How to Dance

Maybe this is useful to one who already knows how to dance and wants to learn new dances. For a beginner is useless. It goes over the steps too quickly, and without music. So I cannot follow, and even if I was able to, I would not know how to match steps and music. Which is kind of the whole point of dancing! Many YouTube tutorial are done a lot better. Instead of having fancy camera angles, they stand right in front and they have a mirrored image, so it's a lot easier to follow. They repeat multiple time, which is a lot more enjoyable than doing it by yourself, and they have music.

Too much talking, poor graphics, not easy to follow

Made the waltz, a simple easy dance too complicated to learn on Great Courses, a simpler YouTube video is more effective

We have been taking ballroom dance lessons for many years. Our instructors aren't always up to date on the latest dance types. We found this to be an excellent resource to use as an adjunct to our lessons.

This is great. It is a great introduction to a variety of dance classes.

My husband and I are complete neophytes when it comes to dance. This video is great for teaching the steps to the various dances.

My husband feels self conscious when learning to do new things. I purchased the DVD and he has had us practice in the family room at a slow pace and has felt confident enough to ask me if I want to practice! This is a major kudo for us!

I already know how to dance, but this is a good review of the steps.

I bought this as a present for my wife. It included a commitment that I would spend time with her dancing in the privacy of our home. It is a stretch for me but it is a good investment in our relationship.

My wife and I have started taking dancing lessons and this has been very helpful in reviewing various dance styles. The instructors do a great job of demonstrating and explaining each dance. Improving our technique allows us to have more fun on the dance floor.
