***** out of ***** stars Review by Salsa Lover
Another nicely produced DVD covering Cuban Rumba. There are not many rumba DVDs around and this one safely rates among the best. The two instructors are both good dancers and good teachers, a combination not to take for granted in Cuban salsa. The content is well organised. First, we are shown 10 basic moves which are used in all rumba styles. Then 10 moves for Guaguanco, the rumba style in which male and female dancers simulate courting actions. Here both the basic moves and other rumba actions are combined in 10 different variations. Finally, we are presented with 10 Columbian variations, which are just for the male dancer. Each move is demonstrated, then broken down by Yoannis and, when needed, by his dancing partner and finally danced to music. As with other Videosalsa.com DVDs, we are offered a pleasing scenery and, more importantly, two different views, so we can observe all details from the front and from the side at the same time and, when needed, some zooming in. The only drawback is that the DVD is in Spanish. I believe you would probably learn quite a bit from it even without understanding the spoken instruction, at least for what regards the specifics of the moves. Other details, like the explanation of the meaning of some moves may be lost, which is a pity since both instructors are clear and natural in the explanation. All together a good DVD .
