A few class goals:
-increase core strength.
Why? Because all those tiny muscles will help tremendously with centre for turns and balances.
-create exercises that can be practiced at home.
How? Each participant will have a duotang where they can write down all the exercises we do for easy reference.
-focus on typically injury-susceptible areas for dancers/athletes.
Where? Backs and knees, baby, backs and knees.
-work on jumping ability.
-make conditioning enjoyable and effective (of course!)
-increase overall flexibility, especially hips and hamstrings because if you haven't got those, you've got yourself an injury waiting to happen!
