iWantToDance Glossary of Terms and Ballet Dictionary

Overview

Welcome to the iWantToDance Glossary of Terms and Ballet Dictionary, we aim to provide a comprehensive breakdown of not only all of the Ballet terminology you should be familiar with and their meanings and a complete breakdown of the primary moves and name variations you can expect to come across in the UK Ballet scene, but also the teachers, performers, national events and influences that have both made the dance what it is today, but also those that now carry the flag forward and push Ballet to new limits of style, influence and enjoyment across the various Ballet scenes.
