Add some kick to your Lindy Hop! Ultimate Lindy Hop Volume 2 picks up right where Volume 1 left off. In this comprehensive three-hour video Daniel Newsome and Giselle Anguizola show you all the basics of the Lindy Charleston, as well as many of the most exciting moves and patterns in the style. Especially geared toward fast music, Charleston is the ideal style to get comfortable leading and following to up-tempo music. These lessons will dramatically increase your swing vocabulary with Charleston-based movements and fluid combinations and transitions from 6 count to 8 count, to Charleston, and back again. Each move is shown with clear a breakdown of the steps, tips for dancing as a pair, and demonstration to music at the historic Triple Door Theater in Seattle. DVD includes: ** side by side Charleston ** tandem Charleston ** traveling Charleston ** 1920s (face to face) ** hand to hand ** crossover Charleston PLUS... original moves created by Dan and Giselle, and some that simply don't fit any specific classification! After taking in the basics, you will learn a series of routines and choreographies that will help you light up the floor! Not only have Dan and Giselle been teaching students worldwide for over a decade, each is known as a leading historian and innovator in the Lindy Hop community. They will show you the authentic steps as they were done originally in the 1930s and 40s, and add their own special twists. At Motion Lifestyle we believe the best dancer is the one having the most fun and aim to make our students the best dancers on the floor. There is no better way to learn the Lindy Hop! Review: For anyone looking for a great swing dance instruction - For anyone looking for a great swing dance instruction, this series is the best.... I have bought lots or swing dance DVD's and courses and most are mediocre at best. This DVD series is exceptional, as a swing dancer of 12 years and a former troop member I believe this is the best instruction for anyone starting out or wants to fine tune their dancing.... every move is broken down and thoroughly explained with lots of angles. So many new moves to learn that I have seen in competition videos but didn't know how to do....WOW Hats off to Dan Newsome! Review: Good for nearly everyone! - I bought this video after purchasing Volume 1. My husband and I went through Volume 1 rather quickly and decided the Lindy Hop wasn't really what we wanted to learn. The Charleston is actually what we had wanted to begin with. This video gives distinct step by step directions on how to do the dance steps. I recommend it for dancers of any ability. We learned the Charleston steps in just 3 nights in time for a party!

You get your money's worth!
With over three hours, one definitely get's their money's worth. Since I knew a few of the routines or knew similar steps, I thought they did a good job teaching them. I look forward to actually getting down learning the other ones. My only complaint is that Daniel seems so serious in all his videos(I have others) - he doesn't smile much. However, if given a choice between smiling and teaching, I'll take his teaching. And I hope that he come out with more videos! This video definitely met expectations. The only reason that I don't rate it higher is that no video will replace the quality (emphasis on the quality) and knowledge instruction of a good teacher (I'm a stickler for finding an instructor that can give you feedback). But in the absence of a quality instructor, this video is great!

Charleston Vocab! Aw yeh.
Well, as someone who lives out where little Charleston is taught, I found this instructional video rather wonderful. Daniel Newsome and Giselle Anguizola blast you with a large amount of vocab. in a short period of time. Using this, I've been able to infuse more and more Charleston into the scene I'm a part of. So, if you're wanting to add Charleston vocab. to you Lindy Hop repertoire, this dvd is perfect for ya.

Next Level
I'm not a totally beginner, taken some classes over the last 2 years or so, thought i was progressing fairly well. Then I decided to get this series (1, 2 & 3 vids total) and it totally took me to the next level. The instruction is solid, easy to grasp and follow, and now my dance repertoire has expanded very quickly! I'm excited to get out and show off the moves I learned. I loved the focus on the Charleston in video 2, and all the advanced moves in video 3 really brought my swing to electric level. Highly recommend for dancing beginners to advanced. Amazing wealth of knowledge in this series. Great bang for my buck.
