Hide Tanaka and Adele Preston-Tanaka
For Women Only

This double video is somewhat different from the others as it does not teach any groups. Instead, Hide and Adele concentrate on exercise and subjects that are applicable to any dance choreography you will ever dance. The emphasis is on the lady's role: her stand, posture and poise, flexibility, following and balance. The videos are in English with Japanese subtitles.
