Edie,

I love the hip hop shines video. You and Edie make dance a lot of fun and you are both very nice.

I am going to be the hottest thang on the dance floor when I get done learning your moves.

I hope to come to Palm Springs in August. Joan

ps I have braces just like Edie! Makes me a better dancer!!  - Joan

Hey Guys,
This is Jaime from down under, I just want to express my gratitude in everything you guys did whilst in Australia. LA should be very honored to have you two as their representatives to the world.

I must say the interest in Millennium style is sky rocketing here in Sydney. I have really put into practice all that I learnt from you guys about millennium style and it has made a huge difference in my Dancing. People her have noticed the change in a major way and they love what I am doing. All our students are so excited about us going to transform all our on1 classes to millennium style.

On2 is very quiet in Sydney, we will start teaching on2 very soon to boost the numbers up of dancers learning on2 as we feel it is important for the development of our Salsa scene here in Sydney. Although there may be a few schools who may not agree, I intend to really push millennium style for the on2 as well. It is a big gamble but the concepts you guys have come up with do make a big difference in our dancing and I have experienced that first hand. I will do my part to spread the style here in Oz.

Well it is good bye for now but I am performing in Zurich in February so I will see you guys there.

Speak to you soon.

Dear Edie, I've been taking Salsa lessons for a year now and am getting better slowly but surely. Following is becoming easier all the time. Also, with your spin video, I'm going to eventually be the best spinner in the school. We dance on two (that's supposed to be the New York City "thing"), but all your advice, as I'm sure you know, still works. The next lesson I'm going to take from you is about styling, so far, I'm dancing pretty much stick style!! Anyway, I have a question for you, if you don't think I'm imposing by asking. In your video, you explain how to punch and get power for your spins. I saw you do multiple "Touch and Go" spins with both your arms over your head and you still got around really fast and straight up and down. How do you do that? If you have it explained in another video, I'll buy it, but those are very hard for me to do. You and your partner are an inspiration. I need to be inspired, I'm 50 years old and I think I could still be good with PRACTICE!! Thanks for letting me write to you.

Sincerely, Jo Guasca (female)

Dear Edie, I want you to know that I am teaching some of the combinations from your Salsa Intermediate 2 dance video. You make it easy for me to break down the moves so that I can demonstrate and teach them to my students. In rural Idaho, people tend to make up their own dance steps which do not resemble the original dance in any shape or form. I am originally from San Diego and now have little access to new dance moves. Thanks to you I have enough new material to teach students for awhile. I will be contacting you in the future for more great Salsa steps and moves. Sincerely, Maxine MacDonald, Swingtimedance in Idaho

Dear Edie ,
I attended nearly all your classes at the recent UK Congress and I was really impressed. My wife and I teach Salsa (www.bristolSalsa.co.uk - if you're interested) and your classes gave us a lot of new ideas for our own dancing and for our students - several of which we've already used!

I must have been impressed because I've just ordered 3 of your DVDs by PayPal! ....

I look forward to seeing the videos and if I bump into you again I might work up the courage to ask you for a dance (Edie)!

Best wishes, Ian.

Dear Edie,
One thing I have noticed from all the videos that I purchased is that your series of videos are the best for these few simple reasons. They are not overlay technical, easy to follow, and most importantly the humor you guys bring to the video is very unique. I like my other Salsa videos but no one does an extra slow motion demonstration but you.

God bless and I pray that you continue to be a spark in the Salsa community. Ian

Dear Edie !! Hallo from Greece! When I read your history at the web site, about your resistless desire for good spin, your bad posture after been seen your self in a video, your exhaustive practicing on being better and better (I used to make 200 trials every day for two years for pirouettes en dehore and en dedant to each leg; this is about 400 trials in a day and 2800 pirouettes a week), baby powder on the sole ,and all these check points and advices that are completely true, I said no!  This not Edie's history , this MY HISTORY!!! - Minas

Edie... Oh my God, your spins & turns video changed my life, seriously!!!!!!  I was having such trouble trying to do my dance instructor's way, which is a good way, but I was already naturally going towards what you very carefully explained in your video anyways, & I realized that yes, the punching thing was such a natural thing to do.  Practicing both directions equally, well, I don't have to tell YOU these things.  I could go on & on.  The paper, I have yet gotten to that, but the other stuff prior to that is so much fun, this video is a smorgasbord  of wonderful, wonderful top notch, nailed it right on the head advice!!!!!!!!!!  Next, I'm gonna order the styling video, is that where you talk about the egg, combing the hair, tracing your fingers over your eyes, head rolls, etc.?  Sorry, I go on & on.  Can't seem to stop (but I will)  Oh wait, ONE MORE THING!!!!!!   How are you doing?  I sincerely hope you are feeling better & are taking good care of yourself.

I recieved the "Intermediate Salsa" video in less than a week. Thanks for the prompt delivery. The moves are amazing and your explanations are concise.  Peace!!!! Ralph

....your instructional videos are very helpful, informative and fun. You make it seem like you are joking and talking directly to us. I like that the videos are more relaxed than the other more strict and contrite ones!!! Thank you!!!
Debra

Hi Edie, My name is George Hutchings From Toronto, ON Canada, and I am sending you this email just to let you know that I think your videos are incredible as well as the way you dance.  ........when it comes to ladies styling you are without a shadow of a doubt the BEST!!!
- George

Hi Edie, .....p.s. -- you're videos have been a great resource for me! mark.

Hi Edie,
We received our DVD's. They are awesome! We've only watched about a half hour of the men's styling and a half hour of the women's styling and we LOVE them! You guys are awesome dancers and SUPER teachers!

Thank you so much! Maybe some day we can come to your dance camp. Not this New Year's though. Maybe in the summer!
Familia Plácito

I just got the cool moves 2 and the intermediate video - thanks for the quick response. I was blown away by the intermediate video - it's very clear, lots of info, and doesn't repeat the same things unnecessarily. 
Eric

I've received your videos the other day. They are just GREAT!!!!! I've already used several moves in the club. My favorite is the "copa", and the "copa extension". I hope to order the advanced videos soon ( or better wait till I'm comfortable with all the patterns). Thanks again.
Tanim

Everything is perfect! I really enjoy the video. I am very impressed by Edie's dancing skills. It's not often you see such a good blend of feeling and technical skill.

It was a good thing of you that you started of with some easy but cool moves and then continued with more and more advanced moves. In my hometown everybody dance Cuban-style (I take lessons in a neighboring town) and many have never tried dancing nor seen any other style. Therefore I often stick with a few very basic combinations that is easy for the girls to follow and then It is good to have some cool "tricks" to put in between the combinations. I met a wonderful girl last weekend and we decided to go out together to a Salsa-club next Saturday. Your video could not have arrived with better timing!

Tanks for everything!! Best wishes Christian

Just a quick note- based on the excellent quality of your video, I then purchased your partner's video on Salsa shines converted from hip hop moves. God, it's great! It will keep me happy for quite some time. I like how it's formatted in that he starts out with simple shines and progressively gets more and more challenging. It's got TONS & TONS of moves. I love it! Thanks a lot Edie!  Debra

I have been practicing your video tapes for the past month and I have to say I really enjoy the style of dance you and your partner portray. I use to think I was the only person that incorporated Hip Hop into my Salsa but you guys really have taken it to another limit.  Ian

Dear Edie,
I want to thank you so much for your powerful videos. I don't think to many of the females in Holland will be able to spin so gracefully. Thanks so much for the tapes again.

Sincerely, Ben Sims

Dear Edie,

Thank you so much for your rush delivery of your wonderful videos. I was going to go out dancing but stayed home totally transfixed by the beginners tape and learned more by watching this one tape than a dozen others. (Of course, now I have to practice to become an outstanding salsero, verdad?).

Then, I opened and watched Eric Freeman's Cool Moves and found a lot to study. Of course, the teaching is not nearly as explicit and it will require much more patience and practice to master his cool moves.

I can tell by your instruction that you know a lot more than just Salsa and are a well trained dancer and teacher. This is what I am striving for -- albeit half a century late (LOL). Somehow I know we'll meet sooner or later. Thanks and love, Frank
