Introduction to Ballet
Introduction to Ballet is the first level of Janice Barringer’s Ballet Technique, created specifically for beginning dancers ages 5–6. This level develops early coordination, balance, posture, and musical awareness while introducing foundational ballet concepts in an age-appropriate and encouraging way.
Students learn to move with the music, explore natural parallel positions, and build safe alignment habits. Turnout is introduced slowly and thoughtfully so that young dancers gain strength and understanding without strain. Barre work is intentionally not included. Instead, Janice focuses on center-floor activities that nurture rhythm, spatial awareness, and early classical movement skills.
Bundle Includes:
- Disc 1: 36 original piano tracks composed for the Introduction to Ballet syllabus
- Disc 2: 36 piano tracks with clear vocal instruction by Janice Barringer
- Disc 3: Technique notes for teacher reference and standard-format audio files
