Each video shows a dance pattern or a dance combination composed of two or more dance patterns performed in succession. Each dance element is performed by animated characters we call Leader and Follower. The idea behind this "videobook" format is to bring video into the ebook format. Salsa dance is a dynamic physical activity.

There are three previous videobooks in this series. This series of videobooks is akin to a quickstart guide. If you learn the techniques conveyed in these videobooks, you should get from zero to sorta clued in about the rudimentary basics of salsa dance.
