SQUARE DANCE Will Become One of Your "Regulars" Each Month on Your Required Reading List

k. Read for Fun and Profit!

As we all know, reading is probably the easiest and best way to become informed about almost any subject. Unfortunately (especially for us publishers) not everyone likes to read. However, most people enjoy reading about their favorite sport, hobby or activity when they CAN FIND THE TIME.

In this busy, busy world, especially if one is an active square and round dancer, we must MAKE TIME for reading. Get in the habit of reading square and round dance books, magazines and other publications at least an hour every week.

Set aside a specific day and time if possible. However you do it, get into the reading habit. You'll find you're enjoying your dancing more because you're better informed.

We hope that SQUARE DANCE will become one of your "regulars" each month on your required reading list.

Square dancing is as old as the United States. The pioneers brought the basic dance forms from which square dancing evolved with them from their homelands. It is a part of our heritage and is as American as the flag and the eagle. Square dancing is the American National Dance. During the past few years—since World War II—square dancing has grown in popularity. Today, according to many impartial surveys conducted by newspapers, magazines, and polls, it is the most popular form of participant recreation in this country. More people square dance every year than bowl, boat, or golf. These people enjoy their hobby. Because they like square dancing and the people they meet, square dancers are the best salespeople for square dancing. They tell their friends, neighbors, and associates about the fun and fellowship that is a vital part of square dancing. • During the past months, you've read about how square dancing has changed the lives of a few of our subscribers. Ev- ery square dancer has an equally inspiring and interesting story to tell. This story can be shared with square dancers everywhere through the pages of SQUARE DANCE Magazine. Details about our Contest are in this issue. When you're traveling this summer, promote square dancing by displaying a square dance decal or bumper sticker on your car or travel trailer to identify you. Wear western clothing so that others readily recognize you as a square dancer when you are dancing at daytime or evening sessions. Support the National Square Dance Association and its program. With your help the NSDA can do much to promote square dancing on a national level. Our image is continually improving. Let's keep moving in the right direction. Wherever you go this summer, square dance! Have a nice summer.

Peg and Gerry Mace of Ottawa, Ont. have been leading Canadian round dance teachers for ten years. They are the authors of several popular rounds, including My Affection (Windsor) and La Ronda Waltz (Hi Hat). B The square and round dance activity has had a considerable social effect on our lives. In addition to moderate physical exercise, it has brought mental relaxation, personal enjoyment, and a sense of achievement to us. A recent class of new dancers gave us gifts which were probably more appreciated than any others we have received. They were badges with a single word on each badge. One read PA- TIENCE, the other UNDERSTANDING. Surely these qualities should be the philosophical basis upon which round dance instruction is built. Of course, com- petent dancing and instructing ability come first, together with the character and personality which make the teaching couple acceptable as leaders. Round dancers themselves are also responsible to their own personal tastes and abilities. Fol- lowing are several hints to help you enhance your round dance pleasure. KNOW YOUR DANCE LEVEL Different levels of dancing appeal to different people. The indiscriminate group- ing of all dancers and all levels is not desirable unless the more enthusiastic dancers are given the opportunity to tackle the more difficult rounds. This can be a problem with smaller groups, but with a little organization, leaders can keep all the dancers in the fold. Dancers, ask your teachers for periodic styling sessions. These will maintain, or if necessary, revive interest. WATCH YOUR STYLING There are almost as many styles as there are round dance couples. Styling is very much a matter for the individual which should be emphasized immediately with new dancers. Dancers must realize that style is affected by physical qualities. The tall man and petite lady cannot express their dance movements in the same way as a short man and tall lady. There are certain styling fundamentals which all dancers can observe to achieve a degree of similarity in dancing styles. Too much emphasis cannot be put on encouraging new dancers to develop a smooth, gliding, or flowing style. It is vital that instructors set the example. Teachers must style their own dancing so that new dancers get the feeling that round dancing is within their capabilities. Instructors who affect an extremely elaborate or fancy style invariably produce an "I could never do that" reaction among new dancers. Moderation of one's own style is a challenge that faces every teacher. LEARN A VARIETY OF DANCE RYTHMS In recent years the varying rhythms of the polka, cha cha, tango, and an occasional English quick-step have joined the long-standing waltz and two-step. This has been a natural development for dancers and teachers alike to avoid monotony in dance programs. You will find that knowing a variety of dance rhythms allows teachers a wider program range and dancers the fun of doing all types of dances. Of special interest are the tango and English quick-step. The tango has enhanced the round dance activity with its slow-quick-quick-slow rhythm. It has a fascination about it and is easy to do even though it appears difficult to the novice. A brief ex- posure to tango can be included in a 20 week instruction course. Teachers should caution dancers not to over-exaggerate their styling in tango. The English quick- step has the same basic rhythm as the tango, i.e., slow-slow-quick-quick-slow. How- ever, the tempo is faster. Body poise and weight distribution are important factors in effective execution and enjoyment of the quick-step.

Through dancing we have become part of a movement whose greatest gift to us has been our association with a wonderful group of people who call themselves round dancers. ■ 9 SQUARE DANCE ASSOCIATION

"To be successful, a square dance organization must keep up to date as well as furnish services for the area and do it better, easier, and more efficiently than the individual club. The more dances and clubs in an area, the greater the need for the organization. And an association promoting area wide presents a better image of square dancing than a one club promotion. If the organization did nothing more than end conflict of dates, it would be worthwhile. The only club or dancer that does not need an as- Patter sociation is one square, one club, one caller who do not visit or want visitors . . . . "There is a definite need for ded- icated, intellectual, knowledgeable area wide leadership. It would stag- ger the imagination to know the good in that could be done if the brains from all the clubs would work together for the promotion of square dance association. We have not scratched the surface in our square dance potential, so let us scrap the horse and buggy equipment Print and re-tool for the atomic age."—Frank Cornwall, Florida Federation Bow and Swing (Miami, Fla.)

The club members were SQUARE DANCE MAGAZINE'S wonderfully patient and helpful. There were many times I wished I "HOW SQUARE could have hid somewhere because of the goofs I made.

We've happily continued our square and round dance activities. We visit clubs in our area, Northwestern Colorado, and attend as many festi- vals and special events as we can. We are looking forward to next year's Colorado State Festival which will be hosted by our own city of Grand Junction. So you see, square dancing has really changed my life. I love every bit of it. When Clarence retires next year, we hope to travel and do a lot of square dancing along the way. We hope to have the pleasure of dancing with many folks from all parts of the country very soon. 12 Edited by Willard Orlich
