Product Details


Product Description

From Amazon.com

Learn some of the hottest dance moves you've seen in music videos, award shows, and concerts from the likes of Britney Spears, 'N Sync, and Jordan Knight from this 55-minute video. Darrin Henson moves with limbs of taffy as he teaches the energetic and innovative moves he choreographed for the biggest celebrities. He breaks down the patterns into individual moves, then quickly puts the moves together, and then you perform the pattern with video clips from the stars for whom it was choreographed. Great fun! Unless you're blessed with instant recall, though, you'll need to rewind segments of the tape frequently to learn the moves. And unfortunately, Henson cues his own "right" and "left" instead of the viewer's (the opposite, because you're facing him), so you have to continually reverse his directions in order to mirror his moves. Recommended for limber, experienced dancers--coordination required! --Joan Price

5.0 out of 5 stars It Takes Persistence to Follow - But Proves Rewarding, May 23 2004
By Raymond Sison "Moonlight Dancer" (Fort Worth, TX United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Darrin's Dance Grooves (DVD)
Yes, this DVD may challenge beginning dancers. And it will take persistence and repetition to learn the steps. But like anything challenging the reward comes from seeing if you can do something that you thought you could not.

To give some insight into where I'm coming from I have been dancing a wide variety of styles for a while now and collect dance instruction DVDs and books--as well as have regular private and group instruction. Dance is a passion that I have dedicated myself to.

I really enjoyed this DVD. I have found that DVDs alone (or on-line instruction and books) cannot substitute for learning from others at clubs or from a private instructor. But this DVD showed me what kinds of steps are possible, and gave me some insight into how to choreograph my own moves.

What I have learned so far from "Darrin's Dance Grooves" has been a lot of fun to try on live dance floors--and has added welcome new moves to my repertoire.

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of $, May 3 2004
By A Customer
I don't know who could learn it in a day as one customer had claimed, but it definitely would not be me. Also, self-obsession of Darren sometimes is very scary, not to menetion annoying. if you a beginner, the moves in the movie "Honey" are actually easy to learn and Laura Ann Gibson is a much better instructor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great coreography, April 26 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Darrin's Dance Grooves (DVD)
When I watched this DVD I was suprised how good it was. I didn'nt know how fast it would be! I learned it in a day! I can't wait until I show my friends! It is so much better than a regular dance class.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good instructional video
This instructional video will be appreciated by every teenager and teachers who are teaching them.

2.0 out of 5 stars Only for experienced dancers or the naturally gifted
I think I have figured out why there are such contradictory reviews regarding the speed with which Darrin shows the movements. Darrin has only two speeds. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars This is NOT how you learn to dance
This is a "I"M DARRIN, LOOK AT ME VIDEO". There is little dancing and you can't learn what dance is on the tape. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected but still good.
Darrin does a really good job at breaking down the moves, just as advertised. I suppose my expectations were too high, but it was a good video. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Well...
I agree that the camera angels are not great, and the fact that he goes through ALL of the moves before putting them together is not good. Read more
