This course goes over the many different ways you can slide and glide around the dance floor, including Michael Jacksons famous “moonwalk”. You will be taught exercises, drills and vocabulary moves ranging from complete beginner to intermediate moves. 

Rob (the instructor) teaches from his home town dance studio and includes slow motion, varied angles, close ups and annotations to help improve the learning.  You will need to put the practice in and also stop and rest when you need to, as the moves are quite intensive on certain leg muscles.  The course lasts approx. 1 hour, and will really help those who are trying to understand exactly how the illusion of the slide/glide actually works.

Rob is also available for any questions regarding the video so if there is anything you are stuck on then just ask!

The thing with gliding is that it looks easy, but at first it really isn’t.  Don’t expect results too quickly and don’t be disappointed if you don’t see an improvement as soon as you would like.  Keep practicing, take your time and with discipline and perseverance (like most things in life) you will get there!

Useful additions to add depth to your moves. End demo showed how it can all be fitted together. It would have been nice to have been talked through to transition ideas i.e. how to link it together, but that's dancing. I guess I have to feel it. All in all: A1.
