This new edition of the Laird Technique of Latin Dancing is the first major revision since 2014. It is a definite 'must have' for anyone training candidates for IDTA Professional Examinations and for candidates studying this technique.
The revision includes new charted figures, with the deletion or amendment of some other figures. There are also some technical changes and new information given. Repetitive information has been reduced and a clearer format presented in some areas.
The IDTA Professional Examination Syllabus is currently being revised but it will include some of these new figures when it will come into effect in 2023.
Please note: Addendum to the Laird Technique of Latin Dancing by Walter Laird (2022)
