Studying ballet as a performing art

Beginning Ballet and the accompanying web resource introduce students to the study of ballet as a performing art and provide instructional support in learning foundational ballet technique.

The book features more than 80 photographs and concise descriptions covering basic foot and arm positions, barre exercises and centre combinations.

It introduces students to the structure of a ballet class, including expectations, etiquette and attire. Students also learn how to prepare for class, maintain proper nutrition and hydration, and avoid injury.
