Sole Avila was in charge for this last dance, as I have only danced it a few times. What a fabulous job she did! Thank you, Sole, for sharing your expertise with us and your dances! This whole series of lessons would have never happened if you had not come to my October chacarera class and asked, "When is the next one?"
Dance Chart
As usual, the chart makes more sense after learning the dance :-)
Dance videos
Video one: a nice performance, with the escondido starting at about 3:30.
Video two: a bit fancier footwork for you men.
Video three: a classic escondido tune and nice video, even though you can't see their feet all the time. I like it that they are having so much fun!
Video four: nice and clear, with no one in the way!
Music for dancing
Los Manseros Santiagueños- El Escondido
Escondido del amanecer - Los hermanos Toledo
Peteco Carabajal - Escondido en la alabanza starts at 39:48: If you look below the video part, each song on the album can be reached via the clickable list. VERY useful! Plus, I really love his music.
Escondido - Que siga el baile is accompanied by a very cute video of kids dancing.
