THE THIRD and final lesson on the Foxtrot will be given in the "Modern Ballroom Dancing session from 3YA at 9.30 p.m. on July 14, when A. L. Leghorn will demonstrate the Reverse Turn. Once this has been mastered the dancer should have enough variety of steps to take the floor with reasonable confidence, and enough knowledge to link up the various figures smoothly, But to obtain most pleasure from this dance, rather more room is required than for other modern dances, and the music, too, must be at the correct tempo—about 30 bars to the minute, and not varying more than about two bars a minute either way.
