Synopsis
Indian clubs, once popular exercise equipment used by people of all ages throughout the United States, are now appreciated as a form of American folk art. Tracing their history, this book discusses their progress from training equipment for the British Army in colonial India to fashionable status first in Victorian England and then in America, where choreographed club swinging became both an exercise mania and a competitive sport., Indian clubs, once a form of exercise equipment used by men, women, and children across the country, are now a popular folk art collectible. This book traces the Indian club from its inception in India, where it was adapted for drills by the occupying Brit. army, to its fashionable status in Victorian England, to its vogue in Amer. where, from the 1860s to about 1930, choreographed club swinging was both an exercise mania and a competitive sport. Color photos showcase the decorative detail -- inlaid wood patterns, tin and brass appliqu}s, and painted designs, as well as whimsical decorations. Period ads, diagrams, posters, and photos document the sport of club swinging in its heyday. Also addresses criteria for evaluating clubs. Includes a useful resource directory.
