The Ballet Book The Young Performer's Guide to Classical Dance by National Ballet School of Canada, published by Firefly Books in 1999.
Produced in conjunction with Canada's world-famous National Ballet School, The Ballet Book is a definitive instructional resource for youth and their parents who are beginning to explore the possibilities and delights of ballet. The book illustrates in meticulous detail -- and through more than 100 photographs - every position, step and pose involved in barre work, pointe work, alignment, classical ballet poses, attitudes, allegros, batteries, pirouettes and arabesques.
A lovely addition to your coffee table or bookshelf, and a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves art and design.
