Books for real situations

Understand differently.
Prepare differently.
Act differently.

Practical perspectives on judging and performance in dance.

Two English-language books, each extended by a specialised Assistant designed to help readers explore their own situations rather than apply ready-made answers.

Choose the situation that concerns you. The detailed book pages do the rest.

Two areas, two ways in

The English site currently presents the titles already available in English. Additional publications may be added later.

Cover of Judging in Dance

Judging and understanding judgement

What if judging better began with understanding what our attention selects… and what it leaves out?

Judging in Dance explores the human mechanisms involved when we observe, compare and decide.

For adjudicators, dancers, coaches, teachers and trainers.

Included with the bookJudging Assistant — a multilingual extension for exploring personal judging situations.
Cover of When the Unexpected Takes the Floor

Mental preparation and competition

You step onto the floor with your choreography and your certainties. The unexpected steps onto the floor too.

When the Unexpected Takes the Floor helps competitors understand what changes when competition no longer resembles training — and prepare ways of responding.

For competitors, couples, coaches and teachers.

Included with the bookCompetitor Assistant — to analyse situations, ask questions and explore personal strategies to test.
