Ballet Bliss

Have you ever wanted to try ballet? It’s never too late to start!

This elegantly poised class will focus on the foundation of dance with technique being at the forefront. We will strengthen and lengthen our bodies with some supported exercises and then find beauty and flow in centre combinations and corner work as we immerse ourselves in a fusion of traditional classical and contemporary repertoire.

 

No experience required. It’s not about being a prima ballerina; it’s about enjoyment, health and wellbeing. There are just so many benefits from participating in a weekly ballet class. Studies have shown people have experienced improvements in:

​

- fitness, flexibility and strength

- balance, coordination and posture

- breath flow, memory recall and mood

 

We will use some of the combinations we learn in class to create a short piece to one of the ballet classics (eg Swan Lake, Carmen, Nutcracker etc). Note: You do not need ballet shoes to start - any soft shoe, socks with grip or bare feet are ok
