DVD Reviews of Baby Ballet

DVD Review: Too advanced for little girls
Summary: 1 Stars

I was looking for a DVD that would give more detailed instruction. In watching this with my almost 3 year old, I had trouble keeping up. It moved too fast from one move to the next. It assumed you had prior instruction. I was looking for something with more instruction, more fun and less assumptions & less boring. My 3 year old walked away to play in her kitchen. Not worth the purchase unless there is prior knowledge.

DVD Review: Holds my 2 year old's attention!
Summary: 5 Stars

My daughter has been interested in taking ballet since she could walk. She has to be three to dance here in town so I was looking for a video she could do at home.

These steps are good simple steps for little girls who are looking to see what ballet is all about. The instructor even has the girls doing some stretches on the floor which is good to develop their flexibility - a must for any dancer! She also has an advanced student (teenager) demonstrating and following along with the girls. I feel it makes my daughter want to do well so she can be just like her.

Everyday when my daughter comes home from daycare she dresses herself up and pops this ballet DVD in. She enjoys seeing the other little girls dancing and feels a part of the class. She is learning a lot and can do the exercises pretty well. She will be three by the end of this month and is well prepared to start dancing at the local studio. This video is a good value for your money. Enjoy!

DVD Review: Baby Ballet Blah
Summary: 2 Stars

I bought this item for my 3 year old who loves to dance like a ballerina. I thought she would take to this DVD and learn the "real" moves. I got her dressed up and ready for her first viewing and she was quickly bored with it. The quality of the video is poor and uninteresting. The lessons are very very slow moving and it was hard to keep her interested in the rest of the DVD. I would recommend "Barbi and the 12 Dancing Princesses" over this for little girls who want to dance. My 3 year old learned all of her great turns and steps from them!

DVD Review: Good video for 2.5 yr old
Summary: 4 Stars

My 2.5 year old daugher enjoyed this video for the most part. She's just starting to show an interest in dance and I wanted to test her out with a video. At the beginning they were explaining how to warm up. This was slow for her and she lost interest quickly. She simply wanted to start dancing and standing at a 'bar' doing warm ups was not her idea of a good time. Once the dancers on the video got moving, we were good to go. She danced and danced and was thrilled. She especially enjoyed the other little dancers in their outfits.

DVD Review: Boring Ballet
Summary: 1 Stars

My 3-year-old is ballet crazy, but this DVD completely bored her. She left after about 5 minutes. It is so poorly produced, it looks like a bad home video - bad lighting, really boring message, etc. It moves very slowly, not much action or pacing, so it just bores the kids. Sadly, there are not a lot of other options out there, but this is not worth your money.

Description of Baby Ballet

A wonderful introduction for children to the world of ballet, especially designed for ages four through six. It contains all the aspects of a formal ballet class including a barre warm-up, stretches, center practive and across the floor combinations. All of the movements are explained step-by-step, followed by a performance of the steps by renowned dance teacher Rosemary Boross and her beginning pre-school students.

Budding ballerinas ages 4 to 6 receive a thorough introduction to ballet at the tutelage of "Miss Rosemary" Boross in this 36-minute video. The program features Rosemary Boross, a student helper, and a small class of preschool age dancers as they explore the basics of warming up at the barre, stretching, center work, dancing across the floor, and rev?r?nce. Miss Rosemary first describes and demonstrates steps like pli?, tendu, sut?, chass?, and grande jet?, then leads her class through each step to the accompaniment of original piano music by Bruce Stephen Foster. Because the program covers a large variety of steps and progresses fairly quickly, it is most effective when used in conjunction with enrollment in an introductory ballet class. Alternately, young dancers may want to view the video in short segments, then follow with ample practice time to ensure the correct execution of each individual step. --Tami Horiuchi
