Burrows, J. (2010). A choreographer’s handbook. Routledge.
‘Deciding not to have any principles is also a principle. (…) The only question is this: whichever way you’re working, is this the way you want to work? (…) You are you, and only you can make what you can make. You’re going to make the piece you’re going to make, whichever way you choose and try and make it.’

De achterflap van het boek:
‘A Choreographer’s Handbook invites the reader to investigate how and why to make a dance performance. In an inspiring and unusually empowering sequence of stories, ideas and paradoxes, internationally renowned dancer, choreographer and teacher Jonathan Burrows explains how it’s possible to navigate a course through this complex process. (…) Burrows’ open and honest prose gives the reader access to a range of exercises, meditations, principles and ideas on choreography that allow artists and dance-makers to find their own aesthetic process. It is a book for anyone interested in making performance, at whatever level and in whichever style.’
