The Fascinating Boston / How to Dance and How to Teach the Popular New Social Favorite

This work is a practical manual for social dancing centered on the Boston, offering step-by-step instruction on footwork, partner positions, weight transfer, and posture. It explains fundamental positions and the standard partner hold, then breaks the Boston into variations—long, short, open steps and the Boston dip—supplemented by technical guidance for teaching and adapting movements to different melodies. Guidance on musical timing, rhythm, and graceful carriage appears alongside concise directions for related contemporary dances such as the Turkey Trot, Aeroplane Glide, and Tango, making the book both a how-to for learners and a reference for instructors.
