Amy Meehan
The ballet class will focus on using proper technique and alignment throughout the class. Class will include center barre work, an adagio, petite allegro, work on turns and balance, grande allegro, and ending class learning a ballet variation. The class will also include safe stretching to improve and strengthen turnout. Dancers should wear ballet shoes or jazz shoes would be fine for this class too. No bare feet, sneakers, or socks. Everybody would benefit from taking this class to work on technique and skills that can be used across all styles of dance.
