Growing up in a military family, Tristen Epps moved around a lot. But no matter where he was living, Friday nights were sacred. He got to dress up, go to a restaurant, not order from a kids menu, and feel like he was getting to know the place he was living — for now. At home, when his mom taught him to scramble an egg, he was mesmerized by the alchemy; one simple ingredient could transform into so many things. It's that wonder and curiosity that transformed him into the leader, visionary, and Top Chef winner he is today. He joined Tinfoil Swans at the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen to talk about his mission to “un-colonize colonized food,” the freedom he feels cooking in Air Jordans, why it's important to him to celebrate oxtails with Michelin-level finesse, and his belief that cooking has power to correct history.

Mastering the Basic Step to Salsa Dancing 1:48

Embarking on a salsa dance journey? Look no further! In this comprehensive guide, we'll unravel the essence of salsa dancing basics, focusing on the distinctive On1 and On2 timing. Whether you're a beginner eager to step onto the dance floor or a seasoned dancer looking to refine your skills, this tutorial on Addicted2Salsa is your key to mastering the rhythmic art of salsa. Understanding On1 and On2 Timing: The Dance Floor's Rhythm We will explain the timing differences below. 1. On1 Timing: The Classic Beat On1 timing, also known as the "Puerto Rican" or "LA style," places the break step on the first beat of the music. Start with a forward break on the first count, transitioning into a quick pause on the second. Follow it up with a side step on the third count and a final pause on the fourth. As you familiarize yourself with On1 timing, embrace the fluidity and grace of this classic salsa style. 2. On2 Timing: The Power of the Clave In contrast, On2 timing, often referred to as the "New York" or "Eddie Torres style," shifts the break step to the second beat. Begin with a back break on the second count, followed by a quick pause on the third. Transition into a side step on the fourth count, concluding with a final pause on the first beat. On2 timing is renowned for its emphasis on the clave rhythm, adding a dynamic and rhythmic dimension to your salsa dancing. Mastering the Basic Steps: Your Gateway to Salsa Brilliance 1. On1 Basic Steps: Rhythm in Motion Start with your left foot forward, shifting your weight onto it for the forward break. Transfer your weight to the right foot, creating a quick pause. Move your left foot to the side for the side step, followed by a final pause. The On1 basic steps embody the classic salsa rhythm, setting the foundation for a dance filled with flair and expression. 2. On2 Basic Steps: Precision in Motion Begin with your left foot back for the back break, creating a powerful connection to the clave rhythm. Pause on the third count, setting the stage for a side step with your right foot. Conclude with a final pause, perfectly aligning with the distinctive On2 timing. Precision and timing are key in mastering the On2 basic steps, adding sophistication to your salsa repertoire. Your Salsa Journey Begins Now: Dive into the Rhythm Whether you choose the classic charm of On1 or the dynamic energy of On2, your salsa journey starts with mastering the basic steps. Join us on Addicted2Salsa for an immersive tutorial, where we guide you through each step with clarity and precision. Elevate your salsa dancing to new heights, and let the rhythm of On1 and On2 timing become second nature. Embrace the joy of salsa, and dance your way into a world of rhythm, style, and endless possibilities! This mini lesson is from our new iPhone and iPod Touch app called Pocket Salsa .…
