Introduction to Modern Dance Techniques 59236th Edition

Think of this as a textbook clarifying all those names and techniques that dance teachers may have referenced while you were trying to concentrate on alignment or form (or just not falling over) during dance class through the years.I minored in dance in college but focused mainly on ballet. This book has helped to round out my modern education.If you're looking for a broad overview of the last century in concert dance, this may be a great resource for you as well. Legg covers the evolution of modern dance from Denishawn and Isadora Duncan to Paul Taylor and "Postmodernism." Familiarity of dance in general will probably be a big help!

Perfect ! Loved the biographical sections paired with the technique overviews.

Perfect!

A good useful book for a Dance History class. Not for an actual technique class unless you haveknowledge of the techniques explained in the book.

This is a well written modern dance history resource. It takes you through the history as well as the techniques of modern dance. It is a thorough resource for a modern technique class or a modern dance history course.

This text has a great blend of the practical, the technical and the theoretical. Rarely do you see these aspects so well blended.
