Had to buy this for a Modern dance class. Probably could have found all this info online, from my teacher, or in a cheaper book. not a bad book just way overpriced. its a tiny little book with information i could have found elsewhere. i think it was a waste of my money.
The books glossary is a little condensed however the index is perfect. I used this for an intro to modern class and had no issues.
This book is very helpful for beginner dancers. There are so many terms and steps to learn, and it helps you keep up.
I use this every semester for my Intro to Modern Dance course.
