Ryan Lochte Previews His Salsa For Dancing With The Stars

Ryan Lochte thought his previous dances on Dancing With The Stars was hard, but, nothing prepared him for how hard the Salsa would be. More below from Yahoo as he preview’s tonight’s dance.

This week we’re doing a salsa. And man, I gotta tell you, I thought the other dances were hard, but phew! Salsa’s got me going. It is really hard.

The music is really fast, so that automatically gets you kind of flustered in your head because you want to try to dance on the beat. And then you have to know your steps, and you have to move your hips, and you have to move your arms a certain way, and you’re swinging your head. So it’s like five different things going on at once, and then trying to keep up with the tempo, so it is just … frustrating! I think this is the hardest dance I’ve had to do.

Quickstep was hard because you’re moving so fast, but before going into this competition I thought the salsa would be really hard for me, and I was right. I’m getting better as the days go on, but I’m missing almost a day-and-a-half of rehearsal this week because I’m going to a wedding, so it’s gonna be rough. I’m really hoping that at today’s rehearsal I’m just 100 percent focused, geared in, so then Saturday at the wedding maybe I can even practice. Hopefully Kayla, my fiancée, will help me. I’ll just tell them to put salsa on! And I can foxtrot, I’ll quickstep, I can cha-cha…
