This is a free web lesson followed by a dance practice teaching musicality for beginners. Having some musicality makes your dancing much more stylish and fun in the clubs. Transitioning amongst dance moves is covered extensively in my Level 1 DVD.
If you’re a guy (or know a guy) who can’t dance, has no rhythm, think you’re the worst dancer in the world, stands all night by the bar at the clubs, wants more moves, or just want to have more fun in the nightclubs, then the step-by-step lessons covered in my DVD series will help you out! I’ve taught hundreds of guys how to dance in the nightclubs, and everything I teach is practical and based on my experience.
The lessons are simple with practices and focus more on getting the moves looking right than being fancy. The Club Dance Style suits all the major club music styles including hip hop, urban, Top 40, dance, house, electro, funk, Latin, and rock/country.
