How to Dance Step-By-Step

By Paul Bottomer

If the idea of learning to dance sends you reeling, and dancing with a partner makes you weak at the knees, then this book is aimed at you. Whether your aim is to hold your own at a wedding, to launch yourself into the local club scene or to prepare for more formal ballroom dances, you need to start with the basic techniques. The guide contains over 20 different dances and styles from the standard waltz to the mambo; from the romantic cumbia to the rebellious rock 'n' roll. A comprehensive list of dance clubs and classes is included. Each dance shown includes information on its origin as well as its character and feel, and there are suggestions for suitable music to accompany home practice sessions.

Revue of 'How To Dance' by Paul Bottomer

This is easily the best book of its kind. For those of you wanting to learn the first steps of a great varity of dances, or for those wishing to brush up on their skills, this book should fulfill your requirement. It is of a generous size (30 by 24 cms) and therefore offers clarity. It has good pictures, helpful diagrams, and is well written. With over 250 pages it is also well priced.I understand that this book is no longer available. BUT it has been reprinted, and is now called 'DANCE CLASS'.
