Book Review: Ballet for Dummies
Summary: 4 Stars
The pictures really help - my 4-year-old is taking Ballet and I'm totally clueless on how to help her. This book was a good way to go.Book Review: Great book for a nebie to ballet
Summary: 5 Stars
I have just recently started to watch ballet, so I thought I would pick up a book so I understand it better. This book does that with vigour and great explanation. From the moves to the history and everything else you would need to get started in ballet or just appreciate it more like me.
Book Review: Great for beginners!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I like this book.This book is what I was looking for.It covers all basics with a very simple description and you don`t have to dig for the further explanation somwhere else.Author do not assume that every person in the world knows at least 1% of ballet terminology.
Thanks a lot for this book!This is what I was looking for
Book Review: Pretty good book
Summary: 4 Stars
I found this book pretty good and should be pretty handy for beginners to ballet.
Not however that quite a few web links mentioned in the book do not exist, but I imagine one could search out alternative websites on one's own
Book Review: The perfect introduction I have been looking for.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is absolutely the perfect book for someone wanting to learn (or learn about) ballet. I have seen the other ballet books out there. Most of them are either too simplistic (showing pictures of various pretty moves without telling you how to do them) or too abstract. This book strikes the ideal balance. It is practical and thorough. It doesn't assume any prior experience in ballet, but goes from square 1 to a quite advanced level. It takes you through the same logical sequence of moves that all dancers learn. It offers tons of tips and inside information that only ballet dancers know. It's very well written and easy to read. The expert authors are knowledgeable, patient, and VERY FUNNY. (A laugh on every page -- I didn't expect that added bonus.). And it has what seems like about a million beautiful photographs illustrating each move in great detail. I can't say enough great things about this book. It's the book I've been waiting for. Buy it!
