Eight dances are covered in this 90-minute video: triple timing swing (jitterbug), three count hustle, four count hustle, cha cha, rumba, salsa, merengue, and slow dancing.
This video teaches "partner dances," not "free style" or hip hop dancing where you basically "shake ya thang." Several figures are shown for each dance.
This dance was born in the nightclubs of New York City during the disco era of the 1970’s.
In May 2004, PPCA wrote to its nightclub, dance and dance party licensees, and trade organisations representing these licensees, informing them of its intention to review the structure of its current Tariff "E" and the rate payable for the use of protected sound recordings in nightclubs, and at dances and dance parties.
For dances and dance parties, the proposed rate is $5.10 per person per event and is based on the number of attendees.
The licence which PPCA grants to nightclub, dance and dance party licensees authorising their use of sound recordings for dance purposes covers the very wide range of sound recordings that meet two criteria.
