DVD Reviews of Couples Ultimate Dance Sampler (Shawn Trautman's Dance Collection)
DVD Review: Ultimate Buy!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Couples Ultimate Dance Sampler by Shawn Trautman was perfect for me as I've always enjoyed dancing but never learned the basics of these dances. As a young woman, I was limited to the dancing that was only done at college dances and balls. This led me to search for a DVD that allowed me to learn not just one type of dance but a variety. I always thought of the dancing world to be quite intimidating but this DVD breaks it down to eight easy dances that anyone who wants to dance could learn from and use.
What I enjoyed most about this DVD was that it was easy to follow even though I was learning without a partner. It was like having a private dance instructor in my living room teaching me the basic steps at a pace I could follow. Shawn's technique of first teaching the basics and then advancing you to feel comfortable going out on your own is what gave me the confidence to break out of my normal club setting and venture out to new dancing opportunities. It's great having that confidence and equally wonderful knowing which dances I want to learn more of. My personal favorites were the Waltz and Salsa! I have confidence in Shawn's teaching style and look forward to the full beginner DVDs to enhance my dancing skills. I highly recommend this DVD for anyone looking to break out of the normal dancing scene and expand their interests in dance.
DVD Review: Beginners Only
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a fantastic sampler, but that is what it is. It is a great DVD if you want to get an idea of what dance you would like to get more in depth training. For $10 or so, it is worth it. If you already have experience, then you should probably purchase a DVD that includes a program that is for a dancer(s) moving to the next level. DVD Review: Couples Ultimate Dance Sampler
Summary: 5 Stars
We found the DVD to be very easy to follow. It was comfortable to watch (love the split screen) and listen to. The Sampler made it easy for us to pick the dances we wanted to pursue. We'll be ordering more in the future. The other thing we were impressed with was the great customer service.DVD Review: Not as good as anticipated
Summary: 2 Stars
Very basic--- fundamental production values...Should probably go with a video that does not try to superficially cover quite so many styles, but restricts itself to fewer topics but more in-depth coverage and more practice music time.....DVD Review: Not enough time, not enough steps.
Summary: 3 Stars
This movie was OK, but not impressive. Each dance only taught two or three basic steps, and there was not enough practice time with the music to truly feely confident about those steps. My fiance and I did learn the dances, but not without much pausing, stopping, rewinding, and frustration. I am a modern dancer, and pick up movement very quickly, and if it weren't for my ability to break-down and explain the movement, we might not have gotten some of the more difficult moves.
