Kate & Bobby revolutionized Balboa learning when they put out DVDs specifically aimed for followers. They were also very pleased at how much Leaders seemed to get out of the DVDs. This streaming version of their DVD approaches the fundamentals of Balboa and Bal-Swing from the viewpoint of a follower — the one who doesn’t know which move is coming next, and must live and react in the moment.

This (streaming) DVD is geared toward getting a great look and style in Balboa and Bal-Swing. But it’s much more than just a collection of followers’ variations — it’s a DVD about showing followers how to build and invent their own styles and empower their own voices.
