This beginner ballet class
features two girls and a boy performing a simple
ballet class for 8 to 10 year olds. The music in the
class is from the CD ‘Between Tots & Teens’ by
Steven Mitchell. There is no main menu of chapters
but there are 32 different chapters that are
outlined on the jacket. Several exercises are
devoted to preparing a student for Pirouettes as
well as Developpe and jumps. The 28 different
exercises are a perfect starting place for any
beginning ballet dancer. The simple setting of a
single barre with three dancers is very much like
being in a real ballet class. This DVD contains
explanations and demonstrations of many different
steps conducted by Mignon Furman who is from the
Royal Ballet in London,
England
and is director of the American
Academy of
Ballet in New
York City.
