Dancing Through Life!

Fred Astaire National Dance Director Antoinette Benevento, along with acclaimed writer/editor Edwin Dobb, shares the lessons she has learned on and off the dance floor in this warm and encouraging self-help book, Dancing Through Life, due out in September of 2007. Through her 25 years in the dance world, Antoinette has discovered that getting out on the dance floor is a powerful and empowering metaphor for living fully in all realms of life. Her book will be an inspiration to all!
Some of the tenets that Antoinette lives, dances, and teaches include:

• Persistence is a form of beauty.
• Give yourself permission to begin again - and again and again.
• If you're not willing to risk falling, you'll never learn to walk (or dance)
• Desire is the energy that moves us forward in dance and in life.
• To dance well and to live fully, body and soul need to work together.

Building on the ballroom dance craze that has swept the nation, including the popularity of the TV show Dancing With The Stars, Dancing Through Life shows that what you learn on the dance floor can help you dance through life.
