Product Description

Cuba was the birthplace of an incredible number of dances, but the first and most popular was the Rhumba. With the resurgence of Latin music and dancing, the Rhumba is hot again. In this dance, all of the movements happen below the waist. Once you learn the simple steps of the Rhumba, the music does the rest!

Vicki Regan teaches dancing the way she learned, step by step, one move at a time. Everything is carefully explained and demonstrated for both men and women. You'll start with the basics, then work your way up to combinations and moves that are easy to learn, but are very impressive on the dance floor. You'll learn in your own home, at your own convenience, and at your own pace. If you didn't learn a step perfectly the first time simply rewind the tape. You can practice alone, with a partner, or invite a group of friends. It's good exercise and great fun. If you're a beginner, ten minutes into this tape you'll be saying, "I can dance!"

Vicki Regan has danced on Broadway and in the movies, and was National and North American Ballroom and Latin Dance Champion. She has taught many people including other dance teachers and ballroom competitors. Ron De Vito, Vicki's teaching partner, is also an acclaimed Broadway dancer and a former National Ballroom Champion. 60 minutes.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Cuban Motion, August 22, 2002

By	D. Swaney "arizsumda" (Aston, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

One of my favorite dances that I've learned and this video certainly helped. The Cuban Motion, looks a little odd in slow motion, but Vicki pulls it off, can't say the same about her partner however. It helps make the dance and they certainly give you enough instruction on how to do it, probably too much for my liking though. Anyone will know the basics after watching this video, just wish more moves were shown. Would buy an intermediate or advanced tape if they offered it.
Need more moves !!

Still deserves a 4 star rating for it's value to learn the basics of this wonderful Latin dance.

4.0 out of 5 stars We danced a Rhumba, November 28, 2001

By A Customer

My husband wanted to dance a rhumba at our wedding, so I picked up this video. We only took a couple of private lessons, and used the video help us practice. The Dancers in the video are slow and a little corny, but that made it easier to follow. Once we got to the end we were up to tempo and having fun.
