Advanced Salsa Dance Moves - Getting out of Hammerlocks

Yeah , hi , welcome to the victim , the salsa dot com podcast .

My name is Anthony and , and some of you have asked how to get out of Hammerlock position .

So we're going to give you a couple of those .

So there's different ways to get off out of a hammerlock position one way , assuming we have my right hand behind our back .

So we go into a hammerlock position right from here .

I use an open break 123 and make sure my arms straight so she feels attention and she goes to go 567 .

Ok .

Same thing .

You can go back to a ham lock up here .

Now , imagine if you did another combo where you ended up in this position , same fundamentals apply .

You can use it over R 123 , use my hand to stop her for a copa and get her out 567 .

Ok .

From this angle .

Ok .

If I'm in this position and use the coal with through a open rate , now let this hand go to the side 123 , 567 .

Ok .

And for 112 , 567 , ok .

Do it again , using this hand if you go back on 123567 , another way to get out of a hammerlock a little bit more advanced and complicated .

We use an upper break to get her some momentum .

123 .

I let her turn out 567 .

Ok .

From here I just go back on here .

1234567 .

Ok .

We do it on this side so you can see and we're here for an open R 123567 .

Ok .

And I make sure I have my hand here to stop her ladies .

You have to remember that your job is to maintain the slot .

So since Melati started looking at that side or that side , she has to end up looking at one of the sides .

In this case , she'll be looking at that side right here .

She finishes off 123567 and a one another way here we go , 123567 into a Hamrock .

Now , from this position , I can go into this little tunnel using the uh 123 and then lead to a pro and return .

So here we go .

123 ladies .

You have a good frame and I'm just gonna put 567 .

Try it again .

123567 .

I'm here .

I'm gonna go through this tunnel right here .

123567 .
