Swing Dancing for Beginners Volume 1 offers the easiest and most thorough instruction for anyone wanting to learn both Single-Time Swing and East Coast Swing, the two most popular versions of Swing dancing. Each volume in the series is professional, easy to follow, designed specifically for beginners and fun for everyone. With nearly 1� hours of instruction, multiple camera views, and an easy navigational menu, Shawn and Joanna Trautman will build your confidence and have you dancing along with them� literally. The design of the curriculum and camera placement for the DVDs allows the leaders to do the EXACT movements that Shawn presents, and it allows the followers to mimic Joanna in real time without having to turn away from the screen. In addition to learning along with the instructors with split-screen formatting, you'll also get to dance each dance with music alongside the instructors at the end of each section.This beginner DVD covers everything from the history of the dances, how to do Slow Steps, Rock Steps, and Triple Steps, what the footwork is for both leaders and followers, how to properly use the four connection points specifically for Swing, and how to go from one dance position to another to another, seamlessly. You'll also learn the lead and follow elements to each move, what adding lilt to your body means, how to do left turns, right turns, underarm turns, and much, much more. With nearly two decades of experience, a number of World Champion students to their credit, and their recently published book "Picture Yourself Dancing: Step-by-Step Instruction for Ballroom, Latin, Country, and More", Shawn and Joanna have perfected the basic elements of each dance while specializing in the leading and following aspects which are extremely hard to find. Shawn and Joanna will demonstrate, explain, and teach you to lead and follow the Swing so you can dance anywhere with anyone, rather than just learning a single step that can only be done with your partner. This innovative DVD series teaches the basics and the most essential steps for beginners at a slow and steady pace, which is perfect for gift-giving to friends, family, co-workers, or yourself. This DVD is best used as a starting point that will help you quickly accelerate your way through Shawn Trautman's Swing Dance Collection and/or Shawn Trautman's Dance Collection in its entirety where you'll have your choice of more than 20 highly-rated full-length dance instruction DVDs. Owning this DVD is the equivalent of having your own private instruction at home � over and over and over. If you're looking to learn to Swing Dance from proven instructors and not just see flashy competition moves that are near impossible to execute, then Beginner Volume 1 is for you. Once you're comfortable with this DVD, you'll want to look into Beginner Volume 2 as it seamlessly adds on to everything you learned in Volume 1 to rapidly gain confidence based on consistency and repetition. Aprox 90 mins. (2006) DVD-All-Region.
