What can students expect from this class?

Barefoot Ballet is a modern approach to Classical Ballet that focuses on mind-body connection, anatomical alignment, and injury prevention. Each class will consist of Floor Barre exercises, a thorough Ballet Barre, and center work, all built around a central theme from improving balance, to safely deepening external rotation, to increasing fluidity of movement in the upper body. This is an open-level class designed to uniquely challenge dancers with a variety of experience levels from professional dancers to elementary adult students. Some prior experience with Ballet is recommended.

 

Finish this statement: We are passionate about teaching this style because…

…dance is our favorite medium of fostering growth, joy and healing.
