Marcus and Karen Hilton MBE - Waltz (39 min)
What do the judges want to see in the Waltz? It is not a fast waltz, not a lot of syncopations or unique choreography. Because the Waltz is a beautiful dance, they want to see the dance that expresses its beauty. What should we do for that? Marcus answers with humour.
Marcus Hilton MBE - Tango (46 min)
Marcus says he times his body in the swing dances. Then where does he time in Tango? Where do Marcus and Karen feel their weight on to show the character of Tango while dancing? Why in the textbooks does the Tango footwork go more in details than other dances? This lecture explains.
Marcus Hilton MBE - Ballroom Dance (48 min)
Line figures are not static, but we breathe. We move and the body is in motion. Taking up Same Foot Lunge and Left Whisk for examples, dancing from the entries of them through to the exits. Marcus explains how Marcus and Karen use their bodies from their heads to toes in details to create and achieve beautiful dancing.
Caterina Arzenton - Viennese Waltz (33 min)
Viennese Waltz is not the same as Waltz and its characteristics is absolutely different. Caterina explains the secrets of how to use the standing and moving legs to dance on time with the fast music and also the correct understanding of CBM in the 'stage' lecture that audience can join and dance.
Augusto Schiavo - Ballroom Dance (36 min)
His lecture refers to what he wants to see in the dancing, whom the competitors dance for, and even the sincere respect for the people who danced before us. It captures the attention of the audience. You will be grateful to find his answers of the questions asked by the audience.
Len Armstrong - Slow Foxtrot (48 min)
When you dance you must create your dancing, not manufacture it. If you dance aggressively with competitive spirit, you can never reach the the dance with high quality. Then, what should we do to achieve that level? Len gives an impressive lesson inviting the audience on the floor.
