How To Dance With a Partner
Andrew Weitzen
"I have been a huge fan of your method. Thanks so much for early access several years ago." ~ Paul, ballroom dance instructor
Learn how to lead and follow every step following the three laws of balance, connection, and direction. This is the only unambiguous method of communicating in social dancing. This is the safest, easiest, and most natural way to dance with a partner. You learn to dance without the use of force. You improve your balance. You learn to dance as light as a feather.
"Your method really works. When I went back to Los Angeles, everyone was telling me how good of a follower I was. They said all the other ladies were pulling on them, but I was so easy to dance with." ~ Tanya, social dancer
This is the solution to a 1,000-year-old problem and the most important advance since men and women began dancing together. Men and women have been dancing together at least as far back as the eleventh century. For the first time, you know what to do without confusion. Learn to communicate once. Apply the same principles in all your dancing.
"These rules are great. How come everybody does not know them?" ~ Anne, social dancer
