Laura, you’ve out done yourself. What a great video! It really starts off with a bang with the demo. Really engaging. Really enjoyable. Including your friends really adds a lot of life. The change of scenery is a breath of fresh air too, a cool breeze, in the trees, or in the knees, ha ha. Also Bright Coffee in San Antonio is the place to be. Dividing the video into chapters really makes it easy for us to focus on the areas where we need to improve. Of course, as always, appreciate your expert demonstration of the moves, that way we learn to ‘do it right’, ha ha (I say that because you say there’s not really ‘a right way’). Anyway, you obviously don’t make these videos willy-nilly: you research it and try to be as faithful to the original as possible. I think this might be your best video to date. Also a hat tip to the Brooks Prumo Orchestra for the fantastic music.

How could I have missed this video when it came out?! With this amazing breakdown, it seems so much managable and doable for me now. Thank you Laura as always!
