If you are a teacher it also has detailed teaching advice and lesson plans.A companion set of nearly 50 video lessons on YouTube correspond to the lesson-style chapters of this book. The videos show you what the moves look like meaning this book can focus on giving detailed learning advice.In addition there are chapters covering effective learning techniques, teaching skills, lead-follow techniques and other ways to accelarate and optimise how you learn or teach dance.The author, Dr Duncan James, has taught dance on average twice a week for over two decades. From his third class he began recording his experiences to compile extensive written notes about the questions students asked him, the different ways people learn and which methods were the most effective. These notes are the basis of this book with an additional two years spent working with volunteers to do final testing to make this book and the companion videos effective for independent learning.Duncan trained as a scientist and whilst learning from other teachers he also experimented with new ideas to find the best ways to teach.
