Jazz Dancing: How to Teach Yourself - The Robert Audy Method

by Robert Audy

Jazz dancing is not only fun and good exercise. It also provides the basis for most of today's popular disco moves. Bob Audy has taught jazz dancing to tens of thousands of ordinary Americans, as well as scores of Hollywood's and Broadway's biggest stars. Now, in this book, he teaches you to dance at home. He has devised easy-to-follow lessons that you can adapt to your own skills, abilities and free time. And each step on the way, detailed photographs of Bob and dancer Sonja Stuart show exactly what you should be doing when - from the simplest warm-ups and bar exercises to jazz walks and a complete routine for Ease On Down the Road from The Wiz. Whether you want to study jazz dance for exercise - a special section on jazz dance as body conditioning, with specific exercises for toning and shaping the body is included - or want to learn to dance like a Broadway pro or a disco star Jazz Dancing will show you how, and provide you with countless hours of fun.
