Isabella

We're warming up

We're taking a short pause while Ballet With Isabella steps into something new. Same world-class training. A bigger mission behind it. This next chapter is about more than ballet. It's about how you train, and how you show up – in and out of the studio.

BWI - Isabella dancing

We'll be back soon. In the meantime... keep it moving

  • 32 calf rises each leg! – keep it slow and controlled
  • 30 glute bridges – lengthen through the floor
  • 1 minute plank - embrace the shakes!
  • 4 x 30 second balances in retiré each side – if you fall, we start from the top!
  • Practice your pirouettes from 5th and 4th each side. Try each turn until you feel 1 percent progress
  • An arabesque each side – master it, and make it clean
  • 1 minute butterfly stretch – breathe, don’t force, keep your back long and actively push the knees out

Isabella McGuire Mayes
Unlock length, control and clarity in every développé front and side.
Barre Extensions For Front & Side | Classes | Online Studio | Isabella
Class Info
About this Class

Unlock more height, strength and grace in your extensions with a barre designed to build from the ground up. You’ll focus on clean alignment, strong turnout and deep core engagement – the kind of foundations that give your développé more height without the crunch, and more control without the grip.

Expect to work both standing and working legs with precision, building the kind of placement that helps you move freely and fully, not just higher. A class for dancers who want to extend with power, ease and poise. And make every line count.
