Query: Good overview of jazz technique

This book is a good introduction to jazz dance and emphasizes the building of technique not only via the steps and movements themselves but with also from an appreciation of the cultural origins of the dance. It could be read by dancers or teachers needing an organized set of exercises, or by those who want a deeper appreciation of this form of dance. There are many good photographs in the book, and many illustrations of human anatomy to assist in the discovery of the muscles involved in dance. The opposition of forces and movements, and the many isolations in the body, give jazz its unique characteristics. This interesting and fun art form is nicely summarized in this book.
