This completely new edition of the Royal Academy of Dancing's Step-By-Step Ballet Class features the very latest international examination syllabus. It presents a comprehensive selection of exercises taken from each of the examination grades, beginning with Pre-Primary and working up to Grade Five, the most advanced. Excellent sequential drawings and explanatory notes take the dancer through each exercise in turn, and topics such as dressing for dance and taking examinations are also included. An essential guide for anyone interested in learning ballet. Founded in 1920, the Royal Academy of Dancing is the largest training school in the world, teaching and examining in more than 50 countries. Its syllabus is the most widely accepted method of training in the world.

This title follows the updated International Examination Syllabus by illustrating a selection of exercises for pre-primary through grade five students taught at the Royal Academy of Dancing. Professional preparation is also discussed. Unfortunately, the illustrated instruction assumes a high level of knowledge and instructional assistance for comprehension, and access to the glossary is restricted by its awkward placement on page 14, between "How To Tie the Ribbons" and "Taking an Examination." Of greatest interest is the section that tracks a day in the life of two ballet students and provides eight short autobiographies of international dancers. For instructional purposes, the format is simply outmoded, as many dance guides are now on videocassette, including the Royal Academy's own 1991 videocassette, Grades Examinations Syllabus for Girls and Boys. For comprehensive dance collections only.
