🌟 WEEKLY FOCUS🌟

This week, it’s all about our PORT DE BRAS! 🩰✨

Port de bras means “carriage of the arms” – or, as we like to think of it, making our arms dance just as beautifully as our feet! 💕

From our TINY DANCERS fluttering their graceful butterfly wings 🦋, to our older dancers adding style to their character dances💃, every dancer will be discovering just how important our arms are!

Our vocational dancers will also be putting their port de bras to work as they prepare for PIROUETTES! 🌀🩰

Beautiful arms need a strong body to support them, so this week we’ll be thinking about:
🦋 Soft, graceful arms
👑 Tall, proud posture
✨ Beautifully stretched fingers
🩰 Using our arms to help us balance
🌀 Strong preparation for our turns
💃 Adding expression and personality to our dancing!

We can’t wait to see lots of beautiful butterfly wings, elegant ballet arms and fabulous performance and style! 🦋🩰💃

🌟WEEKLY FOCUS🌟

🚀 READY… SET… JUMP! 🚀

This week we’re seeing just how HIGH our dancers can FLY! 🩰☁️

From our tiniest Pre-School Pliés learning their very first jumps, all the way to our older dancers tackling exciting allegro combinations, we’re focusing on ELEVATION!
But great jumps aren’t just about getting up in the air! 👀

We’ll be working on:
🦵 Powerful pliés
🚀 Explosive take-offs
🩰 Beautiful stretched feet
✨ Light, controlled landings
💪 Strong technique to keep our bodies safe

🏆 DANCER CHALLENGE:
Can you make your jumps look higher, lighter and quieter by the end of the week?

Who’s ready to JUMP into a new week of dancing? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

🌟 WEEKLY FOCUS 🌟

This week's is Dexterity of the Feet! 🩰
From tendus to temps levés, our feet play a vital role in supporting our technique, strength and balance.

Throughout this week's classes, we'll be exploring how we use and articulate our feet, developing greater control, precision and strength to enhance our dancing! ✨

✨TURNOUT! ✨

Turnout is one of ballet’s superpowers! ⭐

It starts right in the hips, where we gently rotate our legs so that our knees and toes point outwards. Turnout helps us make beautiful ballet positions and gives our legs more freedom to move to the side and behind us.

💡 Remember: Turnout comes from your hips, not just your feet! Never force your feet to turn out further than feels comfortable.

🎯 Your challenge this week:
Can you think about your turnout when you stand in your ballet positions and when you move.
Strong hips 💪
Happy knees 😊
Beautiful ballet feet 🩰✨
Let’s practise our turnout and see how much we can improve this week!

✨ POSTURE! ✨

Great posture helps us to look strong, confident and ready to DANCE! 💃🕺

By holding our bodies correctly, we can control our arms and legs more easily, improve our balance and perform our movements with greater accuracy. ⭐

Let’s see your BEST posture in class this week! 🌟

Stand tall. Dance strong. SHINE! ✨
