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
If you struggle to fully stretch your knees, feel wobbly on landings, or lack push in your jumps – it could all stem from your thighs. This class targets the muscles that support and stabilise the knees, helping you train strength where it really matters. We’ll use ankle weights, resistance bands and dumbbells to challenge your lower body and build power from the ground up. Strong thighs and stable knees don’t just improve performance – they protect you from injury and give you cleaner lines and more confidence, too.
- Strengthen knees and thigh muscles for better control
- Improve jump takeoff and landing power
- Train stability to reduce risk of injury
- Learn to fully stretch and lengthen your lines
- Build a stronger foundation for allegro work
