(Ladies, despite the title, 95% of the book's content will help you too.) PUBLISHER'S NOTE: This book does not teach specific dances. It's a foundation book focusing on the basics. It's a book to read before your first dance class or if you're struggling through your first year of classes. What you will learn is the rhythm pattern for 18 common partner dances because knowing the pattern of weight changes for a specific dance before you step into the first class will give you a head start--and help you survive. James Joseph used to hate to dance. He struggled to learn dance so he simplified the process and that's reflected in how he teaches. He took his first beginners' class in 1984. Since 1996 he has trained under Skippy Blair, a Swing Dance Hall of Fame member, and who is considered by many the teacher of teachers. He's now a GSDTA certified dance instructor.
