Over a period spanning almost sixty years, he served the Society first as a Member of the Ballroom Faculty Committee — and it must be remembered that it was this Committee which formulated the Technique of Ballroom Dancing which was then followed worldwide — then as Chairman of that same Faculty for more than 30 years. He continued as the Ballroom Faculty Chairman for many years, he served as Chairman of the Administrative Council and finally as President of the Society, which post he held until 1991. In 1948 when the existing Technique was revised, his keen and analytical brain devised the chart form for our Technique Books which is used until this day. He painstakingly tabulated, proofed and printed the Technique which had been updated by the Ballroom Faculty of the ISTD. In addition to this, the articles in his Monthly Letter Service explaining why many of the changes had been made were of immense value to the Students training for Professional Examinations, as were his various books of “Questions and Answers” on Ballroom Dancing. This kind and gentle genius of dancing has gone, but has left behind a heritage of Dance which will last for ever. BILL IRVINE MBE Vice-President Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing Preface Alex Moore's Revised Technique has for many years been the accepted technique of the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing and practically all other British Societies and by teaching organisations throughout the world. With the development of the Ballroom style over recent years it has become necessary to update the technique and to introduce some popular figures whilst leaving out certain figures which have lost their popularity and are seldom danced. Recently a technical committee of The Ballroom Faculty was formed to undertake the difficult task and after much time and deliberation have produced an updated Ballroom technique. It will be noticed that a slightly different layout has been used which should help the Student when studying for Examinations. Other important changes are the new and simplified wordings in the descriptions and that only permissible precedes and follows are given and not the suggested amalgamations previously given in Alex Moore's book. Finally my personal thanks to the technical committee for their hard work and dedication in producing The Updated Technique of the Imperial Society. ANTHONY HURLEY Chairman Ballroom FacultyTraining for Professional Examinations Teachers who are training professionals for examinations should aim for the following priorities:— 1) A good knowledge and understanding of the technical details. 2) Correct and well balanced solo demonstrations. The Ladies should pay particular attention to the poise when dancing as Man. 3 An understanding of musical requirements, i.c. Time Signatures, Tempi, Counting in beats and bars and beat values. 4 Simple teaching methods. 5) Good voice projection. 6) A professional approach. Professional Syllabus Requirements Note that requirements at all grades from Associate upwards include all Specified Figures for the lower grades, i.e. Associate requirements also include Student Teacher Specified Figures, Licentiate requirements also include Associate and Student Teacher Specified Figures and Fellow includes all figures listed, apart from those on the pages headed “Additional Figures”. Contents Preface. 3 Training for Professional Examinations... 4 How to Study the Charts..... 6 Waltz .... * 9 Foxtrot.........-...- Quickstep... 73 Tango.... Additional Figures...How to Study the Charts The Technique has been issued in chart form, and it is necessary to understand the main headings. It is also important that the Student should understand the general principles. Headings used in the Waltz, Foxtrot, and Quickstep are explained below. It is necessary to treat the Tango as an entirely separate dance, ABBREVIATIONS USED IN THE CHARTS RE Right Foot NER No foot rise LF Left Foot Dw Diagonally to wall R Right DC Diagonally to centre L Left elo End of LOD Line of Dance Com Commence PP Promenade Position Cont Continue CBMP Contrary body movement oP. Outside partner position s Slow (or “straight” referring cBM Contrary body movement to sway) B Ball of foot Q Quick H Heel A Associate T Toe L Licentiate IE Inside Edge F Fellow POSITIONS OF THE FEET These refer to the position of one foot in relation to the other. Other terms included in the Feet Positions are as follows: 1) CBMP (Contrary Body Movement Position) A foot position where the foot is placed on or across the line of the supporting foot, either in front or behind to maintain body line. 2) PP (Promenade Position) A position where the Man's R side and the Lady’s L side are in contact, and the opposite side of the body open to form a V shaped position. 3) OP (Outside Partner) A step outside partner on the R side, 4) SIDE LEADING ‘Taking the same side of the body either forward or backward with the moving foot. ALIGNMENT The position of the feet in relation to the room. Use Facing or Backing when the feet and body are in line, and Pointing when the foot is in a different alignment to the body. AMOUNT OF TURN This is measured between the feet. RISE AND FALL The elevation and lowering that is developed through the feet, legs and body. 6 NO FOOT RISE ise occurs when stepping back on the inside of most turns when the heel of the supporting roa ‘remain in contact ‘eith the floor until full weight is taken on (0 the next step. The rise is felt in the body and legs only. FOOTWORK to the part of the foot in contact with the floor, but it should be noted that in, Waltz, Footwor rr uiskstep te terms “Toe” and “Heel” are used, The term "Toe" is intended to include dae "Ball” of foot. A step forward is given as “Heel”, although it is understood that the whole foot is then used. It is not necessary to say “Heel” then “Flat”. An important rule to remember is that when S foot closes to the other foot from a side position it will close with TOE in contact with the floor CBM (CONTRARY BODY MOVEMENT) ‘A body action. The turning of the opposite side of the body towards the moving foot which is moving forward or back, generally to initiate tur. SWAY ‘Sway is normally the inclination of the body away from the moving foot and towards the inside of the tum — eg. step 2 of Waltz Natural Turn. Sway can be towards the moving foot — eg. step 1 of Hover Feather. Broken Sway is from the waist upwards and is used on such figures as checked Tipple Chasse to R. POISE MAN Stand in an upright position, body braced at the waist, with the weight held forward towards the balls of the feet, shoulders relaxed and head erect. The knecs should be held very slightly flexed. LADY . Stand in an upright position, body braced at the waist, upper part of body and head poised slightly back and a little to the left. Weight held over the balls of the feet with knees held very slightly flexed. HOLDS MAN Stand facing the Lady with the Lady very slightly on the right side, Extend and raise both arms sideways until they are just below the shoulders. Bend the right elbow and place the right hand just below the Lady’s left shoulder blade. Bend the left elbow and take the Lady's right hand, holding the joined hands approximately at eye level. The left forearm should be inclined slightly forward showing an unbroken line from elbow to hand. LADY 5 Place the left hand on the Man’s right arm just below the shoulder. Raise the right arm and place right hand in Man’s left hand.THE FORWARD WALK ‘Stand in an upright position with the feet together and the weight held slightly forward towards the balls of the feet. ‘Swing the leg forward from the hip with the ball of the foot in contact with the floor then with the heel lightly skimming the floor with the toe slightly raised. As soon as the front heel moves past the back toe, the back heel will be released from the floor and at the extent of the stride the weight will be equally divided between the heel of the front foot and the ball of the back foot with the front knee straight and the back knee slightly flexed. The front toe will then immediately lower as the weight of the body moves forward. The back foot commences to move forward with first the toe then the ball of foot skimming the floor until the feet are level and the back foot then continues forward into the next step. THE BACKWARD WALK Stand in an upright position with the feet together and the weight held forward over the balls of the feet Move the foot back with the ball of foot then the toe skimming the floor, then lower again onto the ball of the foot. As soon as the back foot moves past the front heel, the front toe will be released from the floor so that at the extent of the stride the weight will be equally divided between the ball of the back foot and the heel of the front foot, the back knee will be slightly flexed and the front knee straight. The front foot then commences to move back first with the heel and then with the ball of foot skimming the floor until the feet are level when the back heel will lower. IT IS MOST. IMPORTANT THAT THE BACK HEEL LOWERS VERY SLOWLY AND WITH CONTROL. HEEL TURN A tum that is first commenced on the ball of the stepping foot and then continued on the heel, the closing foot being kept parallel throughout. The weight is transferred on to the foot that has closed as the turn is completed. HEEL PULL A type of Heel Turn. The tum to right is made on the heel of the supporting foot, and the moving foot is pulled back and to the side of the supporting foot (slightly apart), heel first, inside edge of foot, then flat. TANGO For all definitions relating to Tango, turn to the beginning of the Tango section of the book, page 98 SPECIAL NOTE “NATURAL” AND “REVERSE” TURNS Note that all “Natural” Turns turn to right and all “Reverse”” Turns turn to left.
