My Book

'Yes, You CAN Dance' was written to educate the reader on what couple dancing is, and even more importantly, what it is NOT. It is NOT a talent, it is a skill that can be learned by anyone. One doesn't have to know rhythm; that, too, can be taught. It was written to help the reader overcome any excuse they might have for not learning to dance.

'Yes, You CAN Dance' will help you to learn about what it takes to learn to dance. You will learn about the different kinds of lessons, how to get lessons for less, how studios work and how teachers are taught and certified. There are lots of insider tips throughout.
