Each one provides a useful reflection upon the role of the dance artist going into specific environments to lead dance. Dance and Age Inclusive Practice - for dance leaders bringing different age groups together in their communities, by Ruth Pethybridge.

In the year 2000, over 4 million people participated in community dance in the UK each week. Rosemary Lee and Peter Anderson's film, Dancing Nation, provides a unique view of the dancing lives of four of those people: a 15 year old break-dancer in Warrington, a woman who is spending her retirement as a member of AMICI Dance Theatre in London, a 19 year old dancer with African Cultural Exchange in Birmingham and a father in his mid-40s with DugOut Adult Community Dance in Oxford. It reveals both the value and the impact of dance on them and their communities.

A dance film for people and organisations working in or with dance, Dancing Nation (on VHS + 80 page booklet, running time: 40 mins) is indispensable for demonstrating the value and benefit of community dance.
