Sociable Partner Dance

When I am in one place for long enough, I like to run sociable dance classes and events. This is different to the “show dancing” that can be found on the television and at theatre shows. Instead I am obsessed with the traditional “social dancing” versions of waltz, foxtrot, rumba and so on that have been quietly part of the social scene for hundreds of years in England (if you include earlier versions of social dancing that were precursors of the particular styles that appeared in the 20th century).

I have published a book on this topic called How to Partner Dance Socially. It comes with 44 instructional videos and is available from: Payhip (pdf, epub, mobi). Amazon US, UK, etc (Kindle, paperback). Also Nook, Kobo, Google, Apple.
