Editorial Reviews

"Getting Your Kicks! A Beginner's Guide to Choreography is a highly recommended introduction to stage choreography (dance moves for theater), consisting of a DVD and a 28-page workbook that fits snugly inside the DVD case. An excellent resource for self-study or classroom instruction, Getting Your Kicks! is perfect for novice or untrained dancers of all ages and backgrounds. Getting Your Kicks! covers fundamentals including jumps, turns, and kicks; a wide variety of dance steps including grapevine, pony, wizard, cakewalk, waltz step, Charleston, soft shoe, etc.; determining formation and staging; and more. Getting Your Kicks! is a "must-have" for dance instruction collections, and highly recommended for anyone with an interest in choreography, whether as a hobby, for community theater, or as a profession."

Gr 8 Up-This beginner's guide to choreography features an instructor and students performing the movements on an empty stage and is especially geared to young adults. As an aid for choreographing student performances, it helps viewers become familiar with dance terminology and stage directions, as well as simple steps, jumps, turns, kicks, and leaps. There are eight sections: "Things to Consider before Getting Started," "Laying the Foundation," "Jumps, Turns and Kicks," "Advances Steps," "Fun Steps," "Figuring Out Formations and Staging," "Sample Combinations," and "Adding Style." The DVD concludes with six enthusiastic students incorporating all the elements in a dance routine. The narrator empowers young adults to try their hand at choreographing a production by teaching them basic movement skills. The slow-paced, step-by-step demonstrations by the blue jean-clad, easy-going instructor and six diverse teens provide clear instructions, even for novice dancers.-Gay Ann Loesch, Sun Valley Middle School, Indian Trail, NC Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
