How to “Perrear”

Most people do not know this form of art. This type of dance is popular with the young kids
in Latino America. Me a professional dancer, will instruct you in this beautiful type of
dance. In order to learn how to “Perrear” you first must know what type of music you
should do this type of dance. Reggaeton is usually the first option for dancing with this
style. Not only should you know what type of music you are dancing to, knowing
beforehand the songs you will be dancing will help you in having a better groove of the
music even though most Reggaeton songs sound the same.

On the other hand, learning to move your body to the rhythm of the music is the most
important part of “Perrear”. Because this type of dance is a social dance, you do not want to
make a fool out of yourself by not dancing to the beat of the music. That said the move I
will be explaining is called “Perrear hasta abajo”. This is when you dance with an
individual or a group of individuals moving your hips slowly in a circular motion until
going the lowest point with your hips while maintaining balance. After you are at the
lowest point you go up the same way and continue “Perreando”.
