I'm in the process of updating my personal thoughts on the Slow & Romantic Dance Sampler. Thanks for your patience as I provide my candid point of view on my dance lessons.

In less time than it takes to watch a romantic movie, you can master five dances of amour as you learn from Shawn Trautman, world-class dance instructor and author, with Slow & Romantic Dance Sampler.

Dances included in this DVD are:

• Slow Dance
• Rumba
• Waltz
• Nightclub Two-Step

Slow & Romantic Dance Sampler is packed with over 80 minutes of easy to follow instruction in a “what you see is what you dance” format. More than just basics and the moves listed above, you’ll learn about connection points, proper hand placements, creating the lead, transitions and combining moves. To further enhance the instruction, a full breakdown of footwork for each move from both the leader and follower perspectives is given.

Filmed and produced with Picture-In-Picture technology from multiple camera angles, you'll be impressed at how simple this DVD makes dancing for you.
