Introduction
Class outline
Building correct foundations in ballet is absolutely key and critical. When working with students, the thing Isabella finds students are struggling with most of all is turnout. Hip mobility, inner thigh and deep rotator connection.
This is a connection that is often overlooked. You may find yourself rushed to do more advanced steps without fully understanding and training that connection. Making future more advanced steps challenging.
In this Beginner Barre with a focus on Turnout, we will be doing slow and controlled exercises with expert cues to help you establish and train that connection. It is of the upmost importance to get this right.
For more turnout conditioning, try the other conditioning classes in the online studio.
This class is perfect for beginners and people wanting to slow down to refine their skill and connection.
Let’s get going!
Meet your teacher.
