Confession — We are neither experts nor professionals. We are dancers and are simply presenting what we are dancing and learning at the moment. Writing it out helps us to learn, and of course we hope that you can find something of interest, too.

These aren't our ideas or figures. We are relying heavily on Roundalab's manual of phase-rated figures (1998, 2003) and URDC's technical manual (2004). We use all that we can pick up from our teachers and their web sites (see our links page), from books mentioned in various introductory paragraphs and in the table below, and from many, many published cue sheets.

Therefore, we are happy to have anyone use this material for non-profit, educational purposes. Please give appropriate credit, and provide a link back to this site. On the other hand, please do not use this material for any commercial purpose.

We have tried to credit all of our sources, but if you find any material of yours being used in a way that you do not appreciate, please let us know, and we will remove it.
