I've been taking Salsa classes for about a month now. Originally it was to introduce something fun for me and my girlfriend to do as I know she likes to dance and I hate clubs. But now I realize I have a lot more to gain with salsa than something for us to do on the weekends. The idea of salsa is very redpilled, the scene is mature and friendly, and most importantly it knocks a woman's inflated ego way the fuck down to normal levels.
1. You lead, she follows. This is drilled into your head in the first lesson. When she dances with you, she does whatever you say. She is your sexy puppet. If she starts trying to do her own shit outside of expected boundaries she's a shitty dancer, period. She doesn't control the dance, you do. Just like a redpill relationship, the responsibility is on you to be a fun and exciting lead. If you're just doing the same three moves over and over she'll get bored. Being competent at your role just screams red pill for both genders.
2. The salsa scene is very friendly and is a good source for dread game. You can go right up to a girl and ask for a dance and she'll most likely say yes if you can lead her properly. It's a great way to meet and dance with 9s and 10s and this will drive your woman's hamster into dread game territories as you progress. If she gets lazy and stops going to class with you this is a shit test and you should simply go alone. She will realize that she'll suck and have to sit idly by and watch you twirl 9s around all night long.
3. Just because you're a smoking hot chick doesn't mean you'll be granted queen status in the salsa scene. A woman's inflated ego built up from thirsty club betas worshipping the ground she walked on is knocked way the fuck down upon entering the salsa scene. Women here are praised for their skill, not just their looks. My girl was very intimidated the first time we walked in there. Women of all ages and looks being validated for skill instead of T&A swaying to the beat with iPhone in hand. I was actually the one dragging her on the floor (unheard of when I have to go to clubs with her), even though I was a beginner as well. Guess who looks like the strong confident leader?
I highly recommend any guy here to start salsa classes (or any other dance style where you lead). It's a scene that can easily tilt the odds in your favor if you're determined enough. Don't by shy about going to classes alone as well. Also, find salsa nights and start going at least once a week even just to observe.

It's just salsa dancing. It's not trashy club grinding. It's the idiots that try to stick around her after the dance is done that annoy me but honestly that hasn't happened too often.
But really you should be secure enough to let her dance with other guys otherwise salsa scene may not be for you. She's the one with the hamster, not you.

This. And my own post about dance lesson few days ago. Thanks for sharing

No problem. Been meaning to share my thoughts about this over the last few weeks. How long have you been dancing? Were you a tool with two left feet at the beginning as well?
[deleted] 12y ago
I am beginning :-) I was so tense I had to take a break after 20 minutes, my back hurt.

Agree. The Lindy-Hop/Blues scenes are just as good (and I enjoy those dances more than salsa).

Amen - bro. Been dancing 2 years now, started with Salsa, with an ex-gf.
Once I got my shit together and could lead strongly she was loving it. She didnt often initiate sex but I definitely remember her pulling my junk out and blowing me while driving home one night. Good times.

Am I the only one on this board that thinks dancing in any form is feminine/ridiculous? Just fucking fuck. Or do something, you know, productive.

Dancing helps in game.
First you isolate the target. She is with her girlfriends and you can tear her away by asking her to dance. Second, you escalate KINO. While you are dancing, you have your hands all over her. Then when you done dancing, you can then move her to the more cozy part of the club away from her girlfriends.

Insecure about our manhood, are we?
Nerd_Destroyer 12y ago
Not at all. Doesn't mean I go out of my way to do feminine activities

To each their own, friend. Personally I find club dancing the lamest excuse of dance out there and if I can provide a classy alternative in an atmosphere that knocks hamsters off their pedestals, so much the better.
Nerd_Destroyer 12y ago
Fair enough. I can agree that clubs are horrible. If you want to knock hamsters off their pedestals allow me to suggest that you participate in activities where they are merely cheerleaders as opposed to fellow participants.

Your good suggestion is not mutually exclusive to mine. Playing instruments work well for this

Hi - Latin, Swing and Ballroom dancer for the last 2 years.
Most of the Latin dances are high energy - if you're not dripping sweat after a fast Salsa you're not doing it right. I view it as Social Cardio.
Dancing seems to self select - dance classes may have a few <7s but because dancing requires some comfort, dance clubs are populated solely with 8+ women.
I have zero approach anxiety now, because I "open" with 5-10 8+s now and close 9-9.5s. The 10's always seem to have a bf/husband that gets dragged along.
Getting a workout and getting hot ass seems productive.

sold on latin dancing. friggin sold.
Nerd_Destroyer 12y ago
Why so you have to jiggle you're hips to do cardio and talk to women again?
Might as well join a pole dancing class

Wow, OK bro - Im just suggesting ways to get multiple things done at once. Non-withstanding structured dancing helps with your spatial awareness and strengthens the associations within your spatial cortex, improving memory, amongst other things.
But I guess haters gonna hate.

Strip yoga and belly dancing classes are different how?
Actual sports are different how?
[deleted] 12y ago
None of them are partnered so don't help with opening / addressing approach anxiety.
I don't get the same opportunity playing Hockey, Baseball and Squash.

How about a makeup workshop? Hot girls, one on one time, and you're taking them off the pedestal cause you see how they look without makeup! Run there for your cardio and you're set!

OK bro, you've made your point. You think dancing is unmanly. 0 fucks given.
