This book contains the fundamental principles of the Birth of the Dance in a condensed, complete and comprehensive form.

The various subjects have been alphabetically arranged in a practical form for teachers in preparing their examinations.
This Text Book further embodies valuable information which has been obtained through diligent study with the most renowned European Masters and through personal research and experience.
