Out of Step: A Life in Ballet

By Lynn Hoffman

Book Overview

Born in France in 1944, Alida Belair's great talent as a dancer was soon recognised after her family emigrated to Australia in 1949. This autobiography tells of her career, from her major roles with the Borovansky Ballet touring Australia and her times as the first Australian to study with the Bolshoi Company in Moscow, to her professional career in Europe and the United States. She also discusses her private life, including her years as a member of Melbourne's Jewish community. Includes photographs and an index. First published in hardback in 1993.
