Dear Jami, thank you, thank you, thank you!
What a beautiful and very useful work both of you have done!!!
The DVDs midday arrived yesterday and our afternoon training session was dedicated to watching the Bronze, Silver & Gold Syllabus. THE BEST we have seen.
We are overjoyed; this is the modern Encyclopedia of
Latin Dance (like the classic videos of Razz? m 'Tazz).
You had a lot of new material; but the most important thing is that
You both explained, in detail, the Modern on2.
We liked the explanations of the movement in the Cross Body
Lead, because you add something cool between the regular CBL done
by most of dancers (even on 2) and the "dile que no" of Rueda. It?s a
very nice movement.
We also enjoyed the new version of the Raul Wrap. Actually the entire
series of Copa is great. The Overturned Turn is fantastic. Personally,
I am going to learn a lot from Jose's movements. Jose DeCamps has a lot to teach male dancers with the most elegant style I have seen.
I cannot forget to mention the music for this series. We have to get it for our training.
THANKS VERY MUCH TO BOTH OF YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL WORK
AND YOUR LOVE FOR TEACHING.

Hi Jami,
I happened to buy a set of your salsa instructional video tapes from DanceVision 7 years ago and fell in love with you and Jose.
I was the new mother trapped at home with my young daughter and I just started to learn salsa so I was looking for every instructional DVD or video tape that I could find then. So maybe I have the most complete collection of all the salsa DVDs on the market, but I wasn't happy with what I had got since a lot of them taught only on "1" until I found your new collections on both "1" and "2" so I bought them all from DanceVision! I completely trust you and Jose for your solid training in dancing and your flair in salsa presentation.
- Fabio, Salsa Is Good
In salsa, as in tango, swing, rock?n?roll, etc, people tend to look at ballroom dancers with a bit of suspicion: they admire their technique but they often find it hard to share the dance interpretation. If you are one of those dancers you may look at this series from Jami and Jose with similar suspicion and by doing so, you may miss out on a little treasure, because I believe these DVDs are real value. Jami is a great dancer and a great teacher, with both ballroom background and very extensive salsa experience, she has mingled for years with all salsa masters, from all schools, and brings to us her salsa knowledge strengthened rather than diluted but her ballroom technique.
What I find most valuable for these DVDs is the neutral and objective way in which Jami analyses the different salsa styles in fashion today (LA, NY and old school mambo) and the way she presents and combines the elements of the different styles and the options you have: rather than being presented a mix of everything with no particular structure and knowledge, you will know what you do, why you do it and where it comes from.
The other part of the treasure, a real treasure, is Jose and Jami?s choice of turn patterns, taken, with due professional acknowledgements, from many of the salsa stars we all admire: you will be taught turn patterns from Edie Torres, Thomas from Santorico, SuperMario, Jai, Mario B, Edie and Al, just to name a few.. and they surely chose among the best turn patterns from each. Add to this that the teaching is spot on, both on2 and on1, with clear details on both leading and following, armwork and footwork, with no economy of material and time length, and you are left to ask what more you would possibly want from a DVD.
