The count in can be somewhat difficult at first but you will eventually hear the start point after a few times. The dance starts after slightly over 17 seconds from the beginning of the first words or on count 35. Listen carefully and you will hear the words "besa me, besa me" after the chorus sings "suave". Start on the first beat after hearing those words!
