My wife & I just completed beginning ballroom dancing, and are ready to start intermediate. I've looked at several books on dancing, and have concluded that no two of them teach the same steps the same way. I found a copy of this at our local library. There are lots of pictures, and plenty of things to keep beginners occupied for quite some time. Many of the dances have the man leading with the right foot. Also, many of the dances proceed in a zig-zag in the line of dance, with the man proceeding backward at times. Wow! I have picked up several new moves from this book, which supplement what we have learned in our lessons. This book is British, which may account for the difference in style. Still, it is one of the best I have seen. If you want to learn something new, from a source that is clear and concise, this is a great value. It also includes etiquette tips, and the pictures are more than worth the price.
