It has the power to break down barriers and bring people together. The Culture of Dance: The Power to Create, Connect, and Master serves to capture dance as it relates to the three universal elements of interaction. It provides insight into the ways dance has been used in culture throughout time to inspire creativity, enrich connections, and enhance mastery. The chapters of The Culture of Dance explore many categories of dance, including performance, competitive, political, community-building, commercial, fitness, and therapy. In addition to ballet and modern theater dance, The Culture of Dance also explores the broader perspective of dance as it has existed in cultures throughout history. The variety of authors and viewpoints enhance the wonderful world of dance in so many enriching ways. The Culture of Dance is a healthy, active, and informative journey. It is ideal for courses related to dance, health, fitness, and wellness.Dr. Wendy Guess has studied and taught healthy behavioral change through dance, fitness, and wellness since 1984.
