Ballet: Modern and Jazz
Music, Dance & Drama
Ballet is a fun way to exercise. It's all about movement! Enjoy rhythm while dancing to music using ballet technique. The advantage of dance and movement programs like ballet is that you can go at your own pace. The value of using a chair is that participants can stop and rest while continuing with their arm movements. The focus will be on body alignment, natural movements, building strength, increasing balance, and stability. Through good body alignment, posture is improved, while strength and balance are gained through movement.
