Luca & Loraine Baricchi
The Dance Bible (set of 4 DVDs)

This major DVD release is undoubtedly a classic, which you will watch many times over and over again. The Dance Bible is in our opinion the most advanced piece of Ballroom dance teaching ever released on DVD. Luca and Loraine Baricchi (former Professional British Open and World Ballroom Champions) are sharing their thoughts and understanding of all aspects of ballroom dancing: how to make it look great, effortless, with great movement, volume. Some of these things have been said earlier, but the majority is a new, the most comprehensive material analysing ballroom dancing at the top level. These DVDs will not teach you any steps. Instead they take you on a mental journey analysing the principles of balance, movement, rhythm, volume, mechanical forces, music, purpose and even emotional dancing. Every aspect is supported by new exercises invented by Luca and Loraine to help you master it. Luca and Loraine are joined by leading Japanese dancers: Yukiko Miyamoto, Kumiko Asami, Chiaki Seko, Akira Ito, Shintaro Yanagibashi and Masaki Seko who demonstrate the concepts and exercises thought.
