Dance Class Ballroom Dance Instruction

To read this book is to attend a dance course along with any number of other people, perhaps without leaving your home. The book has directions in detail about categorizing music, posture, positions, changing of position, how to learn, how to lead, how to follow, styling, using over 58 patterns, substantiated by 26 diagrams in 10 graded lessons in Waltz, Lindy/Swing, & Fox Trot (Two-Step, Magic Step), & 10 graded lessons in Rumba, Tango, & Cha Cha, assisted by counts, cues, & do nots. There are explicit directions for such figures as boxes, turns, pivots, twinkles, what to do when hemmed in by the crowd, & how to assemble routines for counterclockwise progression. The method of teaching applies to the lone student, a couple, or to as many as can see & hear the teacher, facilitated by specified formations. The students who have learned to dance may wish to reread the book with the objective of themselves teaching others to dance & to enjoy dancing. Teaching aids & how to make them are described. The book's table of contents, appendix, glossary, & index give ready reference to desired information.Beck, Betty is the author of 'Dance Class Ballroom Dance Instruction' with ISBN 9780962702006 and ISBN 0962702005.
