Download or read book Being a Ballerina written by Gavin Larsen and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist, the Arts Club of Washington Marfield Prize A look inside a dancer’s world Inspiring, revealing, and deeply relatable, Being a Ballerina is a firsthand look at the realities of life as a professional ballet dancer. Through episodes from her own career, Gavin Larsen describes the forces that drive a person to study dance; the daily balance that dancers navigate between hardship and joy; and the dancer’s continual quest to discover who they are as a person and as an artist. Starting with her arrival as a young beginner at a class too advanced for her, Larsen tells how the embarrassing mistake ended up helping her learn quickly and advance rapidly. In other stories of her early teachers, training, and auditions, she explains how she gradually came to understand and achieve what she and her body were capable of. Larsen then re-creates scenes from her experiences in dance companies, from unglamorous roles to exhilarating performances. Working as a ballerina was shocking and scary at first, she says, recalling unexpected injuries, leaps of faith, and her constant struggle to operate at the level she wanted—but full of enormously rewarding moments. Larsen also reflects candidly on her difficult decision to retire at age 35. An ideal read for aspiring dancers, Larsen’s memoir will also delight experienced dance professionals and fascinate anyone who wonders what it takes to live a life dedicated to the perfection of the art form.

Download or read book Becky written by Shannon E. Lancaster and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-10 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becky is like so many little girls who want to dance but aren t sure what it really is about. After teaching little girls like her for over 20 years, I thought it would help them to have someone to relate to. Often even parents don t realize there is hard work involved. My hope is that the Becky series gives children, dance teachers, and parents, a fun and entertaining look into what really goes on, or should go on in a dance class, as well as in the mind of a young girl thinking about being a dancer or just taking dance classes. Becky and her experiences will give young dancers motivation and encouragement to not give up and keep working to make their dreams come true. Seeing pictures of beautiful ballerinas may inspire, but it doesn t help them understand what it will take to become like the ballerinas in the pictures. Becky will be their guide. She can help them overcome the fear of taking class, or performing, she can encourage them to practice, (which is vital to growth) and Becky can also inspire young teachers in understanding how their new dancers feel and give them ideas for fun classes. Becky can also help parents with the excitement and the road that dance classes will take them down. The stories are written in hopes that some children will be able to read them alone, but they will make great stories for a parent to read to their child. As they follow Becky and her dance experiences, it will help them understand what Becky is feeling, expected to do, and what their role is in her dancing."
