International Syllabus

I was wondering if somebody could tell me where I can find the books (or a web site) that contains the international syllabus (latin and standard) I am looking for the books that's giving all the details about the steps and the technique. Unfortunately, my teacher is in England. My partner and I are competing in the Silver level and we are having a few arguments over the excution on certain steps. I am located in Montréal,Qc (Canada)

Thank you in advance
Estrella

You can purchase all the ISTD Int'l Standard and Latin syllabus books through our online store. Just click on the "Shopping" link on the LH side of the page, then follow the link to the book store.

We will also happily do our best to answer any questions you may have regarding technique right here on the messae board. That's what it's here for!

Jonathan,
Thank you very much for your reply. I just ordered the book for Standard. I've noticed that concerning the Latin all the dances are on separated books. Do you have a book that contains them all or do I have to order the five books?

P.S. Congratulations on your web site and all the services it provides for us.

The ISTD which is the publisher of these split the latin series into seperate books several years ago.

The ISTD publish a single volume Latin Technique (by Laird), which seems to be considered the Bible for latin technique. I managed to get a bargain copy on EBay a while back for just a few £s, but ordered direct from ISTD website it is quite expensive.

Sorry, my previous message should, of course, have referred to the IDTA's Latin Technique, not ISTD.
