5.0 out of 5 stars great Vaganova Class, February 24, 2007

By	Silly Sally "Sally" (Boulder, CO United States) - See all my reviews

I loved this class. I speak Russian and I loved hearing the Russian teacher give corrections(the corrections are translated into English). I also studied with a Vaganova teacher for a number of years and the exercises in this dvd are right out of the Vaganova system. There are tons of jump combinations, and there is variety of pointe exercises at the end of class. This is a great value for the price. At is a great teacher training dvd as well as a do-along class for home.
