- Not for beginners!
I am taking a beginning ballet class and I thought this dvd would help me practice during the week, I was wrong.Most of the exercises are only shown on one side(so you have to pause to practice the other leg) and they go very fast.I would not suggest buying this if you are a beginner and need real instruction, or are just trying to practice.

- Good Product
The Product was bought for my daughter who is a beginner ballet dancer. She enjoyed the lessons but the tape only held her interest enough to watch and not participate. She rather just work with hands on and use this maybe as something she can refer to later so she does not forget these basics while in other dance classe. (Hip hop, tap, and jazz) So much to remember.
