"I have been a dancer for over 8 years now, and I have started my instructor's training for Ballroom as well. I am always on the lookout for new dvd's that might give new ideas. However, I received this DVD, put it in my dvd player to make sure it worked, watch about 15 minutes of it, and then went online to print out the return paperwork. I do not know the dancer on the DVD, I have never seen her on the Salsa or Ballroom scene, and if I ever do I will not be asking her to dance. The technique she shows is horrid. How she teaches cuban motion is the way we are taught NOT to do it. Ballroom people do not dance salsa that way, native latin dancers do not dance salsa that way, in fact the only people I have ever seen move their hips like they show on this DVD are beginner dancers who don't know how to dance yet. Don't waste your money. There are better dance dvd's both on Amazon and other sites. I would suggest the New York Style Salsa collection here on Amazon, or if just interested in the body movment, anything by Magna Gopal if you can find it."
