American Style Rhythm – Rumba Gold Variations

The documented Rumba combinations give substantial attention to shapes and partnered transitions. Back bends, a leg line, a neck drop and an explosion appear alongside spot checks, telemark movement and continuous spins. Chris Morris links these actions into ten Gold variations rather than listing a collection of unrelated basics.

Examples include Side By Side Checks to Figure Four Leg Line and Neck Drop, and Quick Sit Break to Continuous Spins and Around the World. The named material helps experienced dancers and teachers judge whether the programme matches their interest in American Rhythm Rumba variations. Produced in 1993, the recording runs approximately 80 minutes.
