Class Description
A slow all-levels class offering a somatic approach to movement based in ballet principles. Centering breath and building from the floor to the barre, a yogic inspired warm-up will guide dancers to connect to their bodies from the inside out. Prioritizing anatomical awareness, strength-building, and safe alignment, this class will use ballet logic and vocabulary to develop the foundation for classical ballet technique as an introduction to the form; or for experienced dancers, a welcomed space to organize the body and refine your practice. No previous dance experience necessary.
