SIMPLY TAP: Learn how to Tap Dance !

Buy This Item SIMPLY TAP: Learn how to Tap Dance ! by Riz-Biz Productions  Available from Amazon  $26.99  on 11-27-2008     I am an absolute beginner to tapping, and found the dvd not suitable at all. <br /> <br />Germaine Salzburg launches into a rapid progression of steps and after 5 minutes, says, OK now lets do them quicker. You are not given the opportunity to practice. Her approach feels condescending and shallow, (at one stage she makes a mistake in her instructions for a step, but didnt even bother to reshoot the piece.) <br /> <br />I felt totally overwhelmed when trying to follow and gave up. <br /> <br />It feels like she tries to hurry through the basics at top speed without showing you properly how to do the basics. <br /> <br />I felt totally out of my depth and exactly how I felt when attending a public tap class where I was the only beginner. <br /> <br />Thankfully I bought "I hate to exercise, I love to Tap." If you are an absolute beginner and are rythm challenged then try that instead. Once you have worked through that DVD you can then move onto this one. <br /> <br /> Reader Reviews Simply Tap is a great introduction to tap dancing. Germaine Salsberg is a great teacher. She starts with the basics and works up to a time step. She explains everything clearly and starts out slowly and works up to a faster tempo. She has a great personality and makes tap dancing fun. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn the basics.
