Home at the Barre: Adult Ballet

A comprehensive guidebook for the adult ballet student.

Home At the Barre – Adult Ballet, the fourth book in the Garage Ballet series, is a comprehensive guidebook for the adult ballet student. Ballet is a great exercise choice for adults because the steps and combinations press you to work, help you maintain strength levels, stay flexible, and most importantly, make you think about what you’re doing.

An experienced ballet instructor for over forty years, Dawn C Crouch can undoubtedly relate to being an adult. But, as a teacher who continues to take class, she wants every potential student to understand the class requirements and expectations that are unique to adult ballet curricula.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Perfect Guidebook for Adult Dancers! I am a huge fan of the Garage Ballet resource books and am especially excited about Home At the Barre – Adult Ballet. With her signature warmth and wit, Dawn C. Crouch writes intentionally to “encourage you to take the first step into the studio, commit to a regular routine, and win the mind game that adults often wage with themselves over age and self-image.

I had the good fortune of being trained by Dawn Crouch. She instilled not only technique and work ethic but a love for the arts that still drives me today in my dancing and in training the next generation.

Miss Dawn Is a teacher who always boosted my confidence. She went beyond the simple technique of ballet and allowed ballet class to be a haven for artistic expression. As I now teach young students ballet, I hope to instill the same confidence and artistry that Miss Dawn cultivated in me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes me want to dance!Ballet Helps Everything! has motivated me to take up ballet to improve my riding. This is not a how-to-dance book, but it’s a fantastic why-to-dance book.

Having Dawn Crouch as a teacher from a young age has molded me into not only the dancer but the person I am today.

There is no teacher I would trust more with the training of my dancers than Dawn Crouch. Her approach to a dancer’s ballet education is by far her greatest strength.

I was so lucky to have such an inspiring ballet teacher like Dawn Crouch growing up. The wisdom that Miss Dawn shared with me helped me become a better dancer and more importantly, a better person.

I have had the great honor to have Miss Dawn as one of my teachers. She is an incredible teacher with such a great knowledge of the art of ballet. The corrections she gave me as a student are still helping me in my professional dance career today! She’s amazing!
