Thursdays
(No Class July 4th. Please note, we will either be on break or find an alternate location in August.)
7:00pm - 8:00pm
Kanopy Dance (341 State St)
$15 drop in / $60 for 5 classes / $100 for 10 classes
In this class we will work on our ballet technique through barre exercises, center work and moves across the floor. I firmly believe that ballet is for everybody/every body. If you think you're too stout, lanky, tall, short, old, stiff, or whatever you might criticize yourself about, to do ballet...you can stop now.
I teach this class for adults. Some of my students are former child dance students who have been on a break for 5, 10 or more years. Many are adults who never had either the courage or opportunity to dance when they were young. All levels of experience (including no experience!) are welcome in class.
Students are not required to wear leotards in class, though it is permitted if the student wants to wear ballet attire. But any dance/work out clothes that aren't too baggy are perfectly acceptable. Why not too baggy? Well, I want to be able to see your body's alignment to make sure you're staying safe. Also, avoid any pants that are too long for me to see your ankles and feet. Again, it's an issue of keeping your form correct and your dancing pain-free.
Students should wear ballet slippers, jazz shoes or plan to dance in socks. Tennis shoes and bare feet both stick to the floor too much for ballet.
