Thanks for grabbing that Pianist Cheat Sheet, I think you'll really enjoy it!

(If its not in your inbox, check your junk folder, k?)

I'm thrilled that you get to teach with a pianist.. 

I've left you a special message below!

 
I'd like to learn more about that Triple Meter Course..

All the music we use in ballet can be divided into 2 families:

duple and triple meter

For example: the mazurka, the polonaise, the waltz, the 6/8, the tarantella, the minuet, etc are ALL triple meter. While the hornpipe, polka, galop, 4/4 march, 6/8 march, tango, habanera are all divided into 2 pulses, or duple meter. When you begin to understand music through that concept, understanding the music you hear begins to simplify and make sense. 

The triple meter music that seems to trip the most people up are the mazurka, the polonaise and the 6/8. Since I get asked about them a lot I felt it made sense to create a smaller resource made of only those types! Easy to take in. Quick. 

Everything that comes inside The Official Music Training Course for Ballet Teachers (the PDFs, the MP4s, the video trainings, etc) are all included inside this mini course for these 3 music types!  

Additionally you score a SPECIAL Triple Meter Masterclass that is ONLY available inside this course! 

Be ready for your pianist..

Perhaps now isn't the time.. perhaps you don't already know these music types.. if that's the case, great! 

Then I suggest you'll probably enjoy a very special and incredibly valuable resource that I created recently. 

The Unset Exercise Music Tool 

It's a spreadsheet of exercise types listed in order of a typical ballet class. Then, to the right, I've created 2 columns, duple meter and triple meter! Then I've listed my top suggested music types for each exercise according to the meter type! 

Wildly useful if creativity and music selecting isn't your strong point! Using this spreadsheet will also help keep you from slipping into a rut of meter like, mostly triple meter or mostly duple meter (whichever is your greatest love, lol). 

Unset Exercise/Music Tool for the Musically Inclined Ballet Teacher!

Exams are done, syllabus can be shelved for a few weeks, and it's time to challenge your dancers in a new way, with unset exercises and unfamiliar music!! This is a super exciting time for young dancers; they've been craving new music, new rhythms, new patterns!  This brilliant and simple spreadsheet tool lays out a typical intermediate/advanced ballet class and then gives suggestions for possible music types for each exercise, divided by duple and triple meter. I even threw in a lot of music thoughts and guidance for you to consider when choosing! If creativity isn't your strong suit and you really just want some solid music ideas for your unset classes, this is a PERFECT tool to start with! Perhaps you're someone who always defaults to the same music types (i.e. triple meter plies or rag quick tendus, sound familiar?) and just really want to change things up but are struggling to really think of other options!  Whatever your reason, this fabulous 2 page POWER PACKED tool is a resource that most teachers can only dream of!
