Ballet 101 – A Beginner's Class
Description
Do you have the desire to begin Ballet but don’t have the
time to take a formal class? Is there something that makes you feel
uncomfortable attending a traditional class? Do you just need a refresher
course or a practice guide because you have done this before but can’t
remember anything? Maybe, your child expresses an interest in the arts, but
your wallet doesn’t. Even if you sign your child up, you want them to be
exposed to and prepared for the experience. These are the reasons why we made
“Ballet 201, Beyond the Basics,” and its prerequisite, “Ballet 101, A
Beginner’s Class.” —————- This video series was not produced in HD,
but classical Ballet instruction is not affected by the passage of time or
changes in choreography. Techniques still include flowing, formalized
movements and positions of the arms, feet, and body designed to enable the
dancer to move with the greatest possible agility, control, speed, lightness,
and grace. —————- If you are totally new to Ballet, you will need to
begin with “Ballet 101.” Under the direction of an instructor and her two
young protégés, “Ballet 101” will introduce the barre exercises to you in a
simple format reserved for beginners. The class is presented with soft piano
accompaniment while the seasoned instructor counts out the beats for you to
move together. The dance at the end of the class is described, marked, and
then performed with you to a classical music piece. Young children should be
supervised by an adult so as not to acquire any bad dance habits. Should you
have any questions about our classes prior to purchasing, please feel free to
contact the Russ Invision producers directly. From the Contributor From the
