Question:

I am 20 and I want to learn ballet. What are some suggestions?I will be very dedicated to learning.?

I took it for a few years as a child and I took simple ballet for 2 years in highschool, now I want to further it. However I am currently stationed overseas so it will be hard to attend a class. Are there any videos anyone would recommend?

I suggest picking up a book called "The Dancer's Companion" by Eliza Minden. It's a great resource for adult beginner dancers.

Since you won't be able to attend class it will be more difficult to learn ballet since you will need someone to correct your technique.

The BEST videos for ballet out there are by Finis Jhung. They're a little expensive, but worth it.

If you have any specific questions - I'll be more than happy to answer them for you, just message me. Start out with that book though, it'll give you a strong understanding.

Good Luck
