5.0 out of 5 stars Good for starters, July 19, 2006

By 

William M. "dance learner" (East Coast) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ballroom 10 Dance Collection Series 1 (DVD)

This is a good product for those just beginning to dance. It gives basic overview of Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Rumba, Samba, Swing, Merengue, Salsa, Cha-Cha and Hustle. The instructors, Dennis Kalle and his wife Theresa do a good job. Dennis does all the talking with a New York accent touched with New York humor. Theresa is cute but quiet. I viewed and practiced along with the CD in advance of taking lessons with a live instructor which enhanced my lessons. I just wish Dennis and Theresa would issue a "Series 2" advanced CD on the dances they give the basics for on their Series 1 Collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best of all dance videos, March 22, 2007

This review is from: Ballroom 10 Dance Collection Series 1 (DVD)

I have purchased a number of different dance video lessons in the past six year and have much to compare to. For this reason I have to endorse the Kalle's DVDs as the most worthwhile of all. They show enough -- but not too much at one time. They are actually teaching, rather than just talking and demonstrating what they can do. One improvement I would suggest is to show the steps in the inset box from the OPPOSITE side, which as presently used wastes space as it only shows smaller what you are already seeing in the full screen.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great way to get up and start to dance!, April 26, 2006

I had the pleasure of working with this DVD, and I feel as if I know the couple, Mr. & Mrs Kalle, like good friends. Their professional manner, mixed with a relaxinging sence of humor, make this introduction to Ballroom dancing easy and fun to follow. The Kalles have developed their style to dance as well as share that style with their students. Buy it, try it, you'll be happy!
