Ballet for contemporary dancers
This ballet class for contemporary dancers focuses on correct biomechanics and energy efficiency to discover the concept of classical ballet. The learning process is stress-free but continues to be challenging, informative and fun. It starts with a logical and steady progression through barre with an emphasis on alignment and the chance to explore the movements. In the centre, dancers are encouraged to express their individuality, musicality, use the space and learn complex combinations. Developing strength, dynamics and flow leads to the jumps at the end of the class.
