If you are a novice and looking to learn in a correct and structured way, these videos (Vol I & II) are very sound and easy to understand. The videos are introductory, so if you already know the basics, perhaps they are not for you. Don’t pay attention to the criticism of those who weren’t smart enough to read the description and look for more information about the videos from the internet or the instructors’ website. The videos are clearly labeled basic. That’s why they are titled “A Taste of….”
I gave it four stars because even though the intent to make the tapes universal by making them bilingual is good, it does tend to slow the lessons a bit. Why not use subtitles for the alternate language?

For those who wish to learn salsa through videos, this is the one for you. True, there are excellent intructional videos in the market; but without a strong basics, all those fancy moves shown in more advanced videos will not work for you. The dance instructors give you enough tips and alert you of common pitfalls so you can start dancing with proper form and style.

Along with Volume 1, I found A Taste of Salsa-Volume II a waste of my time and money. I purchased both of these videos together based on the praises in another persons review. I have learned my lesson! I’m assuming these 2 “instructors” rated the videos themselves. I found them far from impressive. For the price you pay you learn very few moves. They spend more time on long, drawn out explanations than anything else. I would not recommend buying this video. If you must, my copies are for sale 2nd hand!

I got a great beginning to my Salsa experience with this video. After practicing some of the combinations after seeing this video and Volume 1, I started to have fun right away.
If you want to start on the right step and never started before, this video is a “must own”.
