Floor Barre Intermediate
Introduction
About this class.

This Class one of my favourite classes of all time. Floor Barre is something that really helped me discover my turnout. I have drawn inspiration from floor barres I have crossed paths with over the years and added my own exercises as well.

Connecting with the correct muscles can be hard but this class really helps you connect with those difficult turn out muscles we all need to find.

If you do this regularly, your technique will vastly improve! Turnout will get better, balance, pirouettes. That’s what we want!

This class can be for all levels, though it’s best for intermediate and up.

Enjoy!
