Basic through advanced moves and steps, instructional videos for dancers
These one-hour lessons are clearly explained for dancers of every level. The beginning videos are
designed to get you dancing and having fun quickly. Intermediate tapes - our most popular - cover patterns that
everyone finds easy and memorable. Our advanced tapes place more emphasis on technique, leading, following, and styling.
These videos are perfect for students (and teachers) who wish to build (or teach) solid technical foundations.
