"[This book's] free-wheeling interest across various creative forms is one of the main points that sets this book apart and leads to its success.....The approach...frees the student to develop his or her own patterns and habits, rather than imposing some regimen that works for Tharp....It deserves a wide audience among general readers and should not be relegated to the self-help sections of bookstores."
