Book Description
The 1890s book on round dances by M.B. Gilbert, a well-known American dancing master, containing instructions for numerous variations on waltzes, polkas, galops, redowas, mazurkas, schottisches, and other dances. Somewhat unusually for the era, it does not include any notes on dances other than round dances, like quadrilles, or on etiquette. This edition is a modern reformatting of the early digitized version made by the Library of Congress for the American Ballroom Companion collection, itself now considerably antiquated. Formatting has been reworked to be both practically useful and considerably closer to the original text, and errors in the LoC digitization have been corrected when found, while errors in the original text have been preserved.

Book Description
This overview of folk dancing in the United States showcases an important historical movement and explains how folk dance communities evolved to fulfill the needs of specific groups of people over time. While the general term "folk dance" encompasses a surprising variety of specific dances, there are three major recreational communities or forms: international folk dance, modern western square dance, and contra dance. Throughout the last century, millions of people have enjoyed folk dancing as an educational and recreational activity, regardless of the particular style. Folk Dancing explains the reasons for the folk dance movement that exploded in Europe and North America in the late 19th century. It describes the clubs, camps, festivals, and communities that sprang up, and examines the culture of the movement—the music, key individuals and events, types of clothing, and influences of technologies and popular culture. The book contains authoritative, original information gleaned from the author's own research conducted with hundreds of folk dance enthusiasts across America.

ABOUT THE BOOK This guide to establishing and maintaining a dance ministry is a must read for Pastors, Church Leaders and Ministers of dance. Learn a biblical perspective on the art of worship through dance. Can anyone dance? What is the role of the worshipper through dance? What are the five critical safeguards in establishing a ministry?

If God leads you to begin a dance ministry, then learn the art of establishing a ministry that is holy and pleasing to the Lord by dancing in His presence.
