Hi, lady. I'm CC from China. Since you are a VIP of this community, you must know something more about ballet than other people. Do you know some books about a ballet dancer's biography or memoir, in which there are also some dancing terms or terminology? I'm now looking for these books. I hope you can help me. Thanks very much!!!!!

In my third book, Letters to Follow- A Dancer's Adventure, I have a glossary of terms in the back. Balanchine's Complete Stories of the Great Ballets has the stories of many ballets as well as a Glossary of terms. You may also search Google by typing in 'ballet terminology'.
As far as dancer biographies, I suggest you put dancer names into an Amazon search: Misty Copeland , Maria Tallchief, Anna Pavlova, Alicia Markova, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Rudolf Nureyev, Vaslav Nijinsky. Or, you may type in 'famous ballet dancers'.
I hope this helps you. Let me know if you have further questions.
