On Pointe: Basic Pointe Work Beginner-Low Intermediate and a Look at the USA International Ballet Competition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well-presented info,diagrams and clear photos, however, I didn't learn anything new. I guess this would be a good book for the 12year old starting pointe work but it's not much use to an experienced teacher. If you need this book to begin teaching pointe work then you plainly do not have the expertise to be teaching it at all. I purchased this eager to learn of any recent developments in pointe training but was sadly disappointed.
