Summary: with this dvd i believe i will finally learn how to dance
Review: a step by step (literally) guide to dancing salsa.
there are two instructors, a girl and a guy, and most of the teachings are done by the girl.
the female instructor is pretty knowledgeable (and pretty hot too!), although she didn't seem to have as much swing as her partner. she also speaks perfect english, and have flawless pronunciation in spanish.
the lessons start from the very begining and can get to a pretty complicated level if we start to mix and put together all the steps.
the dvd is really easy to use as a learning tool, because each chapter represents a new step, a new lesson, and they are instantaneously accessed by the remote control.

Summary: At Last: Real Three Angle DVD!
Review: As founder and developer of the All-Music Guide (allmusic.com) and the All-Movie Guide (allmovie.com), I have had the opportunity to review a great deal of music and film. I have been following dance music and videos for years, and Latin music in particular. And that is what moves me to write something about this amazing dance DVD.Being a little bit of a DVD fanatic, I just have to say: FINALLY we have a high-quality DVD with true multi-angle shots! Even if I didn't want to dance to salsa music, I would keep this DVD just to show off my player. This entire DVD, from start to finish, is seamlessly viewable from three angles, which I choose at any time at the touch of a button, viewing everything from the back, the front, and from above. Why have we not seen the likes of this before? And what a great way to learn to dance! This is the best dance video I have yet to see. The three angles give me a 360-degree view of what is going on. If I can't quite get the steps from one angle, I just look at it from another angle and there there they are. This is the way all dance videos should work. The 26 lessons (I am at lesson 7) are clear and easy to follow. The steps are elegant and each lesson is broken out, so I can follow them, taking me from the very beginning (which is where I am at) to quite complex maneuvers. Did I mention that I can see them from any angle I choose? And the music is state-of-the art salsa. Michael Erlewine, founder of All-Music Guide (allmusic.com) and All-Movie Guide (allmovie.com)

Summary: How I learned to dance Salsa
Review: Knowing the type of person I am I would never go to a class. I also wanted to surprise my girlfriend, so I decided to learn in Private. I didn't have much confidence when I first got this DVD, but I was incredibly pleased that it actually worked and worked well. I took my girlfriend to an open Salsa night at a hot spot in NY without telling her that I had been using Dirty Salsa for a couple of weeks. My Girlfriend actually thought I had been taking lessons in Private and didn't believe that I had learned from a DVD when I told her. Now we go every weekend to a different hot spot as we have become regulars. I'm not a big fan of "How To's" but this one is definitely a keeper. Anyone who actually wants to learn Salsa , this DVD will definitely do the trick. I especially liked the three camera angles which made the learning more dynamic. I would recommend the DVD to any of my friends who want to learn Salsa. A+

Summary: A Quick and Dirty way to learn salsa!
Review: The sexy Quick and Dirty Guide is a great DVD that after learning a few steps through the innovative different angles, I feel like I am ready to hit the dance floor! Gigi, the instructor, is clear and easy to follow. The 26 lessons are easy and as they progress, challenging enough for beginners like me. Moreover, the set has a classy and old world feel that makes me think of Cuba, as well as the music.
I never thought that learning to dance salsa could be this fun and easy. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Cuban Miami Salsa style
Review: This dvd has set a new standard for dance instructional dvd's with the 3 angles you can view of all the moves. You can view the whole dvd from the front, back, above angles or just a move.
You can rewind a move & watch it from a different angle.
I also like the memory feature that you can rewind as much of a chapter as you like.
The instruction is from the absolute beginners level through to the most common Miami Cuban Salsa moves.
This is a very enjoyable video to watch.
This has got to be the must buy Salsa instructional video for 2004.
Well worth buying.
