Intermediate Variations in Latin-American Dancing is an instructional video featuring Donnie Burns and Gaynor Fairweather, presenting intermediate-level variations for the five International Latin-American dances. Designed for dancers who have mastered the basic syllabus, the program introduces practical variations and demonstrates how they can be applied to improve movement quality, musicality, partnering, and competitive performance.
Running approximately 65 minutes, the course covers Samba, Cha-Cha-Cha, Rumba, Paso Doble, and Jive through demonstration and technical instruction by Donnie Burns, with Gaynor Fairweather illustrating each variation in partnership. The program also includes performance demonstrations in costume, showing how the techniques and variations can be integrated into complete competitive routines.
Originally released as part of the Dance World Video Series, the program was produced by Robert Golding, recorded by TV House Productions in Guildford, England, and distributed by Sydney Thompson Video. It serves as a useful training resource for intermediate dancers, teachers, and competitive couples looking to expand their Latin-American repertoire beyond the basic syllabus.
