En Time To Leap

We are excited to offer a new class this year at TTL for dancers in Level 4 and up: an Open-Level Leaps/Turns/Conditioning/Improvisation class! This class has been requested by many of you so we thought we'd put it on our schedule not once, but twice! The class will focus on honing technical skills such as breaking down the physics of turns and how to generate the power behind leaps. It will also include elements of conditioning using methods from traditional Pilates, calisthenics, and some work with yoga balls and resistance bands. Dancers will have a chance to improve their flexibility by building the strength needed to support deeper stretches. The class will conclude with some instructor-led improvisational exercises to tap into the performance quality and self-expression side of dance. This class will NOT be in the recitals, but will run all season. Taught by Miss Lily who earned her B.A. in Dance Education and Dance Performance from Muhlenberg College, she is also certified in Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT), Mat Pilates, and is a strength training coach. Dancers can expect to receive a well-rounded training experience focusing on safety and proper technique. This class is offered on Tuesdays from 7:15-8pm or Thursdays from 4:15-5pm.
