Christy Lane's Complete Guide to Party Dances DVD Review
This video is an outstanding & must have resource for PE teachers. If you have this plus Christy's Party Dance music you have everything you need to get successfully started with a dance unit. The video walks you through all the most popular party dances out there and shows suggestions for several levels. I've used this both as a resource to teach myself and have also shown clips to students. Christy's enthusiasm and teaching tips are an extra bonus. So if you've been reluctant to jump into dancing with your students this is a great place to start. I've utilized almost every dance on here at some point in my career. There is information that is useful for all grade levels. This is the most requested collection of party dances by DJ’s, physical education instructors, dancers and dance instructors. It includes the most popular dances from the 1950’s to today plus modifications, interactive ideas and ways to use props. You will learn the Electric Slide, the Hustle, YMCA, Chicken Dance, Hand Jive, Partner Macarena, Conga, Limbo, Twist, Jerk, Train Dance, Cotton Eyed Joe, Cabbage Patch, Robot, Stomp, Skate, Butterfly, Barn Dance Mixer, Swing Basics, Bunny Hop, Stroll, Swim, Bus Stop, Hokey Pokey, Poppin’ and more! Because the dances are demonstrated just a few times instead of repeating continuously, it is mostly geared towards instructors. However, anyone can learn these dances especially if you are going to a company dance, wedding or social event. These are all the nostalgic dances (does not include current club dances) that will stay with us forever. This is DVD is an entire hour long. Recommended for ages 5 through adult. The DVD is geared for adults and instructors.

Wish I could give no stars for the rating..... - Atlanta Girl - Atlanta, GA
This video is worth, at most, .99, and NOT .00. Seriously, it's a poorly filmed, poorly edited copy of this woman teaching a class of children and elderly in 1989. She does not even dance to the standard songs that the dances go with! I wish I could return this disc.
A MUST HAVE! - Jill Sethi - Los Angeles
This DVD is a blast and a big hit with kids... as well as adults! I am a K- 5 dance teacher with the Los Angeles Unified Schoold District. Christy Lane gives step by step instructions and makes it easy to learn the moves. Whether we're learning the Chicken Dance, Hand Jive, or The Swing, the kids are loving it!
