This is ballet: but bigger, braver and bolder than you've ever experienced.

Enter the studio with Steven McRae, principal dancer with the Royal Ballet, and master everything from the basic positions to performing the most expressive jumps with step-by-step instructions and glorious illustrations throughout.

Steven's journey through the world of ballet has been anything but ordinary, and this is a companion book with a difference. Woven through the personal anecdotes on self-care, resilience and self-belief, is the book's central message: ballet is for absolutely everyone, including you!
