Beginning Ballroom

Beginning Ballroom: Why's Do's Don'ts and Shoes is categorized under Performing Arts / Dance / Reference and is a five-part book that deals with matters concerning current ballroom dance students of all levels. Part I of Beginning Ballroom deals with ballroom etiquette Part II explores the feel of the ballroom dances and the differences among them Part III delves into how to get the most out of one's ballroom dance lessons Part IV is an easy to reference appendicized info section and Part V is a frequently asked questions section. Beginning Ballroom also includes multiple review sections and an answer section which may be employed either by eager and enterprising dance students as self-checks or by ballroom dance instructors as early homework assignments. Beginning Ballroom does not endorse any one particular dance school dance studio or dance method and does not attempt to teach a single step (though a generic Basic Step Guide is included); rather Beginning Ballroom focuses on the ballroom culture the history of the ballroom dances how ballroom dance competitions work practical advice for wedding couples and the differences between the major ballroom dance styles - thereby leaving the teaching of the ballroom dance steps to the individual ballroom dance instructors. Beginning Ballroom: Why's Do's Don'ts and Shoes is clearly meant to serve as an accompaniment to ballroom dance lessons and not as a replacement for them so ballroom dance students and dance teachers alike may have a safe non-competitive ballroom book to reference for off-the-lesson ballroom dance information.
