A great way of breaking down the basics

A good tool for dancers who are asked to teach beginners. Sometimes advanced dancers struggle with having to explain something simple, we don't think about it- we just do it. This book clearly breaks basic steps down so you can explain them. It gives wonderful analogies that you can use and simple combinations to teach.
