Content

"This book offers an inside view of ballet as the art form we see on stages today, how expressive movement is initiated and controlled, and the importance of embedding creativity and expressivity within ballet technique from the dancer's first lesson to their final performance. Janet Karin O.A.M. promotes ballet as a holistic art form resulting from the integration of mind, brain and body, and describes the motor control factors that can enhance or interfere with achievement. Throughout, professional dancers' personal experiences illuminate the text, from the euphoria of 'flow' to the search for creativity and harmony; from the debilitating effects of anxiety, trauma and pain to the reward of artistic autonomy. Teaching is presented from a philosophical viewpoint, enriching and extending the child's innate movement skills and expressive power. Practical yet reflective, this is an essential guide for dancers as well as dance educators and students"--
