Ron Parker, DE, October 24, 2006

Great for people who've never line danced. The best instruction I've ever gone through!


Product Description

Line Dance 101 is the absolute starting point for anyone wanting to get into Line Dancing. Line Dance 101 is truly a must-see for beginners and is the first of six excellent Line Dance DVD's in Shawn Trautmans Dance Collection. In this DVD, Shawn quickly and easily takes you through several different dances, step-by-step in an order that makes sense, and at a pace set for everyone. This DVD is very effective with clear, understandable, and completely attainable instruction. Following the instruction is easy too, as the instructor teaches to the side and then with his back to you so you can follow EXACTLY what's being done in the same direction and at the same time. Line Dance 101 is also great for all ages!

Never danced before? No problem! This DVD was designed to get folks dancing, looking good and confident in less than 90 minutes. Filmed in HD and complemented by multiple camera angles and Picture-In-Picture technology, this DVD is perfect for bringing the Line Dance class to your living room. The lessons are broken into clear, logical pieces that introduce more than 30 steps in 5 carefully chosen dances specific for learning and practicing. In just minutes you'll learn the Electric Slide, the Cotton Eyed Joe, Slappin' Leather, Ole', and Swing Time. Plus, as a Special Bonus, both Monterey Turns and the 8-count Applejacks illusion are taught. If you're ready to learn and have fun, Shawn Trautmans Dance Collection is the way to go. Order Line Dance 101 today, and be ready to dance by the weekend!

5.0 out of 5 stars The VERY Best Dance Instruction Out There!!!, November 18, 2005
Shawn Trautman is the best dance instructor yet! A great teacher in addition to dancer. I've tried several dance instruction VHS and DVD's (9 in all from Christy Lane, Diane Horner, Teresa Mason, Wiley Hicks, and Cal Pozo), but I didn't stick with them, because they would move so fast that you'd get lost. I would get tired of starting them over and over just trying to pick up the steps. But Shawn makes it so simple to learn, keeping it at a slower pace for the beginner. He also throws in some variations for more challenge. They're so good, I have added 4 of his DVD's to my collection. But his aren't collecting dust like the others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very fun, October 12, 2005
By A reviewer (Florida) - See all my reviews
Wow! I bought this DVD thinking it would be fun to learn something new, and it turned out to be much more. The instruction was easy to follow, the picture was super clear, and the speed went at a good clip (didn't need to press pause, and didn't find myself waiting). I like that Shawn did each move many times, and I could actually get it. I didn't realize how much of a good workout I would get - my legs were feeling it after the 2nd lesson (yea, I'm a bit out of shape). Overall, I had a good time and am looking forward to trying more of Shawn's DVD's. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shawn Trautman's Beginning Line Dance Lessons on DVD, January 4, 2007
My daughter wanted to learn to dance. I looked for live dance lessons locally, but dance lessons weren't provided for her age. I found Shawn's line dance DVD for beginners and bought it. I had done some line dancing over ten years ago while dating, but I had forgotten everything because I got married and stopped dancing. I remember the frustration I had picking up dance steps at the dance hall. If the dance hall I attended offered lessons, it was hard to hear the dance instructors and hard to see the instructors feet(lots of people were blocking my view). In my opinion Shawn's DVD is much better than live dance lessons. He clearly demonstrates basic dance steps for each line dance and provides alternate dance steps to spice it up. It is easy to hear him talk and it is easy to see his feet. The beautiful thing about the DVD format is that I control the pace of the instruction. Shawn's instruction is easy to follow; however, I keep the remote control for the DVD player handy and push the review button if I need to see something over again. I don't feel pressure which makes it fun. Shawn also injects some humor in his instruction which keeps me smiling. I originally bought it for my daughter, but my whole family has gotten involved. I highly recommend Shawn Trautman's Line Dance 101 DVD. You will be able to line dance.
