Testimonials

"It's almost two months since I started training with the Salsa Timing exercises DVDs, one month with the Bachata series and today I just ordered a few more DVDs. These Salsa Is Good DVDs are more than fantastic, they are unique. They include all the information I couldn't find anywhere else (I searched quite a while). Precious data that help me to progress very quickly alone, at my own pace whenever I want. In my opinion rhythm is the main first element for dancing. I had a 'serious' problem with rhythm, thanks to these DVDs, I don't have it anymore. Of course a serious practice is required to get the full benefit of these DVDs. An advice: don't spend hours the first week you receive the DVD and never again after. Just put the DVD on every time you feel like it. Through time, the exercises which didn't seem interesting the first week will become interesting and bring you their benefits." (Art, artsski_at_yahoo.com)

"I’m now the proud owner of the DVD’s Cuban Salsa for non-Cubanos, the Salsa Timing DVD and the Bachata DVD’s and as thanks for your good work I put a small ‘ad’ in my weekly newsletter which will published next week: http://www.salsalocos.nl/mail/2008/nieuwsbrief_193.htm (in Dutch so you will don’t understand I was writing J). In sort, it is a recommendation to buy your DVD’s!!! Keep up the good work and I’m looking forward to new projects from you!!!" (Salsa Locos, info_at_salsalocos.nl)

"I have to tell you that your work is the most original and unconventional out of all dance DVDs that i came across and i'm familiar with quite a few of them (most but not least salsa). ." (agrouza @ gmail . com)

"I think salsaisgood has the best online when it comes to the foundation to be able to learn salsa with confidence. Thank you´ll so much for an easy and secure purchases online" (Milton Hebbert <miltonth 198 at hotmail com)

"I want to commend on the excellent DVDs you offer through your website. Your products offer an ingenious remedy to an unfortunate gap in the market place for Latin Dance instructional material. There are seemingly countless DVDs on how to do fancy turn patterns, but almost none that actually teach you how to connect with the music and actually dance as an individual...... Your products stand out in that they focus on the music and thus promise the best path for transitioning from mechanical execution of pre-planned patterns to actually moving with the music. I am a LONG way from accomplishing my desired goals, however with your videos, I at least feel like I have the right tools for achieving my goals. Finally, I thoroughly enjoy the demonstration clips you provide in several of your videos. For example, Jeff, Rudsell, et al in your Bachata videos and Stacy, Lucy, et al in Salsa on the Spur of the Music DVD. I found their performances to be very inspiring and eye opening. Before seeing their performances, I would have been content with simply learning slick turn patterns without concern whether the movement of my body actually reflected the spirit of the music; now I aspire to actually move and flow with the music (at least ). Indeed, their demonstrations changed the way I view dancing. Thanks again for all of your help and I will continue visiting your website regularly in order to make sure I don't miss any new products you offer in the future. " (danielglab at gmail point com)

"These three DVD's [Salsa Patterns, Figures & Moves... 66 turn patterns in 3 DVDs] provide easy to follow salsa and merengue dance lessons that will never grow old. The dance steps will greatly improve your dance style. The phrases and counting method used ensure the steps are easy to follow. The most amazing feature on this DVD is the ability to program the views. This means you can view the dance steps and moves from different angles providing the means to learn better and more easily. The different views make it possible for you to see the steps and practice as if an instructor were next to you. These DVD's teach about 50 or so dance steps, which is an incredible amount of moves to add to your repertoire. As we know dance instruction can be expensive, which makes this DVD set excellent value for money. " (Giancarlo, Giancarlo.Pfeifer_at_icap.com)

"I love Salsa is good because it has products that are unique comared to other websites, it's a broad base of material that covers a wide range of Mambo topics. I have had bad experiences where I have ordered dvd's from websites and never received the dvd or a refund, but when I had aproblem with my order Salsa is Good responded to all my e-mails and resolved the matter quickly, what great customer service. Thanks Fabio. I will be ordering from Salsa is good again" (wayne, waynefig at msn com)

".I am a Salsa enthusiast and have been looking in the web for good classes. I come across this site and write to contact us, and here comes Mr.Fabio who guided me to purchase few DVDs based on my level of understanding rather than wasting my time and money. I shown him one youtube video and asked him if he can tell me what it is and how to learn, without any ego he advised me to contact another mentor who is familiar with that style. Forgot to mention, after payment i was having trouble downloading DVD from there server. I was so disappointed and disturbed Mr Fabio with my emails. He was so good that he even uploaded the video to my upload link provided by me. I would say my money is worth his patience itself. I am so moved with his honesty, quick response and dedicated service."y" (raam 4u hotmail dot com)

"I received the DVDs and very pleased with them: they are really good in terms of quality, type of “combos” and different angles to show each move in great level of detail. The indicator of the beat is also a very good idea and I think it is one of the original ideas of your series that I haven’t seen in other videos." (Giancarlo, Giancarlo.Pfeifer_at_icap.com)

"Thank you for the follow up e-mail . This the the second time I have got DVD's from you . I also bought the Salsa for non cubanos , and yes I 'am very happy with all my dealings with you . The delivery was exceptionally quick and I love the new Bachata series. I can't believe how much bigger it made the dance for me if that makes sense. I really haven't even gotten too far into them, as there is so much material there , and I have already gottten my monies worth. I 'am planning on ordering your new 2 DVD Salsa personal training series also, so I can guess you can say I 'am very impressed. I have been dancing ballroom and swing for years and have plenty of instructional DVD's and yours are by far the most unique. They really have become my personal favorites.

I think that you are selling what you are telling which is important. ... I can say that your Salsa on the Spur of the Music, Salsa with the Stars 1+2 and Bachata Caribbean Style 1+2+3 are, simply said, beautifully made. I am really delighted.

"I must say that the DVDs are absolute genius, I love them! The different interpretations of the ideas by your array of top salsa pros is a unique idea, and adds immensely to the whole thing. It will keep me busy for weeks and weeks, and I haven't been able to say that about an instructional DVD for a long time!! (Jamil, jamil_at_cantab.net)

"The DVDs are outstanding. .... The amount of work you all did in scouting, teaching and filming the videos was tremendous, and it paid off. I really enjoy watching the different interpretations by all of the different couples, on 1, on2 and in rueda. I'm so thrilled that I stumbled across your website!" (Ana, dolphan56_at_hotmail.com)

"I received both of my orders, (Advanced moves & Dancing with the Stars), and I am extremely pleased with both DVDs. .... The Dancing With the Stars DVD is particularly instructive because we get to see expert interpretations/variations on the patterns. As you state in the DVDs, there is enough material to keep me and my dance partner busy for the next several months. In short -- these are fabulous DVDs and I can't wait to purchase the next series!" (melissa, mwest92_at_hotmail.com)

"I am delighted. The content is as described on the advertising. I really like seeing the different interpretations of the same moves by the different stars. All the moves choreographed were interesting and unusual, which appealed to me as an advanced dancer. Many expert salsa dancers demonstrating the same moves so the viewer can be inspired. This is excellent. The production quality on the DVDs was better than I expected. I have seen many Salsa DVDs and they are usually fairly low quality. This was better than the average. "
(Peter, easyburner98 at yahoo com)

"I've been really enjoying the DVD's - what an excellent concept! I'm not surprised that the best dancers wanted to be involved."
(Valerie, maxville_at_iinet.net.au)

"I started going through Salsa with the Stars with my private dance teacher, I love it! I love the concept! I love how it shows different interpretations of a routine and that there isn't just one way to do something, and that you can style and be creative to make it your own rather than just memorize a specific combination of moves. I also love the detailed slow-motion explanations and the juxtaposition with the original routine. Having lots of fun with Salsa with the Stars!"

"I received your dvds and they are extraordinary. Thank you very much for realizing so good idea and letting all over the world to see it. Thank you!"

"Wow!  That's all I really need to say about Salsa with the Stars.  You have done an incredible job, Fabio.  This is easily the most exciting salsa video I have ever seen, and is sure to be a hit among true aficionados of salsa.  I think the reason it works so well is because these world class dancers are offering variations on the same idea.  So you really get a picture of what makes these dancers unique.  Congratulations, Fabio!  These videos have kept me entranced for weeks!  There is so much to love about them.  To start with, the music is perfect.  Jimmy Bosch is great and the music during the patterns is very catchy.  The variation among the stars is also superb.  I was impressed to see respected veteran dancers like Ishmael, Season, Duplessy and Amanda Estilo, as well as the fresh faces on the scene rapidly garnering the worldwide esteem they deserve.  I was also happy to see faces from around the globe including Australia, Cuba, France, Korea, and the Dutch Antilles.  It's nice to know that the dance is beyond borders.  I also have to say that I was impressed by the high level of talent in the followers.  So often videos are neglectful of half of the dance.  Not only is there a lot for leaders to pick up, but there is just as much for the ladies.  I recently showed the videos to a very good friend of mine who is really starting to pick up the nuance of styling, and she loves it.  She is particularly enamored with Ana Massicot who I also belief is beyond words. " (Dave, Dmfuerte_at_aol.com)

"I wish to say great job on the Salsa with the Stars DVDs. I am impressed that you were able to get that many great dancers on one disk and I enjoyed your novel concept of having each couple reinterpret your original turn pattern." (Christian, Christian_at_smdi.com)

"The DVDs are quite a challenge. A very nice feature is the different options of the same "idea" (and eventually the whole turn pattern) in the different styles.... These DVD's are well made and propose a whole lot of new concepts for the avid salsa lover" (Bob, bob.van.laerhoven_at telenet.be)

"Your DVDs are very FAN-TAS-TIC. And delivery is perfect." (Antonio, posta_at_antoniocimino.it )

"Best bachata DVD of all" (Dennis, dennisrichards_at_yahoo.com)

"I think that the Bachata DVD 3 is the best one that I have so far. Let me tell you why, The exercises that are included in the video and the counting are amazing. They really help someone get the dance down. I am a teacher and could really benefit from a breakdown of moves like that and more importantly exercises that I could use for my students" (Koronata, http://au.youtube.com/user/koronata)

"The Caribbean bachata is an amazing set of DVd's classes here are superb great teachers including musicality as well. These caribbean Bachata Dvd's where simply the best investment made in any DVD series out there outstanding quality and dancing! This is a must for anyones dance collection" (Robin, envirogen_at_yahoo.co.uk)

"[i DVD] di bachata che sono davvero eccezionali: ottima didattica e maestri validi e professionali. Anche le spiegazioni che fornisci in sfondo sono chiare e comprensibili. Non posso che esprimere una sincera soddisfazione per l'opera tutta e sarebbe bello che questi ballerini fossero da queste parti"
"[your Bachata DVDs] are really exceptional: very well taught by very good and professional instructors. The voice-over instructions are also very clear. I can’t help but express my full satisfaction for this work and it would be just great if these dancers lived closeby"(tomascrociera_at_inwind.it)

"content is amazing; my dance partner has already noticed a positive change" (Patrick, ashby @ rogers com)

"I love the new Bachata series. I can't believe how much bigger it made the dance for me if that makes sense. I really haven't even gotten too far into them, as there is so much material there, and I have already gottten my monies worth" (dg.46_at_live.ca)

"Yeah the Bachata DVD is awesome. I love all the thought and detail you put into everything. It's as if it was produced by some one that actually uses dance DVDs. Thats why I jumped off the fence, and placed an order for that salsa practice DVD." (joshua _darlington_ at_yahoo dot com)

"Recently I had the time to watch your DVDs carefully, and I have to say that they are really unique, you did a great job which “gives justice” to Bachata. The way in which the work is organised, Method, Demos and Exercises is truly ideal to learn. It honestly made me fell like dancing form the very first minute. The third DVD (Exercises) is outstanding for practising: the option of choosing an exercise depending on the content and speed allows to really learn all movements easily. Now I want to spend a few months on the exercises, I think it will be necessary to practise for a while (in particular for the ‘arm coordination’ which is essential). What I like most of this work is that it transmits the desire to dance and to learn (my girlfriend is from Panama and she does not like the way people dance Bachata in Italy and as soon as she saw the DVDs she said “this is Bachata!”. Every time she sees the DVDs she starts to dance and to try the exercises). I will now share some of my impressions in some forums, so that other people can also be aware of these DVDs." (luca, luca_at_venetiastudium.com)

"Just a quick note to say a yes, I have received the DVD's, and a thanks for producing such a wonderful exposition of bachata. I have been unhappy with the way the dance has been taught in this country, limited to sideways tramline movement, great emphasis on the hips for men and women - especially for beats 4 and 8. The dancing in the DVD was a revelation, and beautiful." (John, axqo27_at_dsl.pipex.com)

"devo farti i miei complimenti: hai realizzato un'opera davvero eccezionale ... per tutti coloro che vogliono imparare a ballare la BACHATA DOMINICANA! In primo luogo hai giustamente dato la dovuta importanza all'apprendimento del tempo musicale, aiutando a capire come i diversi strumenti musicali scandiscano in modo diverso il tempo ed il ritmo nelle diverse battute, poi hai scelto dei ballerini davvero forti! ognuno di loro ha uno stile diverso e stupendamente coinvolgente, infine ottimo anche il metodo di insegnamento tramite i parecchi esercizi impostati, molto utili per imparare a ballare la BACHATA DOMINCANA secondo lo stile che uno predilige, ed opportunamente suddivisi dapprima in ritmica rallentata e poi al normale tempo musicale.Finalmente posso allenarmi pe imparare a ballare la Bachata come i Dominicani. . . anche perchè dalle mie parti nelle scuole di ballo insegnano a ballare una bachata che definirei da liscio (all' europea) . . . nulla a che vedere con la vera bachata.
[Congratulations, you produced an exceptional work, for anyone who wishes to learn Dominican Bachata! First, you correctly gave the due importance to the comprehension of the musical time, helping to understand how the different instruments mark the time in different bars of music. Then you chose some really cool dancers. Each of them has a style which is both diverse and compelling; finally, I also really like the teaching method via the exercises, very useful to learn Bachata according to the style one prefers, and suitably organised in a slow motion and normal speed sessions. For once I can practise in order to learn Bachata like Dominicans dance it, especially since where I live most schools teach a Bachata style which I would define ‘European’, with little resemblance to the 'original’ one]" (Luca, studio_at_visintini.net)

"I've received the Bachata dvd and must say i love it! I've been searching for this type of dvd forever. The breakdown is great and easy to follow. The service was quick! I definitely will be ordering other selections and will highly recommend Salsaisgood to anyone looking for great instructional videos" (Cheryl, csmith 0902 @ yahoo dot com)

"I've just received the DVDs!!! What a wonderful job, amazing.... I'm very very satisfied." (Julio, http://au.youtube.com/user/jabaito)

"People noticed the difference in my bachata right away from the bachata video series" (samuel phillips outlook com)

"reçu très rapidement ! Ils sont lisibles sur les lecteurs DVD français, et on peut choisir la langue française. Donc aucun soucis ! Le contenu est génial, l'approche originale" (Fabrice36270 gmail com)

"These DVDs are excellent and much better than was expecting." (Leonard, leope_at_live.com.mx)

"They are very cool DVDs.." (abramofarah_at_yahoo.it)

"Congratulations, the 3 DVDs could not be better, both at a demonstrational level (with top dancers) and at exercise level (thanks to the clips at normal speed and slow motion). I am very satisfied of my pourchase" (Alessio, alessio47_at_alice.it)

"This is our recommended Must buy dvd series on Bachata. This is the finest series on Latin dancing we have ever seen. Salsagood has done it again by producing the first Master level instruction dvd on Bachata. This series is packed full of demo's, instructions, technical tips on dancing Bachata. This series go's from beginner to Master's level Bachata dancing. This series gives away the secrets of Master level Bachata dancing. This series is called Caribbean Bachata dancing but it also contains the steps of the two other authentic major styles of Bachata we know. Each dvd is great value for money but we do recommend you buy the whole series to become the best Bachata dancer or teacher you can be. These dvd's are the best quality & the longest instruction dvd's on the market. The dvd's are so packed full of moves it will take you years to learn all the steps & tips. This series is Real Bachata instruction not a Salsa Bachata mix. This series contains tip's from one of the World's best Bachata dancers. We had given up dancing in nightclub's because of the bad Salsa Bachata mix dancers dancers on the floor now I think in a year or so real Bachata may come back to the dance floor. Thank you Salsagood.com." (Neil from http://salsavideoreviews.org/ the largest latin DVD review site on the net)

"These DVDs are well thought out and well executed, and best of all, amazingly fun. I trust SalsaisGood.com to deliver quality products, and they have done so over and over again. In the dance realm, that is high praise indeed! Best of all, their products are designed to educate! They just don't show off fancy moves, but break them down, and take things step by step, so the end result is ... you end up learning! Only the top dance instructional DVDs in the world can claim that" (www.SalsaCrazy.com, Producer of the Bestselling Salsa Dance DVD Series in the World, for the last 4 Years)

"I received your DVDs yesterday, and I've passed the whole evening to watch them. I think they're stunning,great,fantastic. There's so much material to study on that I'll be busy to learn advanced bachata for the next 2 years :). The dancers are great, they're really skilled, the way they dance is very different from the one I've seen here in Italy, no need to use figures, just feel music and dance.Great." (Andrea, andrea.dep_at_ilgeko.net)

"As an intermediate/advanced salsa dancer, I’ve always found it difficult to find good instructional DVDs. And finding bachata DVDs that are worthwhile has been next to impossible – until now. Your new 3 volume bachata set really gets the feel of the Carribean, just like the title suggests! I love it!" (Bill, Bill_at_stocktakingwa.com.au] )

"... i am very happy with the videos. for me a totally new style of bachata and one i like a lot more than the typical pattern following method you see almost everywhere" (tito, thorst74_at_hotmail.com)

"We recived the DVDs very fast and are very very happy with them. I teach salsa my self and my students are happy with the new inputs I have gotten from your DVDs. I look forward to your new products." (Louise, bgswe_at_hotmail.com)

"I found it to be very interesting and an excellent value. You did an exceptional job in the technical execution of the DVD (this is the first DVD in your Bachata set). The narration was also very good and very helpful. The dancers are all very interesting to watch." (stacy, sjcannady_at_yahoo.com)

"I really enjoyed the Bachata series ... these DVD’s really reinforce that style. It is so much more elegant and tasteful than the way a lot of people dance Bachata in the clubs. My son is 16 and has been taking salsa classes with me for a while and he loves the DVD’s as well" Melissa, melissa.lofton_at_christushealth.org)

"[the DVDs] are all well written, thoroughly researched and inspiring! Great location and fabulous dancers that have tons of natural flair. I like the way you’ve analysed the different styles and techniques and encouraged students to draw inspiration from this to find their natural path rather than simply mimic or memorise a routine. It’s good to know about the music and the instruments involved. I felt really inspired to move and interpret the music in a more ‘Dominican’ way at every opportunity! Watching the demos I couldn’t help but wish that I could dance like Candice and meet a Jeff to dance with! This just doesn’t happen here! The exercise DVD is really challenging and you’re quite right to state that you have to stick with it and persevere. I’ve persevered and have now down several weeks of teaching my students some of the syncopations and footwork in your DVD. I’ve had mixed reactions from my students. Most have loved trying a different style and have enjoyed the challenge. Those who’ve been to the Dominican Republic were really happy to see this style in London as they couldn’t associate the [other instructor]'s style with the DR. The students that haven’t really taken to it are the less experienced dancers. They’re at the stage where they just want to learn basic European style routines so that they can feel equipped to go on the dance floor when a Bachata track is played. The UK is dominated by those wanting to learn routines. Even if they can’t remember or reproduce any part of the routine in a real life situation, they enjoy being in a group that is all learning and practising the same sequence.... It won’t be long until everyone will be wanting to practise freestyle Bachata which is so brilliantly shown in your DVDs" (Anna Scalera, London-based Bachata Instructor, annascalera_at_btinternet.com)

"i love it (Volume 3), It teaches me alot of things." (Ryah, bombinito_at_yahoo.com)

"The thing I liked the most about the bachata-DVD's was that you included examples of different styles within the dominican style, so that both I and my partner could see something we liked and wanted to have as a reference for the new movements. I also enjoyed the explanation of bachata music, and I will continue to watch the DVD's and hope that my sense of bachata will evolve and let me find my own steps that fit perfectly with the music I listen and dance to" (Pard, emsopard_at_hotmail.com)

"We (my girl friend and I) have enjoyed the Bachata DVD’s! Especially my girl friend is watching (and training!) a lot to get the Bachata skills in het head and body…." (Salsa Locos, info_at_salsalocos.nl)

"Just a quick thank you mail for sending the 3 Bachata DVD's so promptly. The DVD's are obviously a labour of love on your part, I've just had one quick look at them as I've been down with the flu but there are some amazing dancers on them and the production quality is very good too. Your explanation of the make up of the band and the music was very helpful for one thing. I appreciate the fact that you have done them from the standpoint of interpreting the music and not just done some moves and turn patterns as most DVD's and latin dance teachers seem to do. That has a place I suppose but as I've only been dancing about 1.5 years and I'm middle aged, I've found it quite annoying that it seems to be mostly all there is that passes for latin dance teaching. As someone who has teaching experience, I find that a very poor way to go about it and it seems to permeate the whole way latin dancing is taught. So your emphasis on rythm, the make up of the music and getting the whole person more atuned to dancing etc was very refreshing and as I say quite rare in my experience, so I wish I lived nearer and could do some lessons with you. …. Anyway I just thought I'd to let you know how lovely the DVD's are and reflect that your evident love of Bachata was great to see as well. I seem to have fallen in love with the music and the dance and it was great to see all the time and love you had put into the DVD's to make it available to others like myself as well" (David, davidnys123_at_yahoo.co.uk)

"Anyone learning Bachata for the first time, this is how it should be done, these discs show you how to practice so you can dance with style and flair probab the only tutorial discs you will ever need." (Robin, envirogen_at_yahoo.co.uk)

"Everything is great, the dvd [Volume 3] is superb" (klocc_at_bigpond.net.au)

"I recently ordered the 3-disk bachata set from SalsaIsGood. I LOVE it. The dancing and instruction is excellent and the layout of the disks is great. My husband and I have a large collection of dance DVDs. And after my husband saw the first of these SalsaIsGood bachata videos, he remardked that it was the best video we had seen. And it is. I love the structure: the technique and theory explanations, the musicality discussion, the demos, and the exercises. The exercise DVD is fantastic. I already feel our bachata improving. Thanks for a great product …… The more I watch the demos and disk 1, the more I enjoy them. They really give a feel for bachata. And like disk 1 says, the instruction is freer and more creative. It's not about patterns as much as really understanding the dance and dancing to the music." (Clare, xchampx_at_hotmail.com)

"I was looking for material that realy explains how to dance bachata in a different way, not the one that we can usually see here in Spain (the way I also dance until now). I think that you have done a great job, firstly explaining the concepts (CD 1), and thereafter with the demos. CD 3 is incredibly useful for training" (albertodpl at hotmail.com)

"I watched Volume 1 (The method) and I must say that indeed “my Bachata will never be the same”. Really very beautiful. Very nice DVD and excellent work: top dancers and clear explanation. I give it a 8.5 over 10 (and I am notoriously very strict!)" (Simone, troy12bayliss_at_gmail.com)

Once I get this bachata down, then I'm sure I'll be looking at your salsa videos next! " (Ritch, ritchalvarado_@ yahoo.com)

"I realised when I came across the trailer ad for these dvds that they were going to offer a different style of Bachata (that you see commonly taught in most latin classes) and way of learning it. I wasn't disappointed. This style suits my dance personality better as it allows more freedom and creativity for both partners rather than remembering endless moves and routines. This DVD has already changed the way I feel about Bachata and makes it more fun to dance.... I just need to practice the well thought out exercises now! A lot of hard work has gone into this DVD and I would happily recommend it to anyone wanting to learn Bachata..... it's not easy but the end result is worth it! " (kwai at clancuban.co.uk)

"The Timing CD is awesome. It has already taken my dancing to a new level...... The timing set is a must have for dancers of all levels. Thank you for making such a great set" (masonthomas_at_aol.com)

"Thank you so much for your work.  I just finished watching "Salsa is Good - Salsa on the spur of the music" and it has completely changed the way I view dancing and leaning salsa.  I've been taking classes for a year in Bermuda and your DVD has helped me to only just begin the journey of truly feeling the music when I dance.  Particularly the dance clip at the beginning of Stacy Lopez dancing with his wife.  I've watched this clip numerous times and shown it to all my friends.  It is truly inspirational, I went dancing later in that night and I swear I could feel a difference" (Jamael, jamaelt_at_gmail.com)

"super CD Salsa on the beat - exactly, what I was looking for." (The customer wishes to remain anonymous)

"Your "Salsa on the Beat" CD is excellent. Like many other people, I went through months of Salsa lessons, but did not have a clue of how to hear the beat or how to find the 1 and 5. Your CD helped me understand what to listen for. Now I can find the 1 and 5 in most songs. Dancing on time is still a challenge, but I am making progress. At least I hear the beat." (Karl broomekf at earthlink . net)

"A must to have CD for people like me who just can't understand the beats. It made a huge difference to me. I never knew what I was looking for, when listening to a salsa song. I could dance to the counts, but the moment a music is ON I used to be lost. Now I know and I am happy that I decide to buy the CD. It is really worth it..... " (Anil)

"I thought the CD was outstanding. For years I struggled to find the "one" in salsa. Finally an instructor told me about the Salsa is Good CD.
I listened in the car on the way to work each morning for week. I now can find the "one", the "two" etc.
The instruction is clear, helpful and for those of us with no music background a huge help.
If this CD can help me find the "one", it surely can help you. I highly recommend it to all aspiring salsa dancers..." (Andrew, andrewdfeldman_at_gmail.com)

"The DVD is wonderful. I love that way it explains the different instruments and Stacy and Lucy the effortless way they dance with joy. " (Elva, ElvaRamirez01_at_hotmail.com)

"As a starting point of every effort related to the salsa dance I consider Salsa on the Spur of the Music, because you answer the basic
question: What the dance is? When students (and teachers as well, of course) know this, then they can progress in a proper way and enjoy dancing soon. Because many of them have an idea, that the dance means figures. This is even supported by amateur teachers… Certainly I can say that you are not selling "vacuum" like many other "instructional DVDs" producers successfully do" (ondrej.durej_at_gmail.com)

"..we are right into salsa on the beat and salsa on the spur of music, and both are great! So far we had no time to look into the other dvds, but these two alone are worth it!" (Sam, sam_at_radeldudel.de)

"Your CD is excellent – I am playing it all the time when I am in the car. It is strange ... Then, I go to your DVDs to learn these instruments at home. I can feel that I am getting better at catching the beat, but I still have long way to go. It is fun and fulfilling exercising with your DVDs and listening to the CD. Thanks for your great works. I will look forward for your Vol 4 DVD!!!" (Velmani, pvelmani gmail com)

The voice-over explanations for timing to each instrument, the breakdown of each instrumental and its synchronization with the clave, and the voice-over count, made it possible for me to understand the actual structure and individual components of the salsa arrangement. My dancing has improved 100 percent. I recommend this product to anyone having trouble with salsa rythmic timing or who simple wants the music and how it is danced to" (William, w.i.robinson1_at_gmail.com])

"....Besides teaching Salsa several times a week, I am also taking teacher training in San Francisco and I recommended your CD to the instructor. She played several tracks during our class last Monday. Then one of the trainees who bought the CD a couple of weeks earlier told them how much she loved it. Well, it was a pretty convincing testimonial so right afterwards, almost all of the trainees wanted one! The instructor even bought one herself. I actually haven't heard anyone yet say anything negative about your CD......" Roger Yamat, Salsa Instructor, US, rogeryamat_at_hotmail.com

"I have well received your DVD within 5 days after your order confirmation and i am really very happy with it.
I will tell you why i am happy with it; I am following lessons cuban salsa for about 2 years and we all know a lot of figures BUT almost everybody have sometimes problems of dancing on the right rhythm. For me personnaly it is going very good on some salsa songs but somethimes it is very difficule to hear the right pattern...this is certainly a big issue when you have a live cuban salsa band who sometimes change the pattern and than i have problems. With your DVD i learned that you always can find your beat with help of the different instruments..and indeed i went to some salsa partys and i felt more secure and i was dancing really on the right rhythm even with difficult songs.It went that good that i even was dancing with someone who was only familiar with LA STYLE but we were dancing great and she followed very nice and this is because you can more play with the music,you feel more secure. When people start with salsa there are not many schools who explain you those patterns like in your DVD so i recommend everyone this DVD and i feel sorry that i was not earlier informed about this DVD but its is not to late..i now can really relax dancing and have really fun without being insecure about the patterns" (Rudi, rudivanbeeumen_at_hotmail.com)

It's amazing how a move that seems very tipical for NY/LA Style can be executed in Cuban Style as well.

"Your video featuring advanced moves in L.A./N.Y. salsa is excellent value! I really like how I can watch the figure in slow motion and at the same time listen as the move is clearly explained. When I learn salsa figures I like to write them down. With this video you've even done this! Each figure is subtitled so that I can read it over again after I've watched and listened. I also like the overhead camera which gives me an extra understanding of each move. The Cuban interpretation of each move is also a great idea for people who I like to dance Cuban style (myself included) Now I have no excuse for not learning!"

"Your DVDs (Advanced Figures and Cuban Salsa for 'Non Cubanos')are very well done and easy to follow. I really like the locales in which you shoot them. Those can't be beat.

"DVD is very good ." (omid _ nemati @ yahoo . com])

"I received your instructional Merengue DVD and thought it was fantastic. It had unique patterns shown from every angle and the outdoor background is beautiful" (Rick, RVPatton_at_verizon.net)

"I don’t know how people dance merengue in your city, but where I live, people instead of dancing, are just making complicated nodes with their hands on merengue music. If you want to feel the music, start learning basic but beautiful moves get this DVD. The scenery is gorgeous, the moves are progressive so from basic you progress to advanced. Even if you just copy what they show you, it will be fantastic, but as they say on the DVD, get the inspiration from what you see to create your own style. As a guy, just by succeeding in duplicating his moves will make me more than happy. 5 friends (girls) when they see the woman dancing, feel the same: this is the way they want to dance. How to make it come true? Watch the video, practice, practice and practice.

...two weeks after...

Before this DVD, merengue was just the easy dance to move the body on a salsa evening. Practicing for a week with my new girlfriend, merengue became the expression of sensuality. We love the feelings we are getting from the movements and ideas of the DVD! (Christofe, artsski_at_yahoo.com)

"So my thirst for Salsa DVDs lead me to SalsaIsGood but the DVD that quickly caught my eye was Feelin' Merengue. One does not often see Merengue DVDs. Nor ones shot in such gorgeous locations in Australia - who knew this was a the home of such excellent Merengue instruction. Much to the amazement of this Canadian lad, these folks living out back of beyond had crafted an absolutely brilliant instructional DVD. I am totally in awe of their minimalist but so effective teaching approach. The focus is on your partner and on the music. Put those together and you have true beauty in the dance. My partner and I danced a better Merengue after just one viewing when we went to a party that evening. Generously, the site provides a script to the video so remember to download it. The price and the ability to download the video make this a truly excellent purchase for anyone who wants to improve their Merengue. You will be amazed at how quickly the improvement happens after a little practice.

I think the biggest plus is that the minimalist approach of no dialogue works amazingly well. In fact, I would even say that there was less distraction as one focused on visually processing and not attempting to comprehend dialogue as well. Certainly works for Merengue. Well done on this different approach. All the pluses: - dancers are amazing - locations are incredibly beautiful - love the music - progression of moves is excellent - moves are fun and unique - video editing is quite artistic" (Patrick, ashby at rogers com)

"Cool moves and great soundtrack" (Alan, ahotich_at_hotmail.com)

"I am fascinated by the merengue dance materials you put together. And of course the rest of the materials I bought. The lessons put together are very systematic in the order of importance, and the slow motion effect plus the self-rewind are very helpful! It allows me to concentrate on the dance steps/practice without interruptions on pressing the remote control. The slow motion and the rewind effect are an excellent idea" (William, tradam rogers com)

".... my girlfriend and I really really enjoyed it. In fact it is the best dvd we bought to date. ... this merengue dvd is simply the best for many reasons. Obviously the moves but the ideas behind the dance (gentle, intimate etc...) i really liked that part." (Francois, ricbel23_at_yahoo.ca)

"Excellent, from all points of view! The ideas, the filming of the figures from differnt angles, the slow motion, the background" (Bruno, bruno.carchedi_at_tiscalinet.it)

"I find your dvd very nice, very interesting and well done" (Lilian, lilian.buzer_at_wanadoo.fr)

"I love your DVD, it has unique moves... I like the fact that you enphasize feel the music not only the technicalities" (Luther, lutherseet_at_yahoo.com.sg)

"Excellent video, I am really enjoying it" (Arturo, Arturo-ph_at_recope.go.cr)

"Just wanted to let you know how much we have enjoyed your Feelin' Merengue video" (Sue, sue.mccarthy1_at_comcast.net)

"The dvd-material is just superb and the figures help me a lot, both giving me ideas or just adapt the hole figure" (Kenneth, gjeken_at_online.no)

"It is amazing to see peoples from Australia dancing a merengue so close to the merengue of latino americans that we see in the clubs" (Yvon et Anna, yvon.anna_at_sympatico.ca)

"Never knew merengue could be danced so sensually" (Dino, teo_ps_at_yahoo.com.sg)

"I liked this DVD very much. I am totally satisfied with these DVD" (Alvarez, salvarez at bancoestado.cl)

"This DVD is great" (Clare, xchampx at hotmail_dot_com)

"I have received your dvd on merengue lessons and I like it very much, this is exactly what I have hoped for. This dvd is so much fun. ... Many Thanx for this great loads of fun dvd." (michel, edjemagnesium at yahoo.com)

"The Merengue DVD is very, very good. There is no verbal instructions on DVD. At first I thought this would be a hinderence. The variations are clear and easily followed. There are plenty of variations. Both dancers have good clean and clear Cuban motion. I thought black would mute the visual of motion. It is clear to see Fabio's dance motion and moves in the video. The follow wears a summer dress. Her movements are clean, clear and sexy. Both dancers flow together. ... The dancers, the natural settings. This DVD is infectious. It makes you want to go out and dance" (thomas dot g dot brandl at cummins.com)

"This is the first video I have had to watch several times before I could concentrate on the techniques. This video is done outdoors in some amazing scenery in Western Australia. I was looking at this scenery, the kangaroos, the girls in bikini tops instead of the techniques. This is without doubt the most visually spectacular Salsa video I have seen. I will describe this video as a Demonstrational/ instructional video. There are no verbal explanations of the techniques shown but several demos in all possible views & speeds. The format usually goes like this. A full screen front view, then a full screen side or back view. Then a slow motion view. Then a spilt screen giving two views at the same time. I found it was easy to pick up all the techniques using this method. This video is also the first to use an onscreen counter for all the techniques. As the technique is being shown a beat/ rhythm counter is in the top left of the screen. This video is for intermediate to advanced dancers. The video has some techniques nobody else shows. In fact a couple of techniques I will be using as standard moves for myself as they are that good. This video is also full of the most amazing sayings about dancing & life. Some of the techniques come from Leo Martinez, Wilberto Botey from Habana. I must say these are great dancers & teachers. In fact I also use their techniques in my style. There is some original Cuban music & Clave rhythms used to teach. On a personal note. I have known of Fabio Boschetti for a couple of years. He is a well known Australian Salsa teacher. He has also taught at the World Salsa Congresso. He is known for being very honest & for having a great passion for Salsa" (Neal, salsavideoreviews.org)

"One of the challenges for anyone learning salsa is the sheer diversity of different styles. These may sometimes seem like intimidating barriers, whereas, in a more positivel light, they can provide exciting opportunities for developing repertoire. SalsaIsGood is well attuned to this challenge as is illustrated by this imaginatively-produced DVD. It consists of a selection of Cuban classic moves taken straight from Havana and a number of new moves from SalsaIsGood's own repertoire in the Cuban style. Although by its title primarily intended for 'Non-Cubanos', it is also excellent for anyone who has learnt salsa the Cuban way. It is also suitable for different levels of competence, with some moves relatively easy and others more elaborate. It provides a rich source of ideas and encourages the dancer to not only expand their own repertoire, but also use the moves creatively to develop fresh ideas and ultimately promote the evolution of salsa itself. Each sequence is shown from different angles and repeated in slow motion. A visual counter makes the all-important connection between the movement and the count at any point in a sequence. Names of sequences range from the poetic ('Touching Heaven With A Finger') to the humourous ('Unravelling The Structure Of Mess'). Filmed outdoors in various natural settings, it is one of the most aesthetically beautiful DVDs one could wish to see. The best salsa DVDs draw the viewer in to want to repeatedly practise and learn what are at first unfamiliar and sometimes difficult moves. Cuban Salsa For "Non-Cubanos" passes this test admirably, " (John, rojoho@supanet.com)

"I really like your figures, especially for the originality of the coreography" (Francesco, giarmau_at_virgilio.it)

"Its a great salsa dance dvd, I  see it will keep me busy for the next two year" (Paul, b0000338_at_hotmail.com)

"The DVD is amazing!!!" (Aaron, a_henderson03_at_yahoo.com)

"I received the DVD, it is excellent and I will be buying more from you." (P_at_Mahalingams.in)
