WORDS OF WISDOM FROM ARTHUR MURRAY HIMSELF

WORDS OF WISDOM FROM ARTHUR MURRAY HIMSELF

As I was doing a little winter cleaning over the holidays, I stumbled upon a wonderful piece of history - a copy of “Arthur Murray’s Dance Book” from the early 1940’s.

These little booklets were part of how Mr. Murray spread the joys and teachings of dancing to masses. Each book contained illustrations, diagrams, anecdotes, stories, Do’s & Don’ts, advice, and more. Once I found the book, I took a few moments to flip through the tea-stained pages and found an article written by Mr. Murray himself that just had to share.

In it, he describes how he came to love dancing, the obstacles he overcame, and what he believes dancing could do for the nation.
