Movie Reviews of Introduction to Baroque Dance: Dance Types
Movie Review: Finding the missing link
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very well done, beautifully danced set of baroque dances. As a ballet dancer I'd always heard ballet evolved from French Baroque dance - here I saw it for the first time. You can see how dance had gotten about as formal and structured as it is possible to get - before evolving into another dance form.
Paige Whitley-Bauguess is a lovely woman and beautiful dancer.
