It is interesting to compare the modes of operation of these two great dancers, Ira Weisburd and Nancy Lee (Senipadu).

Ira has that rare easy grace of a true master. His enormous influence is by his winsome personality, magnetic presence, prodigious energy, and popular choreographies.

He pops up everywhere, travels the Globe to bring people together, to dance, to have fun, to get along harmoniously, regardless of age, nationality, or creed.

He loves to be with people, and hopes to help make the world a better place.

Nancy however thinks the loveliest place on Earth is her home and garden. Though gregarious, she tends to eschew big glitzy parties, and travels only when she's on holiday.

Her immense influence is due to her super mastery and understanding of dancing, especially Latin dances. On top of this she is also highly intelligent, with a gorgeous look that can go from pretty to stunning, has a great sense of style as well as a keen sense of humor. She is very comfortable in front of camera, and exceedingly photogenic.

Legions of admiring and adoring viewers the world over come under her spell through her amazing channel Senipadu through which they see, many for the first time, the true artistry of line dancing.

We of course rejoice in them. Thank you, Ira, thank you, Nan, thank you dear darlings.

I was looking for something new Beginners / Improvers classes and stumbled on this little 64/2 + 1 easy restart by (Ira - Caballero fame) and thought I would give it teach, and the class loved it, as did I. After a couple of months of teaching a lot harder dancers. It was a pleasant change in pace not only for me but for my dancers. The Rhumba feel music fits the dance perfectly, and with the constant flowing step, gave it that feel good factor for the class. Looking back at some the previous "Ira" dances he tends make his dances flow, making them a pleasure to dance, as with this dance. Certainly not one to be missed, for all your classes whatever level! One to be enjoyed, Thanks Ira hope it does as well as Caballero!!
I give it 5 STARS !!!!" Mike Parkinson

My improvers loved the unhurried, flowing sequences of steps in this dance which has been written to a lovely mid- tempo track. The repeated use of rocking chairs makes the dance seem a lot shorter than it is. Highly recommended. 5 STARS !!!!!

Our group in Boone, North Carolina really enjoyed this dance! It is a really well crafted dance, and should be really popular.
Going to Canada, and hoping to share it there.
Best,

Bachata Conmigo is a thrilling experience for us Seniors at the West Flamingo Active Adult Center here in Las Vegas. We absolutely love Ira's choreography. The music is fantastic also. This dance is a favorite of ours.
