VHS Movie Reviews of Pointe By Point
Movie Review: A "Must Have" Video For All Ballet Teachers And Ambitious Students.
Summary: 5 Stars
This video covers most of the basics of beginning pointe instruction for barre and center practice. The exercises are explained very completely and accurately by Barbara Fewster of the Royal Ballet School and beautifully demonstrated by one of her students. Virtually every type of introductory pointe exercise is shown(of course, the variations are endless, so the selection is not exhaustive!). All three of the methods of reaching pointe are shown: pique, releve, and saute to pointe. Much of what is covered here also carries over to intermediate and advanced work. What is left out? Plies on pointe, sautes on pointe(very much an intermediate-advanced step), and pirouettes on pointe, to mention a few. If this video is combined with some good books on the subject of pointe technique(see my reviews of "Balanchine Technique" and "The Art of Teaching Ballet", both excellent sources of advanced pointe technique), you would have the topic pretty well covered. This video is highly recommended for ballet teachers that are just starting to teach pointe technique and need some guidance(this category often includes male ballet teachers), as well as the serious student starting pointe. Some of the combinations are not as long as some dancers are used to, but this is actually recommended for beginning pointe students, so as not to cause injury, until they build up the required srength and stamina for longer sequences. How wonderful it would be if this came out on dvd! For now, don't pass this up on vhs.
