Download or read book Let s Talk About Fifth written by Deborah Engerman and published by . This book was released on 2023-08-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let's Talk About Fifth provides the tools to execute and teach both the craft and the artistry of classical ballet. Professional dance training requires knowledge, passion, communication, and a giving spirit. Even with years of accumulated dedication and expertise, gaps occur between understanding, performing, and teaching ballet. Teaching ballet is not the same as studying or performing ballet. There are seasoned, renowned ballerinas in the world who make terrible teachers. And there are fabulous ballet teachers who would never be accepted into a professional ballet company. Each profession demands its own abilities and expertise. Some people will excel in both areas; however, assuming someone has talent in both is incorrect. Ballet teachers need to understand the logistics of classical technique, break that technique down into steps students can follow, and communicate clearly what they expect. Let's Talk About Fifth shares valuable information to help ballet and all dance teachers with all these educational aspects. Technique is one of the foundations of classical ballet and most other dance forms. Let's Talk About Fifth addresses the technical and artistic concepts fundamental to the life of a dancer, which should be covered in the ballet classroom. The following elements are defined and described: center alignment, weight distribution upon the feet on and off pointe, supporting-side control, turnout, use of the knees and lower legs, pointing of the feet, how to use the feet from the floor, extensions, flexibility, coordination, and musicality and artistry. This book offers valuable methods to strengthen and teach classical dance. Teachers will discover new approaches that are both practical and inspiring, along with concepts, strategies, and practices that will help them create a productive, energetic, and focused classroom. With the inclusion of conditioning and class exercises, along with over 100 photographs, teachers and dancers alike will come away equipped to develop the essential skills inherent to ballet technique.
Download or read book The Finis Jhung Ballet Technique written by Finis Jhung and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-26 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KIRKUS REVIEWS excerpted for book /website Discover or rediscover the essentials of good ballet technique in this comprehensive, accessible book. Ballet has a reputation as a beautiful but intimidating art form, and those who lack natural flexibility or a typical dancer s body may feel unwelcome in a ballet studio. In his first book, former professional dancer and longtime instructor Jhung dispels that notion, reminding students and teachers of the pure joy that dance can bring while offering clear guidance on how to move with grace and confidence and avoid injury. He talks candidly about his own struggles with demanding classical technique and explains how he eventually learned to work with his body, rather than against it, when dancing. Jhung doesn t demand perfect turnout or high battements from his students; instead, he emphasizes proper posture and alignment, which he convincingly argues are the real foundation of good dance. With that in mind, he moves through a series of exercises, from simple stretches and basic barre work to more advanced center work involving turns and jumps. Lessons begin with an outline of the specific movements and are followed by a detailed analysis of each exercise so that readers will understand why it s essential to perfect simple steps before moving on to more complex choreography. These initial lessons are clearly explained and are easy to follow even for those with no prior ballet training. Throughout, Jhung maintains his encouraging, supportive tone while also discouraging the sloppiness and overreach that leads to strained, inelegant movement valuable lessons for beginners and advanced students alike. A fresh, friendly guide that demystifies classical ballet while providing clear guidance on how to be a better dancer."
