get this tape for your aspiring ballerina!!!Oct 02, 1999
This is an incredible, fun class for young children. We've rented this video from our library more than 20 times and still want to own it. This teacher is every parent and child's dream.

Ballerina Alert!Jun 01, 2000
I must admit that at first I wasn't overly impressed with this video. It is a dance class video, no real "frills." My 5 year old daughter on the other hand takes it very seriously. Today she even asked me, "Mommy next year when I take dance, can I have this teacher if she's available?" I have even found myself on more than one occasion reliving my ballerina dreams with my daughter, focusing on the instructor, trying desperately to get my 30 something old feet to do the moves! At least twice a week we push back the coffee table and roll up the rug. This one is a winner in our home.

Most excellent for a budding ballet dancer!Mar 11, 2002
The instruction? Excellent! Technique? Perfect level for a young child! To an experienced professional it may appear to be lacking, however it is important to remember what the audience is for this tape. It's fun and educational without being overwhelming... helping to prepare young children for formal dance lessons in the future years. As for the person who reviewed Ms. Boross' teaching to be "turned in," it makes me wonder what they were watching because it certainly was not this video. I'm glad I did not let the opinion of that particular view disuade my purchase. My children love the video, and to echo someone else, my daughters all want "Miss Rosemary" to teach them in real life!

The Kids Love It!!!May 09, 2001
When we put this video in all 4 of my kids (5,4 and 3 year old twins)stopped what they were doing and began following along! They even clapped for themselves between songs and begged me to let them watch it all the way through to the end! That's proof enough if a good video for me!

Cheaply-Made, Poorly-ExecutedFeb 13, 2004
I was very disappointed in this DVD. Aside from being lit and directed poorly, there was little to no variation in the camera angles, the sound was mastered poorly, the teacher was nearly impossible to hear over the mildly-grating music, and the moves were not well-taught. The little routines were cute enough, but they weren't really something that could be followed and imitated easily. It just wasn't very engaging. My daughter really enjoyed Yoga Kids (by Gaiam/Living Arts), which I thought was a far better example of a well-made educational/exercise kids' video.
