Book Reviews of Frank Hatchett's Jazz Dance

Book Review: Comprehensive Guide to Jazz Dance Methods
Summary: 5 Stars

Frank Hatchett and Nancy Myers Gitlin have provided a thoroughly comprehensive guide to jazz dance. Whether enthusiastic novice or experienced jazz dancer, this book is a tremendous resource on the methodology of jazz dance. The unique expressive nature of Frank Hatchett's jazz style is captured and broken down, with detailed warm-ups and movements, truly helpful technique tips and anecdotes from the authors. The history of this unique style of jazz dance is documented, which is a great resource for those studying dance at the collegiate level. What I found particularly helpful is understanding the various elements of Frank's style, known as VOP, and becoming comfortable with now teaching this to my students. The book even has an introduction by one of Frank's star students---Brooke Shields! Nancy Myers Gitlin has done a great job collaborating with this dance legend to document this influential jazz dance style. I would recommend this book HIGHLY!
