"This is the
finest salsa instructional DVD we have ever seen. This three angle
view makes learning salsa so easy. You can view the whole DVD from
the front, back, above angles or just a move. Instruction is given
for both males & females steps. If you can walk you can dance
this style of salsa."

"Our instructor is Gigi, and she (along with her partner Pedro) explain
clearly and simply what they are doing while they are doing it. With a straightforward
attitude and no dazzling effects, they demonstrate the steps with little
introduction. The instruction goes by quickly, which has the benefit of
allowing them to cover a lot of steps, but you'll likely need to use your
skip buttons to go over the steps multiple times before you can match Gigi
and Pedro's pizzazz.
The prospect of multiple viewings is made far more practical by the disc's
great use of DVD technology—not for technology's sake, but to add
value to the instructional content. There are no dazzling effects or camerawork
to distract from the focus on the steps, but the best feature—the
one that sets this apart from many other instructional DVDs—is the
use of multiple angles. You can choose high, front, or back angles to see
the proper technique from all sides, either with a click of your remote,
or by choosing different angles from the main menu. The decent disc menu
gives a list of steps so you can go directly to the one you want to practice,
and offers the option of setting a different angle as your primary viewing
choice (front is the default). Because chapter stops are placed before each
step segment, you can also use your remote's skip buttons to practice along
with Gigi and Pedro until you get it right.
At the end, a brief segment set to music has Gigi and Pedro showing us their
stuff, so we finally get to see the beauty of the finished steps connected
into an actual dance."
