I can say firsthand that Join Up Hands is like a cookbook by a master chef in which every recipe is a surefire, five-star hit.
Jeremy Korr, community dance leader, California |
Join Up Hands is a music educator’s gold mine of easy-to-follow dance instruction, helpful tips, and charmingly heartfelt anecdotes. This book is the next best thing to having Ms. Sue visit your classroom.
Lisa Schoen, music teacher, Minnesota |
Join Up Hands is part dance collection, part creative how-to manual for dance callers, part ode to the power of community dancing. But more than anything it is a glimpse into Sue's creative teaching ability, and the next best thing to spending an evening at one of her dances!
Marian Rose, caller and musician, British Columbia |
Join Up Hands is an extraordinary collection of simple American dances for use in school and community settings. In addition to clearly-explained dance directions, Sue offers helpful teaching tips drawn from 30 years of experience as a music teacher and a visiting artist. You'll find advice for new callers, sample calling language, suggestions for adapting dances to different ages, and thoughtful essays on the value of community dancing. Highly recommended!
