Beschreibung

Forbidden Moves explores the intriguing and often controversial world of dance, examining techniques considered extreme, dangerous, or culturally inappropriate. The book delves into the biomechanics of dance, revealing how pushing physical limits can lead to injuries, while also investigating the cultural and social contexts that define acceptable movement. Did you know that some dance movements have been historically censored due to religious or political ideologies? This book uniquely combines scientific rigor with cultural awareness, encouraging critical thinking about the responsibilities of dancers, choreographers, and audiences.

 
The book's approach is multifaceted, drawing on scientific research, historical documents, and firsthand accounts. It begins by establishing a foundation with definitions and key concepts, then explores specific dance styles and case studies, such as hyper-extended backbends. The book analyzes examples of movements that have been either banned, heavily restricted, or debated for their potential harm or cultural insensitivity.

 
Finally, it synthesizes these observations to offer guidelines for responsible dance practice, choreography, and performance, providing practical advice for injury prevention, ethical collaboration, and culturally informed artistic expression.

    Professional golfer Andrew "Beef" Johnston has played in the world's biggest tournament, won big-money events, and sunk monster putts while fans were booming out his nickname: "BEEEEEEF!" On the downside, Beef has also duffed it, thinned it, and shanked it like every single person who's ever played the game. Because no matter who you are, golf can make you look like an idiot. 
     
     
     
    Golf is Hard reflects on Beef's early years at his local Pitch & Putt to his stellar career playing against the best on the greatest courses on the planet, taking you inside the world of professional golf like no book before. With painfully honest stories, Beef delves into the pressure of the profession, but also shares golfing advice and side-splitting behind-the-scenes insights to bring a new perspective to the game. What is Tiger Woods really like in the locker room? How did it feel to hit one of the worst shots in golf history in front of millions of viewers during the British Open? And just how many clubs has Beef broken through fits of rage and frustration during his illustrious career? 
     
     
     
    This is a book for everyone who has ever loved and loathed the game in equal measure but managed to see the funny side. After all, golf is really hard, so you might as well have a laugh about it along the way.
