Yuri

Whether you can speak Spanish or not, you will certainly admire the vocals of the best Mexican singers. Hearing them sing will put aside the language barrier, since the songs and the voices are much more important than that.

Yuridia Valenzuela Canseco

Yuri. A famous singer, actress and TV host, and definitely one of the 10 best Mexican singers that has been in the entertainment business for over thirty years. One of her most noted works is her album "Llena de Dulzura," (Full of Sweetness) that was very successful upon its release.

Yuri (born Yuridia Valenzuela Canseco on January 6, 1964) has maintained a significant presence in the entertainment business in Mexico for the last three decades. Born and raised in Veracruz, Mexico, she moved to Mexico City in 1977, for a career in entertainment. She proved that a change of hair color may enhance the Indian image.

Latin Waltz?

There are Western Waltzes, Ballroom Waltzes, Viennese Waltzes and Latin Waltzes. With exception of Western music, little popular music is written in Waltz tempo. But coming up in this century in the Latin countries is the interest in El Valse. Both in the three count and in the chassé, Indian  (You can dance Samba figures to it?) In Viennese Waltz. avoid going up and down as in normal rise and fall of a regular Waltz step. The Viennese Waltz is known as the skater’s waltz. Think of a skater who slides smoothly across the ice - stay as smoothly as possible.

The entire world seems to be more aware of the music and the dance. Many are talking about Waltz music and dancing, but the truth is there really are not that many Waltzes out there that anyone knows of. The average person would be hard pressed to name 5 popular music Waltz tunes (non-western only). Or 5 Western Waltzes. Or 5 Movie Theme Waltzes. As a trivia question, see if you can name 10 Waltzes ... any kind except for Austrian Waltzes (those are off-limits...oh, what the heck, you can include those too. It won't do you any good). In West Oahu it is doing quite well.
