Product Description
Ballroom Solo Development Awards addresses a practical teaching need: continuing partner-dance study when pupils are working alone. Michelle Webster, a multi-genre Ballroom Examiner, proposed the idea, and an NATD committee developed the progressive syllabus in relation to the organisation's existing Ballroom and Latin American material. The product listing also identifies Ballroom, Latin and Rock 'n' Roll among its dance categories.
Warm-up and cool-down exercises are an explicit addition to the usual syllabus approach. They give the solo award programme a broader session structure than simply asking a pupil to dance a partnered routine alone. Teachers can use the written material when preparing solo award work and considering how preparation, dance activity and completion fit into the pupil's session.
NATD also publishes a complementary video resource by Patron and Multi Genre Examiner Steven Verrall. His shadow-dancing ideas are presented as material that could be used for Solo Dance Development Award work. The organisation's video page provides the resource independently of this PDF Ebook, so customers can consult the written syllabus and the separately available visual material without assuming that a video file is bundled with the book.
