"Pointe to Pointe" 2-CD Set This double CD set contains one disc for a beginning pointe class and one for an intermediate pointe class. What a great selection of familiar melodies played in Steven Mitchell’s rousing style. This music makes you want to get up and dance. There are a couple of extra tracks in the intermediate class CD and several are a little faster than the beginning class CD. All the selections start with a four count introduction and are repeated. This music can take the fear out of dancing on pointe. |
"Pointe to Pointe"
DVD Previews PREVIEW DISC 1 PREVIEW DISC 2 The contents for the DVD are the same as that of the CD, with the exception of an introduction for the 2-DVD set. "Pointe to
Pointe" is a resource for ballet teachers who are
training children from 8 to 10 years old and
introducing them to pointe work. Mignon Furman is
an expert of teaching ballet to children. Her
exercises are carefully chosen to help students
develop strength in their feet, ankles, and knees
with correct alignment in the body. The steps go
from working on two feet to working on one foot.
By introducing clean technique from the start of
pointe work, the chances of developing bad habits
are less. Ms. Furman believes that strength and
stability go hand in hand with developing
musicality and artistry.
The "Pointe to Pointe" DVD is divided into two levels of beginning pointe work: one for beginning pointe, the other for advanced beginning pointe. Each level is meant to be taught over a one year period. Both Barre and Centre work are represented in each level. Steven Mitchell provides the music for the "Pointe to Pointe" DVD on a double compact disc set by the same name. Ms. Furman is a monthly contributing writer to Dance Studio Life Magazine. |
