Dear Ponqqonp:Could you kindly do us a big favor,please? If your beautiful videos by the World Champions Marcus and Karen Hilton were meant to be instructional,and yet the names of each figure are missing,the result is that even the experienced dancers have to guess what each figure is meant for? Now,that is really not fair for the beginners!You discouraged them before they could develop the interest learning the beautiful dance!Could you take "basic" off your titles?Please?---dancewu(dot)net

About one year ago, there was a young man from England writing to me complaining the title of these beautiful Ballroom videos "basic" are the wrong words for the titles. Let me put it this way, is there any one ever complained about a SHOWDANCE by the Champions with the misleading title? No! Therefore, either these instructional tapes giving more information such as calling out the names of each figure or simply do not call it "basic"--and expect people learning from them !---dancewu(dot)net

George, thanks for the info. Original from ponqqonp was: hover corte; outside spin; back whisk; chasse. That should be: syncopated natural pivot; back whisk; chasse ?

dancetjoen: Checking it over and over again, That should be: "syncopated natural pivot:1&23, chasse:12&3"---dancewu(dot)net

dancetjoen: I understand Tornsberg is from your area;even Slavik is from Ukraine;even you have been concentrating on mostly International Standard;but I don't think it would hurt to learn from Slavik and Shirley Ballas on the International Latin.They are as great as Marcus and Karen Hilton on the Standard!---dancewu(dot)net

George, I have video-instructions in my playlists, not in favourites. W.r.t. the website: wm-bonn means Weltmeisterschaft in Bonn, that is their site. Streaming Video: I read on various sites that it will be broadcasted by WDR on saturday 23.00 CET

d: Please explain the second part of your message. I did not get the website with "Website is wm-bonndotde"? And what did you mean by "streaming video...."?---dancewu(dot)net
