This handbook teaches how to work when nobody was watching, how to fail at something, make an adjustment and try again. It teaches discipline, patience, confidence, goal-setting and the understanding that the results we eventually see are usually created by work nobody else saw. Those skills followed you far beyond the studio.
Miss Natasha Jade, a former professional ballet dancer, national master teacher and dance educator with approximately 20 years of teaching experience. Began ballet at 14 years old and was dancing professionally by 16. Because she started so late, at-home training was an essential part of how she progressed so rapidly. She has taken the principles that helped shape her own training and years of experience educating dancers and turned them into a system young dancers can actually follow.
You need a system, a little discipline, and the willingness to keep showing up.
The work no one sees creates the dancer everyone sees.
