Excerpt from The Chalif Text Book of Dancing, Vol. 2

In dancing, therefore, both halves must be used. In exercises, we may dispense with traversing space and with climax, in a Port de Bras exercise of the arms alone. But we can not reverse the omission and have an exercise concerning the feet alone, for that would be one devoid of beauty.

When we say, as in Russia, that a good dan cer is recognized by his arms it is because here we most clearly realize beauty. And hence we see why I have always so emphasized the use of the upper half of the body.
