Another entry level dance video

"Here is another Mason production that is fine for the super beginner. Dance steps/figures are very basic. The teacher is pleasant, easy to hear and likable.
The purchase price is nice on the budget but the material taught is also very limited. I think that her movements and methods are geared toward the older less physically active dancer.
A serious student should consider spending a bit more for the extensive figures in any of the dvida syllabus videos. Each has anywhere from 10 to 30 figures. The american tango bronze syllabus, for example, has 15 figures and is 145 minutes long.
If our want to order a comparably priced video to the one reviewed here and you are new to dance, I recommend the videos featuring Kasha Kozac and her partner...I forgot his name...
overall Ms. Mason's instructional films seem best suited for the less active, new to dance, over 40 crowd.
good luck and happy dancing
