I like this tape better than the first, Lindy Hop 1. It simply seemed better put together. And, Frankie does make it fun. We recommend these (1,2,3) now to all beginners - it is, after all, THE Frankie Manning! But, keep in mind, this is about teaching beginners and while this will teach you some very good patterns to know, you'll need to keep dancing and getting tips along the way to be a better Lindy Hopper. It's not how much you sweat, it's how cool you can be...
