In Volume I, Lisa and Andres present the steps and turns at a pace you can keep up with. They share the "how to's" and "how not to's" for proper lead and follow technique and detail the connecting pieces that are too often left out. In addition, equal attention is paid to both the leads and follows so that you become a dynamic couple and a solid individual dancer. As a result, your Salsa steps will feel more natural and your confidence will grow. This is just the thing for a non-dancer ready to take on their burning dancing desire! In this volume, the following steps are introduced: Basic step Hand positions - Palms Up and Palms Down Body positions - Open and Closed Side to side step Swing step Transitioning between the positions and variations Combining variations Basic turn combination. Numerous practice combinations
With a bit of practice, you will soon become a Salsero.
Instruction for all volumes in the A Taste of Salsa series is given in both English and Spanish.
The next tape in the series, Volume II, introduces more advanced turning combinations, new ways of moving across the floor and focuses more on styling.
Customer Review: Great basics
If you are a novice and looking to learn in a correct and structured way, these videos (Vol I & II) are very sound and easy to understand. The videos are introductory, so if you already know the basics, perhaps they are not for you. Don't pay attention to the criticism of those who weren't smart enough to read the description and look for more information about the videos from the internet or the instructors' website. The videos are clearly labeled basic. That's why they are titled "A Taste of...." I gave it four stars because even though the intent is to make the tapes universal by making them bilingual, it does tend to slow the lessons a bit. Why not use subtitles for the alternate language?
Customer Review: Save your money!
This has got to be one of the worst Salsa instructional videos I have purchased to date. For the price you get very little. It is repetative and annoying. You only learn 3 steps. I would definately not recommend this video to a beginner.
Music plays a very important role in a kid's life. From cradle to the grave our lives are effected by all kinds of music. When I hear music from the 50's, I can sing all of the words and dance the "swing" "jigger bug" and all those famous old moves. Kids are making their memories through music so they can recall their childhood when they hear a Hannah Montana song. When they are middle age and put the High School Musical in the DVD they will be able to sing every song and dance the dances. Kids love to dance and sing all of the songs--just to have good, clean fun. I believe it makes high school appealing to the Tweens because it sits the stage of fun, trust and experiences that will stay with them all of their lives. Believe it or not these productions are not just a movie being released--oh no!
Of course, there is the selling of DVD's, posters, T-shirts and all kinds of merchandise that produces well over $100 million enterprise.
I will be writing about Hannah Montana, and her dad, in another article. Their success is unbelievable. In talking with kids, their comments on the side is "I sure hope she doesn't mess up her life". Kids want a good, clean model to sing with and dance with and so far Miley Cyrus playing Hannah Montana provides this to our kids.
Let me give parents a few ideas on encouraging kids to continue to pick out good, clean, happy models.
1) When your kids dance and sing to the High School Musical or a song from Hannah Montana, get off the couch and join them--make it fun!
2) Purchase the DVD immediately and T-Shirts, etc. to let them know that you think Hannah and High School Musicial is great as well.
3) Pray these role models, that our kids have selected, do not "mess up their lives". If they do, be prepared to talk with your kids about it.
