Ballet 2

Entry requirements: Classical ballet 1 or at least one year of experience in classical dance. You have to be familiar with the ballet positions.  

Classical Dance still plays a prominent roll in the Western dance scene. People have been performing classical ballet for centuries, and still it has not lost its popularity. This dance technique characterizes itself through some uniquely defined physical movements and a set curriculum.

You will start your class warming up with exercises at the barre. Also, during this course attention will be paid to different techniques such as pirouettes, plies, tendues, rondes jambes, stretches, jumping techniques and graceful ports des bras. 

Tomomi combines classical ballet techniques with neo-classical influences as well as jazz. Classical ballet is not only great for the body, but also strengthens your posture and provides for an intense workout!

Clothing and footwear

Ballet shoes and comfortable but not oversized clothing, since it makes it hard for the instructor to make comments on your posture or provide correct ions. If you would like to buy ballet shoes, your teacher can give you advice in the first class. Do you have long hair? Then it’s best to tie it up.
