Academy Method: Body Mechanics 2-Week Course

The two-week Body Mechanics intensive training program is an inntroduction to the International Teacher Certification Program offered by The Margot Fonteyn Academy of Ballet. This book contains the basic principles of human movement, and 48 trainning exercises taken from classical ballet's 460-year history. These exercises are not the ones done in daily class by ballet dancers, but are selected from the 65 exercises professional dancers use outside of their ballet training to keep their bodies fit, strong, flexible and in perfect condition.

Trainees who take the 2-week course can elect to become certificate candidates, and with completion of this traininng will have achieved 12 course credit hours toward their certification and 6 hours of credited observation.
