Movie Reviews of Dancetime DVD! 500 Years of Social Dance, Vol. 2

Movie Review: danceinstructor
Summary: 4 Stars

For educational purposes, especially in public schools, this is a great product to introduce students to the different styles and era of dances. The costuming, music, and dance steps are not only entertaining but fairly accurate to the periods. I have used it in public schools as a quest artist for the arts and humanities classes on a high school level and they found it informational as well as allowed them a chuckle or two.
