A young couple tells the story of how they met and how an ’80s Latin music video inspired their first dance.

Introduction

In the early days of their relationship, Gilbert and Company dancing to Latin music in their kitchen envisioned a future where they would be professional dancers. “We used to say, ‘Remember when we made that video in the kitchen? We’re going to do that for real one day,'” recalls Gilbert. “We always joke that our destiny was set in that moment.”

Their dreams came true when they met world-renowned choreographer, Willie Ninjamoves. He recruited the couple to become part of his new dancing troupe, which eventually led them to tour the globe with some of the biggest names in Latin music.

Looking back on that serendipitous meeting, Gilbert says, “It was like the universe was conspiring to make our dreams come true.”

The video in question is of a young couple dancing to the 1984 hit “Oye Como Va” by Mexican rock band Santana. The clip, which was uploaded to YouTube in 2006, has since been viewed over six million times.

The couple, who have not been identified, are seen dancing energetically to the song in what appears to be a living room. They are both dressed in casual clothes and seem to be having a great time.

It is not clear how the video came to be or where it was filmed, but it is clear that it has resonated with many people. The clip has been shared widely on social media and has even been featured on television shows and news programs.

There are a number of reasons why the video might be so popular. The song is iconic and recognizable, the dancing is fun and enthusiastic, and the video itself is confoundingly charming. It’s also a great example of how a simple moment can be captured and shared online, connecting people across borders and cultures.

How the video inspired the couple’s dance

In the early ’80s, a young couple in love watched a Latin music video on TV and were instantly inspired to start dancing. They didn’t know the steps, but they didn’t let that stop them. Thirty years later, they’re still dancing – and they’ve even won a few competitions along the way.

The video that started it all wasFP4+’s “No Me Ames.” The song, which means “Don’t Love Me,” is a classic ballad sung by Puerto Rican artist Geraldo Rivera. Rivera’s voice is both powerful and emotive, and the lyrics are full of yearning and heartache. The video features Rivera singing in a dimly lit room, surrounded by candles and roses.

The young couple, who asked to remain anonymous, were both in their early 20s when they saw the video. They were immediately drawn to the song’s passionate lyrics and Rivera’s soulful performance. “We just looked at each other and knew we had to dance to this,” the woman recalls.

So dance they did – even though they had no idea how to do it. “We just sort of improvised,” the man says. “There was no YouTube back then, so we couldn’t look up tutorials or anything.”

Fortunately, their lack of experience didn’t hold them back. Over the years, they’ve gotten quite good at dancing – good enough to win several competitions in New York City, where they live. They’ve even been featured on TV shows and in magazine articles about Latin dancing couples.

Their favorite part of dancing together is that it allows them to connect on a deeper level than just about anything else. “It’s like we’re speaking another language when we dance,” the woman says. “It’s a way of communicating that goes beyond words.”

What the couple has to say about the experience

We spoke to the couple about their experience filming the music video and what it was like to recreate one of their favorite childhood memories.

“It was so much fun to be able to relive that moment again,” said Luis. “It brought back so many happy memories of when we were kids.”

“I loved being able to share our story with the world,” added Isabel. “It’s a great way to show people that love never goes out of style.”

Conclusion

In conclusion, it is clear that the ’80s Latin music video inspired the young couple’s dance routine. The video itself is a work of art that has stood the test of time, and it is obvious that the couple was influenced by its style and energy. They have created a routine that is both unique and exciting, and they continue to wow audiences with their creative interpretation of this classic piece of music.
