Question
Hi,
I am in the process of trying to find a ballet C.D. with vocal instructions to teach a small class of friends to improve their health and I was wondering if you could recommend any. I haven't been able to find any on the net.
Thanks so much for your help.

Answer
Hi Faun, I don't know of any. Personally, I would recommend Classical Stretch. (DVD) There is one on http://www.theballetstore.com It is very balletic, coached well, and I think almost anyone would love it. Definitely good for general exercise and health.

If I find any CD's like you want, I'll let you know.

All the best, Dianne

I can answer questions about ballet positions, ballet movements and ballet technique, pointe shoes and pre pointe exercise, mens training, ballet diet, general health issues related to dance, artistry, performance, modern dance, rehabilitation from injuries, and teaching ballet. I have taught ballet, choreographed, produced and directed dance companies. For any answers related to health questions I will offer my experience, and give references to information, but I also automatically include "see a professional".
