Description:
This represents a complete textbook for dancers. It is highly illustrated, with exercises and tips throughout, all couched in terms of helping the individual dancer to prepare their training. Specific parts on the spine, pelvis, hip, knee, feet, shoulders and arms are each divided into sections on anatomy, load and overload, pitfalls, self analysis and problem prevention, giving the book a consistent structure to its practical advice. Accessible and practical, it is unique in being written specifically for dancers, rather than performers more generally.
