The complete 8-year curriculum of Lenningrad's famed Vaganova Choreographic School, which trained Nureyev, Baryshnikov and Markova, including over 100 photographs. A volume which no teacher, scholar or student of the dance can afford to miss.

Summary: The bible for teaching from beginners to advanced dancers.
Comment: I've taught ballet for nearly 30 years to all kinds of students and the one thing that I'm always attempting to do is to distill my teaching methods to create the best dancers possible - in other words carry on the best and purest tradition of training I can. This book contains this kind of information. I consider it the Holy-Grail of teaching ballet. Your serious students will love it and you will gain and enormous amount of theory and understanding of ballet by incorporating it into your teaching. If you only have one book on teaching, this is the book.

Summary: Excellent resource
Comment: If you are a ballet teacher, and aren't able to take master classes very often, this is a good book for you. The lessons sparked new choreography for me, and provided a different perspective to age/skill set; however, the lessons were also developed by a man whose job was to train ballet students to be professionals (age/skill set obviously varies when kids are studying ballet recreationally or for the joy of learning ballet). This book provides an opportunity to expand an adagio, petite allegro, or barre work.

Summary: Very Good Information
Comment: I studied the Vaganova Method at ABT as a child and young adult. Now that I am teaching I like to use the book as a guideline, review and brush up on things I may be overlooking. When you are away from the classroom as an adult (or an older adult) it is necessary to keep trying to learn from others or resources. I highly recommend this book.
