CLASS STRUCTURE:
The class will start on the floor going through a warmup and will continue with learning the ballet positions. We will be establishing the basics of ballet vocabulary using the barre (you can use a wall/ chair/ any piece of furniture around waist-height, accessible in your home). We will work on musicality and a basic understanding of the discipline of dance through a ballet lens. After we explore multiple exercises we will move away from the barre and go through a center exercise. In the end there will be a few minutes for discussion, questions and a body cool down.
