Pages : 513
Book Description
Many of us are drawn to dance because we love the act of dancing. Teaching was something that came later. It is necessary to teach dance if we want to continue dancing and make a living doing it. Whether you are facing a class of students for the first time or are an experienced teacher, whether you teach children or adults, whether in a recreational setting or college, you will find this book an essential source of information. Supported by illustrations, numerous examples, sample lesson plans, activity suggestions, and discussion questions, Teaching Dance: The Spectrum of Styles is designed for use as a course textbook for student teachers and as a resource for the professional teacher. It includes practical tips and application suggestions with additional material downloadable from the website. Supported by illustrations, numerous examples, sample lesson plans, activity suggestions and discussion questions, Teaching Dance: The Spectrum of Styles is designed for use as a course textbook for student teachers and as a resource for the professional teacher. It includes practical tips and application suggestions with additional material downloadable from the website. This groundbreaking work brings the Spectrum of Teaching Styles originally developed by Muska Mosston and Sara Ashworth to the art and science of dance. The Spectrum will help dance teachers address many issues, including the following: For the beginning teacher, “Did I meet my objectives? How can I judge how well I did?” For the advanced teacher, “How can I encourage initiative and help students become more responsible and self-motivated?” “How can I continue to grow and improve as a teacher?” For the college or university teacher, “How do I help my colleagues in other disciplines and my administration understand dance as an academic discipline?” “How can I engage students cognitively and encourage critical thinking?” For teachers of children, “How can I focus on the creative possibilities of movement for each child and harness their love of discovery?” For teachers in private studios, “The students in my class are at several different levels! How can I coax the beginners and still challenge the more advanced students?” “How can I teach so that I reach every student, keep students coming back for more classes, and thus keep enrollment (and my business) up?” When teaching large classes, “How can I provide individualized feedback for every student in the class and still keep the class moving?”

Pages : 241
Book Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown has created a sensation with her contemporary novels. In Heaven’s Price she offers a sexy, tender, and funny story about a woman who thinks she knows her destiny, until she learns that her fate—and her heart—have something else in store. Blair Simpson embraces a life most people merely dream about. Devoting her nights—as well as her days—to dancing in the chorus line of Broadway musicals and in occasional TV commercials, she has never considered another career. But when an injury sends her to a small town for six long months of recuperation, she finds herself surrounded by couples who are raising families and building dreams together. And there she meets a man who forces her to come to terms with a part of herself she has long denied. From Blair’s first encounter with her new landlord, Sean Garrett, the powerful sexual attraction between them catches her off guard. For the first time she’s unable to lose herself in dancing, as Sean’s passion and tenderness urge her to open her life to him. More than anything, Sean wants to build a future with fiery, raven-haired Blair. But Blair’s own passion for dance has ruled her for so long, she may not be able to break its hold—even if it costs her the love she had thought she’d never find. “Ms. Brown’s larger-than-life heroes and heroines make you believe all the warm, wonderful, wild things in life.”—Rendezvous

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
These are contemporary short stories that take you from the early 1990s to the present day. The title of one of the stories became the title of the book itself. Dance with Me invites you to follow the characters’ stories in the rhythm of the Waltz, Tango, and boogie-woogie. With an adventurous summer love story of a medical student and a linguist girl from Kyiv, you move to a Christmas story of students trying to solve a mystical puzzle. Years later, the characters have a happy family. One night the woman has a dream about a beautiful lake in Canada, will it come true? Soon, the narrative gets dramatic, blunt, and slightly political at times, with the truth revealed in private correspondence. With unexpected twists, you run a gamut of emotions from thrill and sadness to hope and joy. Tracing the same characters at different stages of their lives makes the collection unique in its storytelling. You see new people appear and impact the protagonist's life. Some of them stay, others go, and so is life. Written in English, the book tells ten extraordinary stories from the ordinary life of Ukrainians before russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022. Several hyperlinks are included for factuality and readers' interest.
