Class experience
CLASS STRUCTURE: In this workshop we will explore the fundamentals of Ballet technique and establish the basic Ballet vocabulary progressively throughout the four weeks. We will start from the very basics (establishing the basic ballet positions) and move towards more advanced exercises such as turns and leaps. All classes will start on the floor, warming up the body and establishing alignment and good posture. Then we will progress through barre exercises such as plies, tendus, rond de...
Students will gain basic understanding of the ballet technique, discover new abilities and capacity to move their bodies in different ways and gain physical strength through a more extensive workshop utilizing ballet vocabulary.

-Soft ballet shoes (if accessible) or socks -Water bottle (if desirable) -Comfortable clothing -Ballet barre (If you don't have a barre you can use a wall/ chair/ any piece of furniture around waist-height, accessible in your home)
Just a few logistics before we get started: It is nice to join the zoom meeting a few minutes early (if possible, otherwise no worries) so that I can help you with your setup. Just make sure you are wearing comfortable clothes (if you have ballet attire, that's great, but if not that is totally fine). Find a room with some space to move (you may have to move some furniture around and make sure there is no cords or things you might trip over) and place your device on the floor so I can see your full body as you are moving. Other than that you are all set and ready to get moving!
