Budding ballerinas ages 4 to 6 receive a thorough introduction to ballet at the tutelage of 'Miss Rosemary' Boross in Baby Ballet. The program features Rosemary Boross, a student helper, and a small class of preschool age dancers as they explore the basics of warming up at the barre, stretching, center work, dancing across the floor, and revérénce. Miss Rosemary first describes and demonstrates steps like plié, tendu, suté, chassé, and grande jeté, then leads her class through each step to the accompaniment of original piano music by Bruce Stephen Foster. Because the program covers a large variety of steps and progresses fairly quickly, it is most effective when used in conjunction with enrollment in an introductory ballet class. Alternately, young dancers may want to view the video in short segments, then follow with ample practice time to ensure the correct execution of each individual step.
In Tot Tap, Miss Rosemary Boross presents an authentic first-year tap class specifically geared toward children ages 4 to 6. Miss Rosemary covers a variety of basic tap steps like shuffle, dig, heel drops, toe taps, heel taps, and cramp rolls. She carefully details and demonstrates each tap step, then incorporates the steps into simple dances rehearsed by preschool-age, beginning tap students and accompanied by original, rhythmic music by Bruce Stephen Foster. This informative, 30-minute video can be used alone or in conjunction with enrollment in a beginning tap class.
Junior Jazz is an introductory jazz dance lesson aimed specifically at children ages 4 to 6.Teacher Rosemary Boross covers four styles of dance within this 'jazz' presentation: hip hop, musical theatre, rock, and swing.After demonstrating and explaining the individual steps within a combination, Miss Rosemary invites young viewers to dance along with her, two young adult helpers, and a small class of preschool children.Each dance combination has an animal theme like 'Hippo Hop' and 'Jungle Monkey Swing' and is set to fun original music composed by Bruce Stephen Foster and Brian Sepel with lyrics by Boross. --Tami Horiuchi

Rating:  - A bit too fast for beginners?
My sister-in-law, a high schooler who has taken a few years of dance classes at a local dance studio, noted that the instructor in this video seems to move a bit too quickly for beginning dancers. My 4-year-old daughter does enjoy the video and tries to follow along, but she definitely is having a hard time picking up most of the moves. It's a hard balance to strike, though, because you want to go slow enough for beginners, yet you also want it to be advanced enough that there's the opportunity for ... Read More
Rating:  - Very Satisfied Customer !
I am amazed that anyone gave this instructional DVD anything less than 5 stars. It teaches them so much for the amount of money I spent. I purchased 2 of these DVDs for my 4 granddaughters, aged 2,4,5, and 7. I also bought them each complete ballet outfits. Their reactions were as follows. The 7 year old liked the ballet part the best, and was very interested, the 5 year old is a little shy, and did'nt have much of a reaction at first, but with some encouragement from her parents and sister, Im sure ...

Rating: - Great intro to dancing!
I recently purchased this for my daughters, ages six and a half and two and a half.My oldest loves it.We've done it together a couple of times and she has done it on her own a couple of times.My youngest likes to twirl around and imitate her sister, so it even holds her interest for a few minutes.If you're looking for a substitute for dance lessons, this won't fit the bill.However, if you are looking for a great intro to different styles of dance, this video is fantastic.There are two routines ...

Rating:  - Very Dated!
I bought this with the intention of getting some ideas for the children I teach.I was VERY un satistfied.BORING and looks like it is from the 80s.
Rating:  - boring
My 4 yr old is in dancing. I bought this tape hoping to help her, plus give her some exercise when it's too hot outside to do anything. But, it sucks. It's cheaply made and is so boring my daughter will not do it.
