Rating: - Disappointing
Although the instruction was clear, this video was very disappointing. The mixed content (i.e. waltz, foxtrot, and swing) does not lend itself well to an instructional tape. A better choice would be to purchase tapes which focus on each dance. Additionally, I've never encountered the basic East Coast Swing step that Cal teaches; it is unique.
Rating: - very, very, very simple
I purchased this tape and shortly thereafter began dance lessons. Everything Cal covered was covered in the 1/2 hour of the first lesson. Although you are offered a good intro in the tape, it never goes past the very basics of the dance.
Rating: - Forget about this tape. Go for something else !!
I purchased a copy of Carl Pozo's Vol Two - Swing & Slow dances which was available in CD in my country and quite frankly, I was confused as the steps introduced are too basic with only two variations or so per dance. It turned out as I watched further, that he was teaching the Waltz steps which look 'unfamiliar' in my many years of dancing. Subsequently, I think he did the American Tango steps, again it was too basic to be of any use.
I would pass it on to someone else .
Rating: - Good Instruction, minimum difficulty
This video does not really focus on a specific dance (Waltz, foxtrot, etc), but rather instructs dance steps for all occasions and slow music types. If you want to learn a specific dance, I suggest one Cal Pozo's other videos (I liked Salsa Merengue video). The instruction is good and at a beginner level. Professional set & dancers. 50 minutes. Swing dance instruction is basic steps and not too athetlic (Lindy style). Enough to get started though.
Rating: - Amazing!!!
Learning to dance with this video is so simple. My fiance and I went from Laurel and Hardy to Fred and Ginger in about 20 minutes. I highly recommend this video to any lady trying to teach the man in her life to dance, and enjoy dancing.
