I have been lucky enough to teach hundreds of aspiring ballet students in the last few years and impart to them the secrets of prima ballerinas and world renowned professional dancers.
But... before I tell you how I can help improve your dancing, let me start off by telling you how I got here and why I am writing this.
It all started at my first ballet class.
I had no idea what to expect but like many others, I always wanted to be a ballerina, so I built up the courage and finally made it to a class. When I arrived I quickly realized everyone else had been dancing at least a couple of years already and here I was, the newbie, standing in the middle of the studio not even sure if I was wearing the correct ballet attire.
My mother had never danced and knew nothing about ballet, so I couldn't ask her for any advice. Like many other mothers, she really wanted to help but she just had no idea know what to do for me. You could only imagine the embarrassement and intimidation I felt as a teenager standing all by myself in the dance studio with all these experienced dancers and caring 110% about what everyone else thought of me.
The teacher must have seen how nervous I was. She came over and started asking me some questions about how I found the studio and what I was looking to get out of ballet class. Being a little old to be starting ballet I got the impression she didn't think I was going to be around very long.
She showed me a few of the basics so I could at least keep up with everyone else before they got into the advanced stuff. She then addressed the entire class and we started our warm-up at the barre.
"Let's Start With Pliés" Called Out The Teacher.
That I could handle. Although I had the gracefulness of an elephant I at least could bend my knees. I only just survived the rest of the barre by watching the others in front of me and trying to mimick them as best as I could.
Then came centre practice with temps lié and pirouettes. Apart from not having a clue what these movements were, I could hardly balance on one foot in a pirouette. The teacher was telling us to snatch our foot to retiré, spot our head, use our arms, relevé right up onto demi pointe and hold our centre tight. This was all a little overwhelming because I didn't know what half of the words she used meant and I was still just getting use to the plié.
Then came allegro and she called out things like battement jetté, changement, and pas de bourrée. I was totally overwhelmed with all this french stuff. My dream of becoming a beautiful ballerina was very quickly fading away.
When I got home after class I burst into tears and felt like giving up. It was just too hard. I could never see myself becoming a beautiful ballerina. I now understood why so many girls drop out of dancing.
Somehow I managed to pull myself together
I returned to ballet class the next week and asked the teacher "What can I buy to help me get better?". She looked at me with a saddened expression on her face and said, "There's nothing currently available that willreally help you improve. You just need to keep on coming to ballet class."
Unsatisfied with that response I nagged mum to buy me books so I could teach myself how to be the ballerina I always wanted to be. To my dissappointment, my teacher was right. I found a few good tips here and there but nothing really made the difference for me.
After not finding anything that could really help me I just kept going to class and I worked hard at improving. I progressed through the ballet syllabus achieving honours in my initial exams and constantly pushing myself to work harder.
I worked SO hard that I achieved the award "Top In Dance" for both my senior years at school.
I kept dancing for years after school and ended up becoming a teacher myself.
Then it happened...
One day one of my ballet students came up to me and asked "Is there anything I can buy to help me get better at ballet?" Those words hit me like a tonne of bricks.
This student was just like I once was. She desperately wanted to achieve her dream of becoming a ballerina and knew she needed more than her one class of ballet a week to get there. I realized that without any extra help, it took me over 4 years for things to actually start clicking; To be able to recite the french terms and understand what they mean and to be able to perform any ballet movement without having to think about it.
That night I got out a pen and paper and I started writing. I wrote down all the things I had learnt in my struggle to be the best I could be and all the things that I had learnt while teaching. I knew I had to write a guide that was 'to the point' and contained the inside info that students need to really help them grasp the concepts and understand the movements quickly.
I finished my first draft and I called it The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina. Nice and catchy.
I started sharing what I had written with fellow friends and associates but I didn't know what to expect. I had no idea what their reaction would be.
What actually happened I could have never expected.
One of them wrote back to me and said, "Anita, I know about 20 people who need this information. I'm sending them your details right now."
Another said, "Just about every aspiring ballet dancer I know desperately needs the advice in "The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina ". What can I do to help you spread the word?"
I started publishing my guide online and excited responses like these just kept coming in.
"I'm just getting back into ballet and I can't thank you enough" "I danced for many years when I was younger but I stopped and have regretted it ever since. I downloaded The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina a few days ago and I feel just as excited about dancing as I once was. I can't believe how much helpful information there is in this guide. I'm looking forward to picking up where I left off and this is just the thing I need." Betty Whittle, QLD |
"I wish I had this book when I first started out." "My compliments to the author on the book! It's written in a manner that makes it feel like she's there explaining everything to you in person which makes it so easy that even a beginner can understand. As a seasoned dancer, I wish I had this when I started dancing over 10 years ago. It would have helped me develop my technique much better and faster. I expect that when my daughter is old enough, she'll be reading it too!" Tanya Gould, CO |
"Even my eight year old daughter thanks you." "I bought this guide for my daughter who started ballet 6 months ago. Let me tell you she has improved so much from just following the pictures! She is now one of the best in her class and her teacher is amazed at her progress. It gives me great joy being able to read The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina with her and help her develop into a beautiful little ballerina. Thanks for writing this brilliant book. We both love it. Mary Dixon, LA |
What initially started as a written guide for my own students has now turned into an international selling frenzy with more copies being sold everyday to adult beginners, teachers, parents, and of course younger students.
After a few months I sent out an email to my new customers asking for their feedback on my guide and a photo of themselves. These are some of the responses I received in just a few days.
Hi Anita, I am 19 years old, from Melbourne Victoria. My mum purchased the Ballet Bible for me and WOW… It has changed my whole outlook on dance. The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina is outstanding and my favorite. Now when I am teaching the little ones, I have a better understanding of the technique and terminologies so I am teaching them correctly. So it is not only helping me to become stronger, but the next generation of dancers as well. Thankyou so much for writing such a wonderful tool. And I look forward to reading and learning more from your next issue. Kind regards Tamara Baird. Jen*Sue Dancers Melbourne. |
Dear Anita, My name is Rachel, I live in WA and I just wanted to say thank you for the 3 simple rules! It's been great for in home practice and breaking down difficult steps. Everything was well explained and watching steps be demonstrated was a big help. This year I passed my sub elementary ballet exam and got a very pleasing mark. I definitely think that the 3 simple rules gave me the leg up I needed. Thanks! |
Dear Anita, I just wanted to say a huge thank-you for the help and motivation that the ballet bible has given me - as someone who had taken a few years off from dancing it was at first very daunting trying to catch up, however, the ballet bible provided me with the much needed stepping stones to helping me regain my confidence and technique. Well done you! I can't wait to see the new edition! Much thanks & love, Zoe |
Hi Anita, The Ballet Bible has helped me regain new ways and strategies to teach my students the ballet technique. I used the ballet bible as a study tool to study for a test to get my certification as a Dance Masters of America teacher in Ballet. It helped me study and review the terminology and positions I needed for the written and verbal/presentation of the tests. Thank you for all the wonderful time and dedication you have put forth into making this wonderful tool for dancers and teachers like myself. Jessica Roesener-Parkland, Florida |
Now It's Your Turn To Experience a Huge Improvement In Your Ballet Technique!
Obviously ballet is not something you can learn overnight and be a superstar at by morning. Ballet takes years to master and one of the best ways to improve is by having your own dance teacher. But what would you say if I could help you accelerate your skill level to where you never thought possible?
Just have another read of those testimonials. I got more and more of these every week. I have hundreds on file from teachers, parents, new students, and advanced students of different ages and nationalities. I am serious when I say "I really do want to help you, and I know I have the right information you need to start seeing a massive improvement in your dancing." Even if I can help you in just one small area that you're lacking. That alone is worth it.
If You're Ready To Take A Stand And Achieve Some Serious Improvement In Your Dancing, Keep Reading!
Many dance teachers across the country are recommending this package to their students as required reading because they are undoubtedly noticing the difference in the improvement of those following this advice.
Introducing: The Ballet Bible - The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina
This ebook has but a single, ultimate goal: To be so clear on exactly how to improve your ballet technique that you will be wondering how on earth you could have gotten so far without The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina.
I will have failed if I only do what other guides do. They show you WHAT to do . I take you by the hand and coach you on exactly HOW to do it.
You will be amazed at this books ability to teach you how to dance with grace, precision, and poise. It's as if I am standing next to you guiding you through every movement and gesture.
In this guide I not only show you how to do a movement or gesture correctly,but I also show you how most dancers do it incorrectly, and I tell you WHY. No other book I have ever read shows you this. It is a fundamental aspect to learning. If I show you how NOT to do a movement you will have a better understanding of what compromises the correct form. You will automatically see improvement in your dancing.
Here's some example diagrams taken from The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina which show incorrect technique:
Incorrect Posture (taken from page 28)
|
|
Can you see the faults in these pictures?
Have You Seen Any Other Guide That Bothers To Show You This?
This is so valuable. There are very few resources that help you visualize and understand common mistakes. On page 28 I tell you exactly what's wrong in these examples and I show you exactly how to correctthem in a way that means you will never stand with incorrect posture again.
You May Not Think That There Is Anything Crucially Wrong With The Technique In These Pictures. But In The Ballet World, It's The Difference Between A Good Dancer And a Great Dancer. It's The Difference An Examiner Will See In Your CSTD, RAD, Cechetti etc. Gradings. It's The Difference A Ballet Company Will See When You Audition.
This is just one example. I have dozens more to help you quickly get over the hurdles most dancers never even realize they need to get over.You would be surprised at the number of students who learn bad habits and keep them for life stunting any possibility of them actually progressing to a professional level. In The Ballet Bible - The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina I outline exactly what you need to know to start off on the right foot.
Here is an example of an incorrect sequence movement that so many dancers do.
Incorrect Developpé (taken from page 35)
This is an example of an action that is fundamental to all dance styles, not just ballet. If you learn this movement incorrectly you will end up with sloppy technique that transfers into your other movements and huge, ugly thighs in the long run to show for it.
Wrong!
In The Ballet Bible - The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina I unveil the correct methods to many sequence movements. I take you step-by-step through each detail so that you know everything there is to know.
The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina offers you more than 200 pages of practical, concrete how-to methods with complete descriptions and explanations founded on solid dancing theory.
Would it benefit you to know how to correctly execute movements with precision and speed?
Could this kind of information help you and your dancing?
How much time and effort would it save if you knew how to do things right the first time?
Here is a small list of some of the things you can expect from The Ballet Bible - The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina.

Check out what others have been saying about The Ballet Bible - The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina.
Hi Anita: My name is Linda Mings and I live in Ontario, Canada. I am an adult ballet student who started ballet at the age of 41 and have been taking it for 2 years recreationally. My teacher is wonderful but once a week classes were not allowing me to progress and I often forgot how to do the steps correctly once leaving the class. The Ballet Bible has been a great help in explaining and demonstrating ballet in an easily understandable manner. I am very glad to have purchased the Ballet Bible and highly recommend it. Thanks. |
Dear Anita, The Ballet Bible Package has been a godsend. I invested in this just before I started classes. I had my first lesson this week and they thought I had been dancing for years. They were so surprised when I said I had never taken classes before. This course is packed with so much helpful information, and it's so practical. I know more about ballet than the girls that have been dancing for over 3 years! Thanks heaps Natasha Simmons, BO |
This is Fantastic! I'm a ballet teacher who is always on the lookout for good information to recommend to my students and this is such a great resource for my students to have that I am constantly advising them to get it. It's also great for the parents to have as well as it helps them understand why we do certain activities. Stacey Lawson |
Anita, Your guide has been an awesome reference to me and a constant reminder... more of a summation of what I've learnt at dancing. It has all the highlights and rules and more importantly, the preperation of a certain position with pictures! Usually it can be quite hard to visualise especially if you're not big on the ballet jargon. This book has certainly given me practical advice and the abillity to succesfully make the most of every ballet class. PS: The stretching section is awesome too, I can just go through it page by page and do the exact right stretches FOR DANCERS! Not stretches for people who need stretching in general...fantastic! Thanks heaps :) Kathleen Hoyos |
Dear Anita! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in such a brilliant way. Even though I am not into ballet per se (I do ballroom dancing), I love the Ballet Bible because it provides so much knowledge and is great help for me in choosing what I should spend my scarce time on when practicing alone. I know I should have developed my technique a long time ago, but the step just became bigger and bigger with time. When I discovered The Ballet Bible it became so much easier to take the step, and start spending quality time fixing and developing my own skills in dancing. Thank you! I highly recommend The Ballet Bible Package. It provides access to the amazing techniques of ballet, and it is understandable, with illustrations and explanations of that difficult vocabulary. Erik Roland Tromsø, Norway |
It is wonderful to know that someone has finally put together such a wonderful compilaton of practical information for dancers. I am a professional performer, sports Trainer and Dance Teacher. My Love for dancing started over 25 years ago and lead to many great things. The Complete Ballet Bible Package is a must for any one with a passion for perfection in Dance. I recommend this package to all my students, and would recommend it to everone in all levels of dance. Thank you Anita! Tina Sparks Gold Coast, Australia |
My name is Renny NG. I live in Sydney, NSW. I started dancing when I was around 5 years old. However, I stop joining dance lesson when I was in year 10. When I stop my dancing lesson, I still keep on practicing by my own. I also dance in the church since I was in year 6 until now. Since 2 years ago, I have been asked to teach dancing in church. I was struggling a lot because I have forgotten some of ballet terms and it's very hard to explain the right way to dance to people since I have never taught dance before hand. The ballet bible package helps me to explain the movements and terms to people who I teach. It also improve my skill because I can remember things that I have forgotten. Thanks, Renny NG |
I am 58 years old and started ballet, tap and jazz 4 years ago as a work out. The adult group consists of 6 women in their teens, two in their 20's, two in their 30's, one in her 40's, and me in my 50's. We all loved the dance class so much that we participated in the recital. I purchased your book this summer and it really helped me to polish my ballet moves. I hope other older women will have the courage to try dance. You are never to old to try something new! I feel so much better doing ballet. You use muscles that you don't normally use in other activities. Keep up the good work. Cathy Reel, Iowa |
I have been doing ballet for a few years now and I found the Ballet Bible to be a godsend especially around exam times when you just need to refresh your self with all the terms. My mum got me The 3 Simple Rules of a Prima Ballerina and it has helped me develop my technique much better and faster. I would recommend Ballet Bible to any one that is doing Ballet. Jess |
I am an adult beginner who likes to take class seriously and will study, read and practice on my own time. Alot of the information I read in books did not offer diagrams and clear directions on basic and more advanced positions, hence, too confusing to follow. It was important to me that if I am going to practice at home, that I am doing it correctly as to not learn bad habits or wrong moves. What I really like and find very helpful are the pictures that are large/close-up showing the "correct" and "incorrect" positions and how clear and simple the instructions are to follow. It gives me the confidence I am learning correctly. My teacher cannot believe how much I improved and progressed since last year. This is a must for any beginner or for those who want a "refresher." Elaine New York, USA |
From a teachers point of view this is a fantastic resource. I have lent it to some of my students for inspiration, particularly the beginner students. It has really assisted with developing technique and explaining the terms of ballet. I look forward to sharing it with my daughter when she commences dancing. Congrats on a great book! Many Thanks Prue Haithwaite, NSW |
I was very happy when I downloaded the Ballet Bible. I took ballet classes when I was younger then stopped when I had children. I had forgotten so much, but this book has it all in it. I love it. This is just what I needed to start dancing again. Everyone could benefit from this book, whether you've danced before or not. Thank you! Misty from TX |
I'm Lynn and I'm 19 years old, and i'm now taking ballet classes for beginners and the ballet bible is really helpful for me, because it gives me more confidence in my self. Because it's written in such a friendly way, it encourages me , not to give up. It's like taking ballet class at home but without having to worry about everyone else going to fast for me. Thank you, so much. |
