Welcome to Ballet School by Ashley Bouder
There's no admissions policy to our Ballet School. Whether you are already learning ballet, or thinking about starting, this class is for you. Learn your plies, first positions, jetes, pirouettes and grand battements.
But what happens if you fall? How do you stretch and look after your body? How do you get ready for class? No worries - it's all answered in this book from professional ballerina Ashley Bouder.
Then go on to learn the characters and interpretations of Sleeping Beauty - taught in an inclusive way so anyone can dance the parts they want to. A helpful glossary at the back provides a review of ballet terms.
Tutus are optional.
