Jason Kernohan - Ireland's Song And Dance Man (DVD)

Good dance DVD for beginners

Advantages: Fun, great music, basic and easy to understand
Disadvantages: not so good to "get fit", too basic at some points

I've literally just finished the end of this DVD and thought Id write the review whilst it was still fresh in my mind! Pineapple Studios Everybody Dance does what it says on the tin "Learn To Dance, Get fit, & have fun!" - but only just. The choreographer is really good, and her credibility is backed up by the fact that she has worked with stars like the Sugababes, Rihanna and Mary J Blige. You definitely warm to her, shes not patronising, and you do feel part of the dance class whilst she is teaching you the moves! There are three main routines that she teaches you, each with a chorus and verse - "Maneater" by Nelly Furtado, "SOS" By Rhianna, "Aint No Other Man" by Christina Aguilera and "Beep" by The Pussycat Dolls. The DVD also includes other extras like meeting the dance troupe, make up tips etc as well as a full routine ...

Review of Pineapple Studios - Everybody Dance (DVD)

What a song and dance!

Advantages: lovely family film
Disadvantages: none

I love the old Hollywood musicals and none more so than Singin' in the Rain starring Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor and Debbie Reynolds. This lovely film has got it all - romance, comedy and lots of great singing and dancing along with a couple of downpours for good measure! I recently received the DVD of this film for my birthday and the other day we all sat down as a family to watch this great film. Even my four year old daughter really enjoyed it! Singin' in the Rain (made in 1952) steps back in time to the advent of 'talking films. Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) and Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen) are big silent movie stars. However, when the movie production company starts to make talking pictures there is a big problem because it soon transpires that Lina's voice is terrible. No one knows what to do about this until Don meets the beautiful Cathy ...

Review of Singin' In The Rain (Special Edition) (DVD)

Dirty Dancing DVD

Advantages: great dancing
Disadvantages: None

let her dance with him, but even though though they disagree Baby still sneaks out to learn her dance with Johnny. At they end they do there dance that they have been practising and they do it beautifully. This is a lovely film but it is not for the young ones, I was say 12+ to be honest although on the DVD box it states 15+. The running time is 1hr 45 mins and it was fist released in 1987. It is a great film and would recommend if you havent seen it yet. You will really enjoy it. Another one for Patrick Swayze Fans ...
