In 2011 the Stevens sisters of PBDA were contracted to write a historical reference guide to SWING DANCING, which has become a textbook at several universities around the country. Tami and Erin can sign the books, and personalize copies as well!  The books are available in the classes, or by calling our office phone (626) 799-5689, or thru Amazon.com!
