There are some interesting oddities in this video. First, they take you shopping. I'm pretty expert at that; I don't need lessons. Second, in the first few scenes, the dancers materialize on set in Star Trek fashion. It's comical. Third, the girl with the extremely green eyes and low cut dress on the DVD box is not in the DVD at all.
However, despite this, I gave it a somewhat positive rating because the dancers are clear, they have a good style, and they cover most of the basics that can be expected in a beginning tango dvd. The woman is not very verbal, but the man is quite clear in his explanations and demonstrates a very strong lead. The dancing is very competent and they show tango well in classic Argentine style. Though there are a couple of video tricks that amuse, there is generally good, well lit photography and from angles that make it easy to learn.
I would buy it again, even knowing the limitations. |
