EQUIPMENT NEEDED
A yoga mat is advised for comfort, a theraband to assist with stretching and a yoga block to help with a neutral posture. We have mats, blocks and therbands to borrow or buy too.
ABOUT
Lengthen, strengthen, align and tone your body with ballet and Pilates inspired exercises on the floor. No ballet or dance experience required!
Traditionally, ballerinas take floor barre classes to better understand their alignment and improve their dancing skills. It's also used for ballerinas in recovery from injuries. Doing these exercises on the floor improves posture and body awareness in turn improving any work done standing.
It's also great for people with injuries and the elderly or anyone else who doesn't have great balance!
