 Anne Woolliams: Method of classical ballet.
Author: Woolliams, Anne & Akiko Yuzurihara Published: 2006 Anne Woolliams, who helped John Cranko build the Stuttgart Ballet into an internationally recognised dance company, was among the prominent ballet teachers of the twentieth century. This book, edited and co-written after Woolliams death by her pupil Akiko Yuzurihara, presents the theory and methodology of classical ballet that Woolliams had constructed through her whole career. It contains the main components of Woolliams' teaching materials, including detailed analyses of the basic steps of ballet, a teaching programme for a nine-year course indicating which steps should be learnt and mastered in each year, and examples of étude enchaînements. |
