There could not
be a finer tribute to David Howard’s career
and teaching of Ballet than this exquisite
video. Shot with great care and attention to
detail, no corners were cut in the making of
the 76 minute DVD. The class starts with
David’s trade mark warm-up exercises which
he did before every class. This is followed
by four professional dancers performing
every exercise of a complete Barre and
Center including turns and jumps along with
several pointe exercises. The video ends
with an in depth discussion about how to fit
and use the pointe shoe by Mary Carpenter
one of David’s star pupils. If you ever took
class with David Howard either at the
numerous conventions and workshops he
appeared at or in his very successful studio
in NYC, this video will take you back to a
magical unique time. If it is your first
time to experience David’s excellence in
teaching, this class will give you a better
understanding of Ballet. Bravo David we miss
you!
