Helping Beginners Learn Ballet

The CD-ROM’s user-friendly format allows you to navigate through the barre and center exercises of a beginning ballet class in two ways: in the order in which the exercises are learned or alphabetically. This unique feature allows you to easily review each exercise as many times as necessary to learn the technique and terminology. For each exercise, step, position, and/or pose, a simple point and click allows you to do any of the following: View a visual or video performance; See the name of an exercise or step, and its spelling in the French language; Hear the pronunciation of the exercise or step in French and listen as the text is read to you; Read the English translation and description for executing the exercise or step; Use hot links to access information about key terms; Study technical points on correct execution of beginning classical ballet; Administer self-testing on the ballet techniques and principles and get instant feedback. For instructors, teaching a beginning ballet class can be a challenge. Even dancers who have studied ballet for many years may be intimidated by the idea of teaching ballet technique. Interactive Beginning Ballet is a flexible teaching tool that provides you with a visual model of the beginning steps, exercises, and principles typically taught in educational settings. This integrated approach to learning is consistent with the National Standards in Arts Education and the goals of the National Standards for Technology in Teaching and Learning.
