Download or read book The Sexual Politics of Ballroom Dancing written by Vicki Harman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an engaging sociological investigation into how gender is negotiated and performed in ballroom and Latin dancing that draws on extensive ethnographic research, as well as the author’s own experience as a dancer. It explores the key factors underpinning the popularity of this leisure activity and highlights what this reveals more broadly about the nature of gender roles at the current time. The author begins with an overview of its rich social history and shifting class status, establishing the context within which contemporary masculinities and femininities in this community are explored. Real and imagined gendered traditions are examined across a range of dancer experiences that follows the trajectory of a typical learner: from finding a partner, attending lessons and forming networks, through to taking part in competitions. The analysis of these narratives creates a nuanced picture of a dance culture that is empowering, yet also highly consumerist and image-conscious; a highly ritualised set of practices that both reinstate and transgress gender roles. This innovative contribution to the feminist leisure literature will appeal to students and scholars of anthropology, dance, sport, gender, cultural and media studies.

Download or read book Mapping Leisure across Borders written by Gianna Cappello and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In current academic debates, leisure is increasingly defined as a discursive construction originating both from the specific meanings created by individuals, and the institutionalizing processes that legitimate certain experiences and their spatial-temporal conditions as “leisure”. As a result of social construction and the different social conditions existing at a certain historical moment in different societies, the borders among the various aspects of leisure are becoming more and more blurred; as is the case, for instance, with the borders between leisure and work activities. Such border-crossing is the leitmotif of this book. Although focusing on sociological research, it has in fact a multidisciplinary scope and will appeal to a variety of scholars and students interested in the study of leisure in contemporary society as a fundamental dimension of everyday sociality and sociability with very important effects on social cohesion as a whole. After an introductory section, offering general frames on key definitions of leisure and leisure issues, five other sections follow which concentrate on more specific aspects of leisure practices and forms in contemporary society.

Download or read book Strictly Steps written by Joe Sidor and published by Xlibris Us. This book was released on 2022-05-15 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people fall into one of the following levels of dance experience: a) Never danced with a partner, b) Wiggled around the dance floor like a fish out of water, c) Enrolled in a dance class, became disillusioned and dropped out, d) Took a dance class several years ago, e) Took dance classes, even recently, but rarely practiced away from class, f) Completed at least one dance class but need a refresher, g) Able to dance some dances but would like to know more, h) Able to dance several dances well. You need not read further and may go back to being emersed in your "smartphone", if you: 1) fall into categories a, b, or c, given above, or 2) claim no need for any of the wellness benefits from ballroom dancing or 3) find it a challenge to read a road map. However, if you are serious about learning ballroom dancing or recalling steps you had once learned, it is suggested that you first complete at least ten hours of group-type lessons before attempting to follow dance step diagrams as presented in this book. Classes will also teach the other body part movements, such as arm, hip, and head, that are necessary to dance with style. This book provides approximately 200 patterns covering 12 popular ballroom dances. Part A includes diagrams, corresponding instructions for basic patterns, and for ranges of tempos (beats per minute, bpm). Part A may be used to ease the reader into following the more complex movements in Part B Part B provides diagrams for more beginner and some intermediate-level patterns.
