Glide across the dance floor with skillful
slow dance
technique and you’ll think more about the
fun intimacy you’re creating than the
timing of a turn. The intimate nature of
slow dance lends itself well to beginner
instruction. It’s very easy to
relax when you’re dancing with a trusted
partner and even beginning slow dancers enjoy
the learning process, laughing at any mistake
and fixing the problem together.
To keep the “fun” in
fundamentals, learn to dance with Shawn
Trautman DVDs. The world-renowned dance
instructor won’t just tell you how to
slow dance – he’ll show you the
steps using multiple camera angles and invite
you to dance along. By the end of each
lesson, you’ll be ready to lead or follow
any slow dance a DJ chooses to play..
- The Slow Dance
for Beginners collection offers students
a natural progression of skills. Clear a
small space in front of the TV screen and
enroll you and your partner in the
day’s lesson. Only have a set amount of
time? Pause the DVD and come back at a later
date – you’ll start the lesson
right where you left off.
- When you venture out into the public slow
dance forum, remember that your dancing
skills aren’t the only prerequisite for
an enjoyable time. If you plan to ask
strangers to dance, make the experience fun
for them as well. This isn’t the time
to show off your moves and leave a partner in
utter confusion. Work together just as Shawn
Trautman taught you to do and each slow dance
will be enjoyable.
