Paperback. Zustand: Good. Prima Princessa invites budding ballerinas to explore the wonderful world of ballet!Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;Is there any more enticing figure than the ballerina? Dressed in a fluffy tutu, wearing her pink pointe shoes, and dancing so gracefully, sheP#39;s what every little girl longs to be. But what does it take to make that fantasy come true? Thanks to the charming, illustrated Prima Princessa, would-be ballerinas will enjoy a privileged peek into the dancerP#39;s world.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;The fairy-like Princessa ushers readers into New York CityP#39;s famous School of American Ballet (SAB) in Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts--the finest dance academy in the U.S. and the starting point for most of the New York City BalletP#39;s ballerinas. Through stunning photography, theyP#39;ll enter SABP#39;s classrooms and get an intimate look at how elite dancers train. The visit begins in a pre-ballet class, moves to SABP#39;s ChildrenP#39;s Ballet Division (11-year-olds), and finally arrives at the near-professional Advanced Ballet classes (16-year-olds). Along the way, newcomers to ballet will learn about the schoolP#39;s dress code; see close-up images of young students demonstrating all the basic positions; and find out what goes into performing each step. Just like a real dance class, the book opens with a barre--where dancers warm up--and then shifts to the center, where ballerinas can show off their balance, perform combinations, and eventually practice partnering. (ThereP#39;s also a glimpse at boyP#39;s class, too!) The on-the-page performance is absolutely inspiring, with every dancer in perfect, elegant form: all the photos and instructions have been checked by the teachers at SAB for accuracy. And most exciting of all is watching a girl get ready to go on stage for a dress rehearsal, applying her makeup, straightening her costume, and making sure every hair is in place.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;ItP#39;s the stuff of which dreams are made, and the finest childrenP#39;s introduction to ballet ever published.…
