Review: Finis Jhung Ballet for Life; A Pictorial Memoir
Reviewed by S. Light

Finis Jhung’s Ballet for Life: A Pictorial Memoir mirrors the man himself.

Concise, yet detailed. Controlled, yet fluid. Reserved, yet revealing — with elegance and originality overseeing all.
The moving memoir’s title — a metaphoric play-on-words — reflects Jhung’s long and illustrious career as a renowned ballet dance and master teacher. It, also, illuminates his philosophy, methodology, and principles for life itself.
Brimming with some 300 black-and-white photos, Ballet for Life chronicles not only Jhung’s private and professional life, but also documents a broader context of dance and social history.

Indeed, social history, autobiography, artistry and everyday life converge in Jhung’s simple yet sophisticated style of memoir: a straightforward, self-reflexive juxtaposition of photos and text. Ballet for Life is an unfolding portrait of an artist as a child, young man, acclaimed performer and seasoned teacher.

Each photo of family members, dance colleagues, spiritual mentors or Jhung himself is paired on the opposite page with telling commentary about the people, time and place — literary “stage left” and “stage right” reflections of intimate recollections.

Onto his stage steps young Finis Jhung in a story that pirouettes from his formative years — his childhood in Hawaii, his family background of trials and tribulations, separation, sacrifice and support to his singular discipline and determination to become a professional dancer.

The story moves him from baby steps to hula steps in Honolulu, from island dance studios to mainland dance studies at the University of Utah, from New York City and Broadway to the Harkness, Robert Joffrey and San Francisco ballet companies. While still in prime performing years, Finis adopts Buddhist principles and practice and, shockingly, renounces his stardom, gives up dancing and his dancer’s identity to further show his commitment to his spiritual path. He even burns his precious film footage of legendary danseur noble Erik Bruhn and other archival material.
Heartbreak and happiness — born of and by decades as a practicing Buddhist — pervade the book as Finis wends his way back to ballet, founding, directing and choreographing for his own Chamber Ballet USA company and becoming a master teacher.

At age 80, Finis briefly takes time off to undergo hip replacement surgery and recovery, which he documents in detail in his book, and then resumes his active and current teaching schedule.

Finis, also, sets the stage for other luminaries, who are part of the larger dance legacy, to be seen.
Among these influential and inspirational dancers, teachers, choreographers and producers are Erik Bruhn, Antony Tudor, Alexandra Danilova, Robert Joffrey, Alvin Aliey, William F. Christensen, Rebekah Harkness, Lawrence Rhodes, Michael Smumin, Helgi Tomasson, Michelle Wiles and Isabella Boylston, both of whom studied with Finis and appear in some of his more-than-50 instructional dance videos, which are available to anyone.

Further, Ballet for Life is filled with details of Finis’ teaching philosophy and principles (both ballet and Buddhist), analysis of his own early dance technique and performance struggles and his subsequent findings that have contributed to his unique instructional methodology. These insights inspire and correct career professionals and general adult dancers to whom he has committed his current efforts.

Finis concludes his memoir with heartfelt testimonies of colleagues and students. It is easy to see why the renowned dancer and master teacher is so respected, so revered and beloved by his family, friends, students, colleagues and critics.

No wonder, as Finis Jhung, says at the end of his memoir, “I feel stronger and happier than ever. I am blessed.”

With Ballet for Life, so are we.

Title: Finis Jhung does it again!
Date: Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2018
Review: When I moved to NYC to dance with a ballet company in 1978, there were several important teachers in the city. I had good potential, but I was thrown onstage with little training and had to fake it. Ballet is very hard to fake. I didn’t know what I was doing, but I really wanted to learn. The most highly-regarded teachers at the time were David Howard and Finis Jhung, and one of my best friends in the ballet company, Sanson Candelaria, suggested I take class with Finis. I found his studio filled with the most important dancers in New York: classical ballet dancers, Broadway gypsies, modern dancers, tappers — a Who’s Who of the dance world at the time. He has maintained this reputation since he taught his first class, and for very good reason. He knows his stuff and can help you dance better no matter where you are on the learning curve.
His marvelous book, “Ballet for Life”, is an exceptional additional to literature on ballet, as well as to the theatrical canon and, really, life and biography itself. In lively, lucid prose Finis reveals his childhood and early career in vivid detail, chronicling his life and how his it was shaped by the events of the time. He describes growing up in Hawaii and the struggles that he had to overcome in a provincial environment that really didn’t understand dance. He deftly touches upon the issues that someone with East Asian features had with the white-white-white and heteronormative world of ballet. He outlines the travails that led to his career in a wonderful behind-the-curtain look at the world of post-WWII ballet and theatre. His ultimate disillusionment with the dance world (in Monte Carlo no less) is treated frankly and without the usual tortured emotional histrionics that are so typical in other artistic memoirs. We learn about his work creating a very innovative ballet company during the 1980s and his return to teaching. Though he became one of the most remarkable and sought-after teachers in the world, Finis doesn’t toot his own horn. He doesn’t have to, as his reputation speaks for itself.
Perhaps, among the most revelatory and informative chapters concern his hip replacement surgery and his road to recovery. His narrative on this will surely be helpful to both dancers and non-dancers alike who must face this challenge. Again, it is told with Finis’ simple and compassionate worldview and a discerning eye for those details that can instruct. This ability to see such things so clearly is really, I would argue, what makes his classes and life story illuminating to others.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn about, not only ballet and the theatrical world in the post WWII era, but for those who are curious as to how a great teacher and a great person evolves and endures. It’s fun and lively read.
