Elegua: Salsa Cubana vol 2 **/****

Product Review (submitted on June 4, 2012):

In this DVD Elegua teaches us 25 figures of Cuban salsa, plus a few solo footwork patterns to mix with your basic steps, which is plenty of material by any standard. The DVD organisation is simple: each figure is demonstrated and then broken down by the leader; details and zooming are provided only when necessary and the instructions are in French with Spanish subtitles. Nevertheless, provided you do not need too many details to work out a figure, what you see should be enough to allow you to learn all this material, even without understanding the spoken part. The figures span a wide range of difficulty, from fairly simple to advanced; we do not see any excessively complicated Cuban ‘knots’, but the few which are included are executed very well and made look easy by the instructors. A clip of a performance at the end completes the DVD.
