A Bit About Stretch & Strengthening
Ages 8+
Cross training and body maintenance is essential for dancers in order to prevent injury and to increase skill level. The first half of class is spent using Pilates, yoga, and other strengthening modalities to build core muscles and to strengthen the smaller muscles needed for dance. The second half of the class is spent doing a series of passive and active stretches to increase flexibility. Props like yoga blocks, straps, and Thera bands are used as well as a Yoga exercise Ball.
