How to Get a Dancer's Legs: Part 3 - Curtsy aka Salsa Dips

I call this move a curtsy, simply because it resembles that of the old fashion curtsy done as a greeting or an acceptance to a dance. The aka," salsa dips" is because the first part of the footwork is also similar to the basic step in the salsa.

So, what's it for?

Well, this one move can target the gluteus muscles as well as the quadriceps muscles. When you use the variations recommend in the video you can also get a torso rotation that can help with flexibility and core activation used for to balance. Lastly, when you do several reps it will increase your heart rate, become an aerobic activity and burn more calories! YEA!

:~) I know, I know, I get  a  little too excited about these things.

At any rate, I hope you enjoy this. Feel free to let me know what you think, leave comment or ask a question. I'm here to help!

Stay tuned for the rest of the series...the last one will be a full leg routine that you and I can do together! It's going to be great.
