Editorial Reviews
Country Dancing: For Beginners is appropriate for viewers looking for a simple introduction to country dance. The first installment in the three-volume Country Dancing series, this tape provides several brief easy-to-follow lessons. Viewers learn the basics of the two-step, the cha cha, the waltz, and other popular dances. Instructors demonstrate carefully the leading partner's footwork. They also focus on couple interaction, rhythm, and form. ~ Betsy Boyd, All Movie Guide All Movie Guide
