Learning from Dance: Fred Astaire and the Fine Art of Balance, Rhythm and Fluidity

What can Fred Astaire's masterful dance to "Puttin' on the Ritz" teach tennis players about court movement?

Observe carefully:
*Balance from the core
*Relaxed fluidity
*Moving gracefully to rhythm
*The power of rotation
*Supreme confidence in body language

Fantastic!

Best,
Gary
