In her strong defense of dance and its application to female physical education, Mrs. Webster declares that dancing as exercise "is the very best safeguard against the evils of over mental education." While she approves of calisthenics and various mechanical apparatus--including swings and pulleys and a "prone couch"--she delivers a stinging rebuke regarding the wearing of corsets. While Mrs. Webster recommends dance as an excellent remedial exercise, she insists that some parts of classical ballet are ill-designed for effecting good health due to their severity--in particular first and fifth positions. She also considers that dancing is beneficial to boys who, while they generally take more physical exercise than girls, rarely encounter "measured motion".

Mixed methods research techniques, combining both quantitative and qualitative elements, have become well established throughout the social, behavioural and natural sciences. This is the first book to focus on the application of mixed methods research in the movement sciences, specifically in sport, physical education and dance. Researchers and practitioners in each of these fields are concerned with the study of habitual behaviour in naturalistic contexts, and of the concurrent and sequential nature of events and states, precisely the kind of work that multi-method research design can help illuminate. The book is arranged into four sections. The first provides a thorough overview of mixed methods procedures and research design, and summarizes their applicability to the movement sciences. The remaining sections then offer detailed case studies of mixed methods research in team and individual sports (analyzing hidden patterns of play and optimising technique); kinesics and dance (analyzing motor skills behaviour in childhood, and the complexity of motor responses in dance); and physical education (detecting interaction patterns in group situations, and optimizing non-verbal communication by teachers and sports coaches). Mixed Methods Research in the Movement Sciences offers an important new tool for researchers and helps to close the gap between the analysis of expert performance and our understanding of the general principles of movement science. It is important reading for any student, researcher or professional with an interest in motor control, sport and dance pedagogy, coaching, performance analysis or decision-making in sport.

Excerpt from Natural Rhythms and Dances The satisfaction of human wants is the most important business of the world when judged by the activity of men and women everywhere. Contrariwise the education and training of people to want that which is good is infinitely more worth while. Without pausing to define the "good" it may be suggested that men would gain greatly by preservation and restoration of the essentials of a simple environment - pure air, open spaces, opportunity for physical activity, less of commercialized recreation and more of simple social life corrected by artistic and educational criteria. Modern man has builded great cities, he has erected economic standards of success, he has transformed the world industrially and has forced himself into a life of sedentary toil. When he looks at the result of his work he finds it is not good and then foolishly sets about devising special exercises to be practiced daily with phonograph accompaniment, or doing breathing exercises for health's sake, or eating yeast rather than wholesome foods because his factory organizations have made wholesome foods nearly impossible. In combating the handicaps and hazards of modern life, it has not always been clear that the way lay in a restoration of the desirable elements in nature. Physical education will make its contribution in modern times, not by proposing artificialities, such as aesthetic dancing and Swedish gymnastics, but rather by emphasizing the essential needs of man and by offering natural forms that represent the best motor expressions of the human race. It is a pleasure to note the philosophic significance of the work that Miss Colby is doing in her classes and in this book that she is bringing to teachers of physical education. Natural Rhythms and Dances is reflecting in Physical Education a new spirit of the times. The wholesome interest in posture, the era of sane dress, the play and recreation movement, the crusade against the sedentary life, the open air and camping programs, the recognition of athletics for girls as well as boys - all attest to the appreciation of the necessity for real and natural procedures as contrasted with the artificial substitutes often proposed. Natural Rhythms and Dances is symbolic of a new spirit in Physical Education itself. It calls for a new emphasis; it connotes new meanings. In particular it says that those who dance must dance as a child, expressing in natural outward forms, inner thoughts and feelings. It is impatient with posturings, with poses, with self-consciousness, with artificiality, with dillentantism. I have had the opportunity and pleasure of seeing most of the material of the book worked out in dramatic form. The rhythms are true copies. They bear no false document of identity, but can serve elsewhere as they have served at Teachers College.
