This is a very nice dance instructional video. I'm a
Salsa fanatic, thus I'm able to pick up the timing
and the concepts in this video. My only comment or
suggestion is that this video should have spent
more time explaining the basic footwork by itself
as most salsa videos do (some people may find it
hard to jump almost right into a close position
push & pull.) They could also rehearse a little about
how they address the audience.

Other than that, this is a video I highly recommend.

I've been wanting to learn the Hustle and was searching for a video to learn the dance. I found this video easy to learn from and they explained the different moves and how to lead each move. I ordered the intermediate/advance video within a week. you will be able to learn the Hustle easily with this video. buy you will like it.

You may want to peek this one on netflix before you buy.

It looks like the video was shot in some ones apartment. They dont play *ANY* music when they demo or instruct steps. He counts some steps in 3 (1,2,3... 1,2,3) and some steps in 4 - music might help clarify. THe moves are organized in a mysterious chaotic order. The guy shows sloppy footwork for a few seconds (looks kinda like jive); but then says that lazy leads can just counterbalance the female instead of moving their feet whatsoever, and thats what he does most of the time. also it appears theres not much thought put into the camera angles.

on the up side. if you just follow along you will actually learn the stuff. and his lazy footwork, simplifies the steps and makes them easy to learn. thats why im giving it four stars. it works somehow.

Salsa dancers may find it easy to learn from this guy. the style is kind of like salsa for dummies.

I liked this dvd. The demonstrations from beginner to advanced were easy to follow. One thing that I think would have made this DVD better is when the instructors danced the summary of the steps they demonstrated, if they had of called out the steps before hand or during the dance, so that you could be prepared to follow along with them.

I am a beginning Hustle dance student, and I bought this video tape to learn the beginning and technical moves. This is an Outstanding 5 Star video tape and I highly recommend it. (I also bought the same title, Intermediate/Advanced and it is also Outstanding 5 Stars.)
