There's a lot of good concrete advice there, and the newer web-based forums are only just starting to reach a similar depth.

As I read that quote, he's trying to illustrate follower frame, rather than body leads. Even when I apply an "arm lead" to my partner's hand, I still want her entire body, not just her hand.

Good point. Although somehow I can't see Mario Robau doing an arm lead when he demonstrates. In terms of the conceptual side of things, I'm not sure there's anyone more respected in WCS than Mario - he is very good at creating metaphors that "stick", even if, as here, they can be picked apart by the pedantic.
