Wow thats amazing! thats why I didn't see this scene because it looks like it was deleted form the film! ok so there are some problems with this.... he's counting it 234... 234...234...234... really the count is 234...678...234...678... because it takes 2 measures to complete the basic.... counting 234.. 234.. 234.. is more of how a musician would count it, not a dancer... this form of counting "234" is actually whats called "power on2" yes its a form of mambo timing but its a form of mambo timing outside of the context of traditional cuban mambo.... why... ? because they are accenting the second beat yes, but counting this way disregards the "leading step" which is associated with the 2 tones of the conga tumbao or the 4th note of the measure accented the bass tumbao... this is important because this is what gives the tension release aesthetic thats so important for mambo dancing... so what I want you to do is keep this video in mind of dirty dancing but watch this video Ive attached below and see how Eddie Torrez approaches teaching this person on2 mambo timing... specifically listen to how he's counting the timing and how he specifically emphasizes the "leading step (4&1)" in his counting for mambo timing.... after you watch this video I would love to hear your reflections in the chat!
