Can't find the beat? This video goes over basic exercises that will help you improve your rhythm and timing.

Learning any dance is predicated on a student having a sense of timing, and it is much more difficult to pick up steps and figures if your mind and ear are trying to work how to pick up the rhythm on TOP of coordinating your body with it!

Even in a beginner class, the person next to you could have been taking ballet, tap, and jazz for half their life where someone else could play musical instruments, and yet another person might have just LISTENED to a lot of music... either way, their EAR is trained (either actively or passively) to understand some basics of rhythm and music - this video will catch you up :)

This video is geared towards Cuban dance, but the ear training is good for most anyone looking to improve their rhythm and sense of timing.
