Hey there Neelam S. - I'm so sorry you're having trouble. I tried saving random videos to my playlist/Favorites on my App and it seems to be working ok. Perhaps try turing the phone back off and on to refresh the phone, or delete and re-download the App? We've gotten a few notifications of it updating, so perhaps it just needs to be refreshed, in a way. If that doesn't work, there is a 'report a problem' option on your app and the app company might have some other insights.

For videos you've already watched/seen, there is a spot at the bottom of the screen with 3 horizontal lines that takes you to another screen, if you click Content > Watch History, it should give you all the videos you've already watched in that list. Is that what you're looking for? Let me know if I can help with anything else!

The Truth about Lead & Follow

Shannon H. you don't need to put your arms as high as shown. Arm styling, to me, is a personal choice because what looks good on some people, doesn't look good on others, and visa versa. For Rumba and Cha Cha (espcially in COB's) I would make sure there is energy in your arm and that it follows the line of your body! Hoping to do a video on it soon! :-)

Siew that's a great question...if you get through all of our Primary and Secondary syllabus, we typically say you can start on the harder/Intermediate moves because you'll have a solid foundation! So if you're comfortable with all of those patterns, I think you can safely call yourself an Intermediate level dancer!

Sandra F. transitioning from the boto fogos to the voltas, the lead has to be decisive and clear, hopefully! :-) The arm will stay down for the voltas, and the connection will move down the line. In addition to that the body will face your partner more in the voltas vs being behind your partner in the boto fogos!

Sandra F. - those are tricky but fun moves!

For leading the boto fogos, the arm will go up and then down between each side to side action. In addition to that we shorten the connection to bring the follower back to the opposite side, so it should feel pretty different for the follower. For the Voltas, not only does the arm stay down but your body position changes to face your partner more, and your body flight moves down the line. 

Transitioning from the boto fogos to the voltas, the lead has to be decisive and clear! :-) The arm will stay down for the voltas, as mentioned and the connection will move down the line. Hope that helps!!

Shannon H. tight turns are hard for everyone! Posture, balance and understanding footwork is super important - keeping your footwork underneath you definitely helps. Brian and Megan talk about double turns in this video - see if it helps!
