A how-to-dance manual that also has enough interesting text and lovely pictures to make worthwhile and fun reading. Comes complete with a DVD - I don't think we're ready for that quite yet but I'm going to offer to lend it to a friend who needs to be able to dance decently at her wedding! Lovely entertaining read for a wet and windy Bank Holiday Monday! ( )

As well as the quirky humour that we haveseen on television, this book demonstrates Anton Du Beke's enthusuiasm for the history of dance and the clarity of his thinking. No book can substitute for a teacher even when it is accompanied by a DVD but this is interesting read for a novice or an enthusiast. ( )
