Adult Beginner Ballet: Ballet is a great physical activity that involves cardio, stretching, concentration, music, and memory. It burns calories, lengthens and strengthens muscles and contributes to an all-around sense of well-being.
This is an engaging, upbeat, thoughtful class that challenges without frustrating the students while focusing on helping them adjust their technical placement and posture for better strength and control.
Ballet originated in the Italian renaissance courts of the 15th century, where elite members of society were treated to a spectacle of dance and music. Transitioning from the court, to the opera, and then to the stage by the late 18th century, ballet began to stand on its own as an art form. By the 19th century, ballet began to look like what we see today; dancers in pointe shoes, narrative storylines, and ethereal athleticism. Ballet is a classical style of dance that is characterized by graceful movement, balance and symmetry, precision of movement, and a codified classical technique.
