Mike Bello, once again, provides dancers with the tools and drills necessary to become as one with Salsa Music through rhythm.
This four-hour live presentation covering most of the rhythms in Salsa music utilises and reinforces the material on the Salsa Music, Rhythm, Phrasing & Timing CD .
Four DVD's encompass a full spectrum of rhythm, tools and drills that allow dancers to become fully immersed in salsa music.
Understanding that it all begins and ends with the clave, this program guides you through unlocking each rhythm and recognising each pattern's clave association.
Ultimately, the main focus is to create a connection between rhythm and dance. After the rhythms are revealed and broken down then the dance pattern is aligned with certain rhythms allowing the dancer to feel at ease with rhythm, as well as the music.
Finally, all the rhythms are evaluated during the musical arrangement segment of the seminar where one can anticipate each section of an arrangement with confidence.
Excellent value quad set which works out at just £8.75 per DVD
