This candid memoir opens a fascinating window on the emotive journey of a ballet mum: the mother of Yasmine Naghdi, Principal ballerina of The Royal Ballet.
She presents a unique perspective on the many trials and tribulations she has lived through: from her initial hesitations to all her concerns once Yasmine commenced her classical ballet training at The Royal Ballet School, and up until she joined The Royal Ballet as a young professional dancer.
"Tears of a Ballet Mum" offers a fascinating insight into what it takes to support a talented child through elite-level ballet training, how to building mental strength, and how to take ownership of the training whilst ensuring overall mental well-being.
With over 70 private, backstage and performance colour photos. Signed by Sabine Naghdi.
