'A clarion call to get up on the dance floor.' FINANCIAL TIMES

Why do we dance together? What does dancing tell us about ourselves, individually and collectively? Whether at home, in '80s club nights, Irish dancehalls or youth centres, Emma Warren has sought the answers to these questions her entire life. Dancing is a part of our stories - the part that finds us as children dancing on the toes of adults; that triggers communication across borders and languages; that embraces ordinary dancing, hesitant dancers and the joy of moving to music. Dance Your Way Home speaks to the heart of what it is that makes us move - wherever and whenever that may be.

'A fast track in understanding the secret formula that brings on collective euphoria through music and dance. It's brilliant.' GILES PETERSON

'A wonderful book so full of knowledge, love and joy.' WENDY ERSKINE

Emma Warren has been documenting grassroots music culture for decades. She is the author of Make Some Space: Tuning Into Total Refreshment Centre (2019), which was a MOJO book of the year and was re-released by Chicago record label International Anthem; her pamphlet Steam Down: Or How Things Begin (2019), which was published by Rough Trade Books and was named an Irish Times read of the year; and Document Your Culture: A Manual (2020).

Warren was a founding contributor to Jockey Slut magazine, worked on staff at The Face and worked as the editorial mentor at youth-run Brixton publication Live Magazine. Her monthly radio show on Worldwide FM ran for six years.
