Reseña del editor

This, the first effort of the author, is an endeavor to place in the hands of teachers of physical education a book which may assist them in presenting to girls and womens classes the fascinating and graceful rhythmic movements of classic and aesthetic dancing. It is an effort to extend the work begun by the late Mr. Melvin B. Gilbert, who was the first to arrange these artistic steps and movements into pleasing dances suitable for gymnastic purposes, thereby contributing a most valuable class of exercises to physical education. Whereas the physical education of today, in its broad interpretation, is comparatively modern, dancing is rather a primitive activity. It appears in crude form, crude from our present viewpoint, in the life of primitive peoples, when on sad, joyous, and various other occasions dances chiefly of an imitative character were performed by members of a tribe to the accompaniment of equally crude music. From these early beginnings dancing has incessantly continued to develop. Forms of stepping and springing, and other bodily movements peculiar to the dances of certain tribes, were imitated by others; new forms and combinations were invented and passed on to future generations; the pleasing and exhilarating activities were preserved, and with time the more complicated were preferred to the simple and easy.
