Ballroom Dance Rhythms

The purpose of this book is to attempt to get agreement from ballroom dance teachers in college and universities on content for a beginning class and standardise names for variations. The core curriculum agreed upon by CBDA is identified by an asterisk preceding the name of the variation in the contents page. Additional steps for each dance are included following the core. Suggested musical selections are listed at the end of each dance. Classics that have been popular through the years were chosen over current 'pop' songs.

A photographic exploration of the world of competitive ballroom dancing, providing information about different types of dances, and the costumes, emotions, failures, and achievements associated with dancing, and discussing the possibility of making ballroom dancing an Olympic event.

Cal Pozo presents an easy-to-follow, fun to watch book and DVD combination that gives the reader multiple angles and methods from which to learn. Weddings and parties will have you moving and grooving, turning and twirling, and hopping and bobbing with the best.
