Booklet
Dancing the Whole Dance: ECD - Global/Positional Strategies for Teaching, Learning, and Dancing English Country Dance is the latest publication from CDSS.
Authored by Brooke Friendly, based on her 40 years of calling experience and dozens of workshops of the same name, the book is a comprehensive how-to for callers looking to transform their calling from relying on gendered language to a global/positional approach.
Everything from terminology to teaching and learning strategies, dance selection, and a system for categorizing dances, with appendices and examples. While tailored to ECD callers, the booklet provides advice that is widely applicable and will be useful to Scottish, contra, and square callers as well.
