Not really but i think in this case google is a good option
google.com
Well, my recommendation would actually be to go look up the information in a book. I highly recommend “Dancing Through History” by Joan Cass. It has a lot of really good information in it. However, if you just want websites…
You can find a timeline at http://www.balletmet.org/EDUCATIO/TimeIndx.html
There is some more information at:

This is a start. Good luck with your research:)
