BOB RIZZO

Bob Rizzo teaches dance for the undergraduate program at New York University and at STEPS on Broadway.  He has choreographed for the New York Stage, National Tours, Stock, Dinner Theater, Commercials, Industrials and Television.  In addition, he teaches professional dance classes throughout the United States and Europe.

So who is Bob Rizzo and what did he want?  Quite frankly, to create the best instructional dance videos around.  Rizzo traveled around the city and the country.  He traveled to Western Europe and as far East as Japan.  And everywhere Bob went, the world longed to learn the latest styles and steps coming out of New York.  So in 1989, Rizzo accepted the challenge, and founded Riz-Biz Productions.  He has succeeded in becoming one of the leading producers in instructional dance videos in the country.

Bob’s videos are a favorite in dance studios and schools across the nation.  An estimated 25,000 teachers now use Bob’s videos in their classrooms and feature his original choreography in their workshops and recitals.  So, what makes Riz-Biz videos so great?  Whether Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Lyrical, Hip Hop or Swing, Rizzo’s videos are dynamic and entertaining from the first minute to the last.  With instruction shown from both front and rear view, the videos are fun, clear, and easy to follow.  On each tape, simple warm-ups give way to more challenging routines, allowing all levels of dancers to move across the floor.
