I hate to say this... But I learnt an awful lot from a certain forumites Beginners Blues DVD and I've never done a blues class in my life.
That said I would RATHER see the teacher in the flesh and be taught in a class environment. I only learnt from the DVD as I had a Partner to practice with (Twirly) at the time. Watching them by yourself their use is limited.. perhaps as an aide memoir. An online service would be interesting but wouldn't replace a regular dance class. IMHO
if I had the time and the money.. and the choice I would have went to the recent Blues weekender rather than watching the DVD. DVD is all well and good, but you can't beat a good teacher in person (not unless you use a nice big stick)
And despite all the agro posts here I know that "that certain forumite" is a darned fine teacher !
This has been another boring post from Borewulf
