Here at last, a reference book on toe shoes!

Comprehensive and amply illustrated, this little jewel of a book sheds light on how these shoes are made as well as their use. The presentation of the history behind these shoes positively brims with anecdotes. The book even reveals exercises for learning how to use these special shoes. The little professional tricks of the trade will no longer elude dancers, whether beginning or advanced.
A part of the book is also devoted to toe shoe makers as well as the prestigious schools where each day is devoted to preparing tomorrow's stars.
The perfect book for all ballerinas!
