- **** out of ***** stars Review by Fabio SalsaIsGood
-
If you have followed salsa for a few years, you will surely remember being amazed in the late 90s at Johnny’s supersonic triple back spins, his splits, his acrobatics, his energy plus much more. After many years he has released this DVD, his first and well overdue. I had lost contact with his dancing for a few years and was glad to find him just as ‘crazy’ and possibly even more amazing than before. With his speed intact, the precision of his dancing a great deal shaper and a repertoire widened by rumba and some hip hop tricks, watching him still makes my jaw drop. If you like his style, and LA style in general, you can hardly find anyone to envy more; if you don’t particularly like LA style, like me, you can still be left wondering what kind of technical and physical ability makes certain steps possible.
This is a free-style DVD. The shines are well taught, and well demonstrated, with explanation of all the details. Not that this will make them any more accessible unless you are also exceptionally gifted; nor are the steps material for a night club, but rather for stage performance or for when you are in the mood to impress. Having said that, I enjoyed watching this DVD a lot, though I won’t even try the steps since I know I have no chance, I am only human after all..
