Well organized and appropriately paced, dance instructor Cal Pozo's Salsa Merengue includes instructions and demonstrations for this classic Cuban dance. Using his standard teaching method, Pozo starts with an explanation and history of the dance and includes animated footprints stepping out the moves, the perspectives (front and back) of each partner, and finally, a full-out demonstration. He begins with the fundamentals of the "Cuban motion," as he calls it, which is "all in the hip." Mastering the merengue requires more than just memorizing the steps. The dance springs from this essential hip movement, and if you don't get a feel for it, you won't get a feel for the dance. Therefore, Pozo spends a good part of the tape slowly and clearly explaining posture and weight emphasis on the foot, to ensure that you'll be able dance the merengue without looking like a robot. One annoyance is the beginning of the video, an excessive eight minutes of people dancing the steps you are waiting to learn. Fast forward through once you've seen it the first time, and you are on your way to merengue. --Beth Massa

The salsa steps are out of touch with the real world. You may learn something but it will be while crushing your partner's foot like I did when coming out of the side mambo to the forward back salsa step. Nobody does this. Cal should visit some contemporary dance socials. Princeton, NJ

"Cal Pozo's Learn to Dance in Minutes - Salsa & Merengue Learn to Dance in Minutes" - It was nothing like what I was expecting. I knew it wasn't going to be great, but I was pretty sure by the editor's description & front cover picture that this DVD would be good. NO! It was terrible! I'm a 27 year old woman. I've been dancing in clubs to all kinds of music. I just wanted to get better dancing with a partner more hmm.. classy - I don't know if that's the right word. I dance close, very ... Read More

this was the 2nd salsa "how to" dvd I purchased. The first one "the quick & dirty guide to salsa" was such a gem, I assumed I would have excellent luck once again with this dvd. The old "follow the footprints" is soooo dated. if you are serious about learning to salsa - this is NOT the one for you. this is the basic of all basics. If there was a rating option of zero,this video would win hands down. I threw it away - since I would feel guilty re-selling it to some poor salsa hyped sucker on amazon. ... Read More

To say that I was disappointed with this DVD would be an understatement. I purchased it because of "neallatino's" review...there are very few actual techniques covered on this DVD, and there is virtually NO advice about HOW the man should lead the woman. The basic steps are SO basic that the instruction is almost useless to all but folks who cannot dance at all. The animated footprints are not done in a way that makes sense...they are confusing and weird. I could have learned everything shown in the DVD ... Read More

Never buy any DVD by Cal Pozo. I've accidentally bought two, since Cal isn't on the cover and I hadn't noticed that he would be the one doing the instruction. By the way, the cover of the DVD looks like it's a lot more lively than it actually is.
This is extremely stiff, and you will not be impressing anyone with your moves. Honestly, this looked horrible and my entire family was laughing hysterically for the first ten minutes because we could not believe that anything could be so boring, stilted, ... Read More
