Silver Smooth: Steps, Patterns and Techniques is a comprehensive American Smooth training series presented by World Champions Toni Redpath & Michael Mead.
Designed for dancers progressing beyond the Bronze syllabus, this 4-video collection introduces the techniques, patterns, and movement concepts commonly associated with the Silver level. The material focuses on developing greater freedom of movement while maintaining balance, partnership connection, and floor control.
The series explores how open positions, continuity movement, and advanced transitions are integrated into American Smooth choreography. Each dance is addressed individually, allowing dancers to understand the technical requirements and stylistic characteristics of Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, and Viennese Waltz.
Suitable for both competitive dancers and dedicated social dancers, the program provides structured demonstrations and practical applications that can be incorporated into lessons, practice sessions, and performance routines.
