💪 New Class! – Mat Pilates Class for Dancers – Saturdays @ 10 am
From salsa to ballet and everything in between, this is a conditioning class for dancers of all genres, all ages, and all body types. Mat Pilates targets the deep core strength, spinal mobility, and postural alignment that every dancer needs, translating directly into sharper turns, more powerful hip isolation, and greater control from center to fingertips. In this class we will work through exercises designed specifically for dancers’ bodies: correcting imbalances, building stability in the supporting leg, and sharpening the body awareness that takes your dancing to the next level. All styles, all levels, all welcome — come ready to move!
Mat Pilates Class for Dancers – Saturdays @ 10 am
Please bring a yoga mat and optional knee pads.
