Cal Pozo wasn't kidding when he titled his video series Learn to Dance in Minutes. Here he breezes through six couple dances and two line dances in 40 minutes; that's about five minutes per dance. Men will find this video most useful since the footprint diagrams teach their part, followed by a male dancing his steps alone. Next a female dances alone and then the couple dances together. If imagining the footprints in reverse is not a problem for female viewers or they have a male partner handy with whom to practice, this won't be a concern. Pozo and his dancers ably demonstrate the lindy, jitterbug, polka, fox trot, mambo, cha-cha, and waltz (as well as basic steps, such as the box step, leading up to these). But the company is at its best when demonstrating the group dances: the macarena and the electric slide. In a terrific display of variety, the dancers run the gamut from a stiff older gentleman to a mini-skirted young woman willing to boogie down. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Customer Rating:
Summary: Useful
Comment: I found this type to give a very quick demonstration of various ballroom dances that will do to give you the basic steps which you should practice in our own time to make them "yours".
Customer Rating:
Summary: It was ok.
Comment: Not bad, though the instructions are not that easy to follow at times, and you have to rewind the damn tape to view it again. Overall, you get your money's worth.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not for serious dancers
Comment: This tape is good for someone who wants to get to know the most basic steps in the 5 or 6 ballroom dances. If you don't know a thing about the ballroom dance and want a sanppy demonstration of the most primitive steps, go ahead and spend the... [money]. But if you are looking for at least a couple of moves in each dance so that you don't look like a robot on the dance floor, this tape will greatly disappoint you.
Customer Rating:
Summary: You learn a lot!
Comment: This is a good tape to learn a lot of dances quickly. The only thing I wish they did differently, was allow more time to practice each dance. As it is now, you only get about 20 seconds to practice each dance. But it is still worth buying because you do learn a lot.

Summary: Don't waste your money
Comment: My partner and I bought this tape in an effort to learn to dance for our wedding. Boy, were we disappointed! He tries to do too many dances on a VERY short tape, and it gets confusing. The foot patterns were somewhat useful, but there were no instructions on how to actually dance together. Learning the line dances was easier but the instruction section is so short and then he immediately moves on to doing variations. It's frustrating to have to rewind the tape every three minutes to practice each segment.
