Item Description
Enjoy a 3 In-Studio Ballet Classes with Martha Chapman
Martha believes that dance unites body, mind, and spirit, regardless of student level, and that understanding ballet technique is a tool for dancers in all genres. Strongly articulated vocabulary is offered in a welcoming and nurturing class environment, with guidance to understand placement and alignment based on each dancer's body's structure. Dancers are encouraged to visualize energy lines through the body and to focus on where to initiate rotational or traveling force. Clear explanations of Barre and Center-floor vocabulary break down step execution, repetition develops strength and proper execution of steps. Upper level classes feature increased complexity, weight and direction changes, and introduce more advanced step vocabulary and faster musical tempi.
