Asi Se Baila El Tango
 This five video series is taken from the television series Asi Se Baila El Tango, a program that appears on Solo Tango- a Tango-only television station in Buenos Aires. Instruction closely follows the style of the late master Antonio Todaro and is very detailed requiring about 15 minutes per figure. The first two videos present basic figuers and the latter three present intermediate and advanced figuers bests suited to more accomplished tango dancers. Production quality is outstanding and the pace of instruction was designed for television broadcast where the view could not use the rewind or slow-motion features of a DVD player.
Tango Estilo del Centro
 As taught by Dolores De Amo and Daniel Lapadula, club-style tango is danced in an upright posture with a close embrace. some separation occurs during turns, and the use of double-time steps is at the leader's discretion. The instructors are first-rate exponents and teachers of the style. The series is designed for graduated learning, but the instruction assumes a prior knowledge of Argentine tango. Daniel and Dolores demonstrate each element of the material several times and explain most of it carefully, but the videos are best suited to visual learners who use the rewind and slow-motion buttons on their DVD players. The dancer who puts this much effort into learning will be well served by the completeness of instruction.
