Salsa Dips, Drops, & Lifts | Billy Fajardo

Salsa Dips, Drops, & Lifts is a performance-focused instructional video featuring Billy Fajardo & Henry Herrera, presented by Salsa Racing Dance Studios and Dancesation Studio.

This program features a collection of 12 intricate Salsa dips, drops, lifts, flips, and tricks designed to add excitement and visual impact to performance routines. Billy and Henry break down movements ranging from the Triple Turn Drop and Ankle Lift to the Assisted Back Flip, Shoulder Flip, Forward Walk Over, and Neck Roll into Hip Lift.

The material is intended for professionals, amateurs, and dancers who want to add “wow” elements to Salsa performances. Importantly, these dips, drops, and lifts are not intended to be leadable figures for normal social dancing; they are designed specifically for rehearsed performance and showcase routines.

Because many of the movements involve lifts, drops, and acrobatic actions, the instructors recommend stretching and warming up thoroughly before practice, wearing comfortable clothing and knee pads, and practicing on a soft, suitable floor.

With approximately 42 minutes of instruction, this program provides a specialized collection of Salsa performance tricks for dancers looking to expand their show choreography.
