Social Partner Dance: Body, Sound, and Space is an ethnographic
theory of social partner dancing built on participant observation
and interviews with instructors of tango, lindy hop, salsa, blues,
and various other forms. The work establishes a general analytical
language for the study of these dances, based on the premise that a
thorough understanding of any lead/follow form must consider in
depth how it manages the four-part relationship between self,
partner, music, and surroundings. Each chapter begins with a brief
vignette on a distinct dance form and explores the focused worlds
of partnered dancing done for the joy and entertainment of the
dancers themselves. Grounded intellectually in embodiment studies
and sensory ethnography, and empirically in ethnographic fieldwork,
Social Partner Dance promotes scholarship that understands the
social, cultural, and political functions of partner dance through
its embodied practice.
