To learn to intuit and to understand the movements in your body and to
receive the response that they inspire in the body of your partner, is
the essence of his art and teaching. His simple but detailed breakdown
of movement techniques, balance, floor-craft and his ability to
discover each dancers unique style and skill, help the dancer, at any
level, to discover and/or heighten their ability and confidence to
dance, blending technique and emotion, sensuality and restraint.
