From the Actor

This is a DVD version of Volume II in the Tango Fundamentals series. Volume II teaches the basic caminadas - variations of the authentic Argentine tango walk, which include the "normal" and "cross-foot" movements, inside and outside partner, combined with changes in rhythm. This second volume (in a series of three) of the Tango Fundamentals course is highly recommended for beginners and ballroom dancers taking up authentic Argentine Tango, as well as for experienced tango dancers as a refresher course in fundamentals.

Product Description

In 10 easy lessons of Volume II (DVD-76 min.), Fabián teaches the Basic Caminadas - the variations of the authentic Argentine tango walk, which include the normal and cross-foot movements, inside and outside partner, combined with changes in rhythm.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice and easy, August 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Tango Fundamentals: Volume Two - Basic Caminadas [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a nice and easy way to get into the world of tango. The instruction is very simple. The progression from lesson to lesson is easy and quick. The quality of production is quite high. The teachers are absolutely superb. Their footwork, movements, and rhythm are amazing to watch. I am not an advanced dancer, but I was able to learn the basic caminadas very fast by using this video.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sophisticated and challenging, July 9, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Tango Fundamentals: Volume Two - Basic Caminadas [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video contains very sophisticated and challenging tango walking exercises that will boggle the mind of unprepared novice dancer. I really needed to go back to Volume 1 of this series to prepare myself to the mental challenges presented by the master - Fabian Salas. Yet, once I practiced early lessons enough times, the seemingly difficult patterns began to become easy, and progress was quick and satisfying. This video is for keeps. No other teacher even comes close. Can't wait for Volume 3.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best in class, August 2, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Tango Fundamentals: Volume Two - Basic Caminadas [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This volume 2 is even better than volume 1. It builds upon the concepts and structures learned in volume 1 and opens the door into the incredible world of Argentine tango improvisation. This instructional video is simply the best in its class. Highly challenging and very effective. Lots of fun too. I am almost ready for volume 3...
