Seaon Stylist & Amanda Estilo: Best of Footwork vol II ***/*****

Product Review (submitted on March 9, 2011):
This DVD contains 7 shines, designed by Seaon and Amanda, taught by Seaon and demonstrated mostly by both. The material is quite rich, each shine covering more than 8 bars of music and characterized by moves of disparate inspiration, from classic mambo, to rumba, to jazz and even flamenco. Everything is, as expected, ‘flamboyantly’ Seaon, and both Seaon and Amanda are in their element by showing body and hip decorations which may be too ‘daring’ for more self-conscious dancers, but which you obviously can adapt to your personality, as Seaon himself shows occasionally. The explanation is good, focusing on each component (feet, body, hands), to which Seaon has accustomed us, and, as in other DVDs, he goes through each move several times both from the front and the back, so that you can follow him while watching the DVD. After the explanations either Seaon or Seaon and Amanda dance the shine to music which makes it come alive and shows that even simple moves in the right hands (or feet) can look really special. If you like the rest of Seaon’s production, you will like this one.
