Beginner/Intermediate
Focused on elongating the muscles of the body, increasing natural balance, and activating the core muscles
that improve posture. This beginner/intermediate adult ballet class is designed for both students who have

never taken ballet and intermediate students who have a desire to return to and improve upon the basics. The
class includes some light stretching and warm-up to begin, work at the barre for approximately 30 minutes,
and a mix of simple legwork, turns, and small jumps in the center to finish. The laid-back pace encourages the
understanding of all movements by all students. Uniquely though, this pace also allows a comfortably
challenging environment for more advanced students by the specific adaptations and variations to
combinations, which will be given as needed. Current students of this class have reported an increase in their
body awareness—specifically (and arguably most importantly), a noticeable improvement in their balance.
