Slow Dancing Starter Pack
Excellent Foundation
"I found these 2 DVD's to be a great starting point for learning how to dance. First, dance foot positions are explained. Next, connection points are expalined. These serve as a foundation for all dances. Furthermore, the dance moves (i.e. Lunge, underarm turns) that were explained could apply to many different dances. Also, there was an excellent review at the end of each DVD to summarize what was taught. This DVD seies would be a great place to start if one has never danced before." - John Christoffer, Milwaukee WI

I just finished writing Slow Dancing for Beginners Volume 1 a moment ago and this mostly applies to the Slow Dance Starter Pack so I'll repeat myself with a few additions along the way.

Slow dancing is largely misunderstood. When I think of slow dancing I think of all the times over the years that I've heard "now that's the way to dance with a woman!" It's not the old "stand and sway" and it's not some raunchy class-less dance that gets lots of attention on the dance floor, but in a bad way. What I teach is a very traditional 'hold me close but don't just stand there and make me feel awkward' dance.

I learned to slow dance in high school. It wasn't from a ballroom or any of the dance instructors that were so-called 'experts'. I first learned by watching my parents and my grandparents slow dance. I never felt awkward watching them; rather it was a 'hey, that looks easy and fun' and something I could do with anyone. When I asked about slow dancing at my ballroom dance lessons, the answer was something like 'sure, here's what it looks like' and they proceeded to show me some big glamorous dance with choreographed steps and big flailing arms. My answer to that was 'thanks, but no thanks'. That's not what normal people do, nor is it something you can do with someone you just met (that was important for me when I was single). If you're looking for that kind of slow dancing, I'd say there are probably a dozen or so other videos on the market that you could get - I have about 10 of them and I just shook my head upon watching as it's just not something I'd recommend to anyone (it reminded me of the lessons I took in a ballroom - just not practical and sure as heck not something I'd do in a club or at a wedding).

In 2003, Joanna and I put together an entire curriculum on slow dancing and spent about 6 months developing it. We put it together specifically for folks that were getting married and their bridal parties and we had a blast with our classes. We taught the slow dancing basics in a way that both the guys and the ladies looked good and felt comfortable. Since that time, we've further developed it and refined our teaching methods and all of it is captured here on Slow Dancing for Beginners Volume 1. In the last 2 years since we released the slow dancing series, we've received tons of letters from folks around the world that have thanked us for finally teaching them something practical they can do without feeling embarrassed.

In the Slow Dancing Starter Pack, it's not just the basics of Slow Dancing that you get. It's an entire lesson plan with many different moves to pick from that you can "pull out" at any time. It provides a great foundation for the guys as it shows them tons of options on what to do, how to do it, and how to mix it up and for the ladies it provides them with a great foundation of how to follow and what to expect from a leader. Everything from how to move together as a couple based on the lead to doing underarm turns and even dips and lunges is shown. It's not an ordinary series on slow dancing and how to romantically sweep someone off their feet. It's a series based on real-life application that I guarantee you'll be excited about the very first time you get to try it at an event where others are watching.

If you're looking for a great dance to get started with that you can use with anyone (or just that special someone), the Slow Dancing Starter Pack is the set you should pick up. Believe me, you'll get more than you expect out of it.Shawn Trautman Dance Instructor
