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

Class Info
About this Class
This class brings two of Isabella’s worlds together: mindful stretching and mental reset. With slow hip opening, deep breathing and gentle cues, you’ll ease tension in the glutes, hip flexors and lower back while tuning into simple mindset prompts that help you focus, reflect and recentre. It’s calm, grounding and a welcome pause in a busy week. Pair it with an episode of A Dancer’s Mindset for an even deeper reset.
