My first class was so so so so fantastic. We started with a mini-lecture/encouragement discussion, lead by the director of the ballet center (same guy who will be teaching us until we're good enough to pass to less experienced teachers). Then we learned how to stand (seat engaged, stomach pulled in, head in line with body). Then we learned how to approach the bar. Then how to get into first position. Then eleve and releve and demi-plie and grand plie. And then some exercises on holding our hands and arms. I LOVE THIS INSTRUCTOR!! He wants us to practice our moves while waiting for the lights to change. The last thing we did was learn a moving step (waltz). He hopes to see is waltzing down Market Street. He also guarantees that, if we stick with it, we will lift our seats by 1.5 inches (translation: firm up our flabby asses). I HAVE FOUND MY CALLING!!!!!!!!!!
It sounds like the center is approaching it exactly like it should - starting you out with the _best_ instructor and paying attention to the fact that some folks might have some psychological concerns with taking a beginning ballet class as an adult.

It's like the Monkey Bar Gym of ballet centers!
