Complete Manual of Ice Dance Patterns

VANCOUVER, CANADA - If you ever wanted to know how to do the Cha Cha Congelado or the Flirtation Waltz on ice, then you'll want a copy of THE COMPLETE MANUAL OF ICE DANCE PATTERNS. Hot off the press, the "manual" is receiving rave reviews from skaters, coaches & judges alike. "The responses have been exceptional," says Jeff Lerner, who not only wrote the manual but published it as well. "I took it to Skate Canada recently & the comments from the international skating community were overwhelming." Lerner, who began ice dancing a decade ago, started collecting dance patterns as a hobby, however the pastime soon became all-absorbing. "There was so much interest that I decided to publish it." The result is an impressive manual in large (8 1/2 X 11") format that includes 152 ISU & social ice dance patterns as well as detailed lists of steps. The manual pulls together the myriad of past & present dances, familiar & not so familiar, published & non-published. The book contains: 43 waltzes, 26 tangos, 23 marches, 21 foxtrots, 13 blues, 12 polkas, four rhumbas, three sambas, three schottisches, three barn dances & hoedowns, two cha chas & one paso doble.Lerner, Jeff R. is the author of 'Complete Manual of Ice Dance Patterns', published 1992 under ISBN 9780969653806 and ISBN 0969653808.
