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.
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
This class is your guide to unlocking more height, artistry and alignment in two of ballet’s most iconic positions. With a mix of exercises, imagery and stretch work, Isabella shows you how to activate the muscles that matter – from the back and glutes to the core and turnout line. Whether you’re aiming for a more expressive arabesque or refining your attitude, this class helps you train with precision and purpose. With consistency, strength and clarity come together to reveal the lines you’ve been working for.
