Bebe Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) Sorry for being so clueless, but I need clarifications as to what these teaching terms mean. ie - Cecchetti, Vaganova, RAD, Balanchine, French Method??? 1. What are the differences between all these different methods of teaching? 2. What ( if anything) does it mean (in broad terms) for a dancer learning one or more of these styles of ballet. I must be honest I don't know which ballet method is being taught to my daughter. DD has been at the studio for 5 years and I never thought to find out what method was being taught. Will it make a difference for her in the long run? With that being said - The owners/instructors must be doing something right because several of our students have gotten into some very good schools/companies PNB, Kirov, Boston, San Francisco Ballet Apologies if these answers are already posted someplace else, still getting the hang of this...

There are quite a few links to many discussions of this topic here on BT4D. I will close this thread so as not to have duplicate threads. Link to comment
