Learn to Salsa Dance Video Series, Vol 1: Salsa Dancing Guide for Beginners

I bought it because of all the great reviews. It is good but for a total beginner I feel there are some problms. On some parts I started "getting it" once I turned the volume down and jsut watched. It seemed that some parts contrdicted (instruction didn't match the movements) what the actor was saying (counting, putting feet "together" and the bouncing); plus, while some parts are at the right pace, the important basic parts they zoom right through asssuming you got it. The dude wears black so it would be better if he were in light clothes against the dark backdrop.

It could be that i am just completely uncoordinated but I think it's geared toward those who have some dance knowledge; those people will know the basics so it'll be easier.

This is the BEST at home tape I have seen. I bought it originally for my husband so he could practice in the comfort of our home so we could go out and dance. He didn't feel comfortable going to a class and we have a small child. I really love it and plan on expanding our knowledge of dancing. The only thing I was not to crazy about is the dark area where it is being recorded at. But we love it.

I really liked the way this video started with the absolute basics and then works its way up into doing some actual moves. It's not intimidating, is easy to follow, and has some great tips on how to look good and look sexy on the dance floor. If you want a great intro to Salsa, this is it.

It's easy to follow and they both give good tips both for the man and the women. Can watch over and over and practice right along with the instructors.

This DVD covers the basics in a simple way for people who know little about Salsa dancing. It was enjoyable and educational.
