Dave Madison has been part of the Blues Dancing scene since the very beginnings of the contemporary social Blues dance scene.

From that perspective, he has learned a number of things, and he is often asked about the history of contemporary Blues dancing and the issues surrounding it, and this has inspired him to write a few articles on the subject.

Articles

• The history of contemporary social blues dancing
  (written in response to a request by Julie Brown)
• Blues dancing is a street dance
  (and how it effects organizers and teacher selection)
• The trouble with competitions
• On The Alleged Lascivious Nature Of Blues Dancing
• The Trouble With "Rockstar" Dancers

Disclaimer: These articles are written from the perspective of one (very opinionated) dancer and should be recognized as such.
