When I was growing up, I wasn’t exposed to much professional dancing. Then I went to music school. Any music school worth its salt will have a ballet corps. When I was doing my undergrad work, I made friends with several of the ballerinas studying there as well. I started going to see their performances and fell in love with ballet and modern dance. To this day, I always pick up the latest ballet books as they come out. These are the ones I think you should read too.
