The focus of this workshop is on building core strength, accessing those sometimes hard to feel turnout muscles, flexibility, and coordination of port de bras. Exercises are done to music and are designed to compliment your regular dance classes. This workshop
is appropriate for all levels. Students need to bring a yoga mat, a yoga ball, and a Thera-band.*
Have fun learning a conditioning routine you can do at home that will help you improve in the dance classes you take at the studio.
*Questions about what to bring should be directed to Aimee Lopez at aimee@dancehubsb.org.
