Basic Components of Dance
These apply to any style of dance.
The three fundamental components of dance are position, timing, and styling.
- Position is where you want your body to be.
- Timing is when you want it to be there.
- Styling is how you get it there.

Name That Tune!
Know the song and dance, man!
When you learn a new line or partner dance you really like,
make sure you know the name of the dance and the name of the song (and artist).
Then you will be able to request it the next time you are out at a dance event, night club, bar, or honkytonk.
