Talk:Vaganova method/Archive 1

I'm a proponent/product of the Vaganova school and even I think this is biased!

"considered by many to be an combination of the best of the French and Italian schools" -- it does combine the schools but who says what exactly is the "best" of each?

"the only method that predicts a safe and accurate outcome" -- in a word, doubtful.

"There is no other method like it." -- actually, there are many forms of classical ballet training, and they are not that dissimilar.

"the most difficult movements known to man - that of the classical pas de deux" -- yes, it's difficult, but so is gymnastics and ice skating and tightrope walking and so on and so forth.

"To say that the method is considered excellent is an understatement" -- definitely an opinion

"in today's world, few really understand what it is and how to use it" -- factual dispute here, perhaps more evidence needed

"It is believed that if a school has even one injury in the lesson, then the method is not really understood or used properly." -- this is apocryphal
