Dancing Between the Ears focuses on a powerful, but often under-utilized tool of dance instruction: imagery. The body learns movement best through visual imagery: pictures in the mind. This book presents chapters full of images such as: "To keep the hips squarely to the front, imagine your hips as headlights on a car, and keep them focused on the road."' and "Plie as though you are going up and down in a toaster." Dancing Between the Ears is an invaluable handbook for dance teachers, dance students and professional dancers. It is a practical companion to the usual scholarly textbooks on dance technique, with tips and images organized in a user-friendly format with chapter headings such as: Posture and Alignment; Traveling Steps; and Images Using Props. Dancing Between the Ears is an at-your-fingertips resource, bull of ideas dancers and teachers can actually use on a daily basis.
