Ballet + Alexander Technique = bAlleT

Image from bAlleT class with Tom Baird.

This is a beginning/intermediate level ballet class that combines both the principles of classical ballet and the Alexander Technique which leads to the free-flow of easy, efficient movement, as well as clear dynamic actions. The class is designed for students to discover the "how" and allows for the time to notice, and, ultimately, to consciously apply these principles before, during and after moving. Each class may include a short "lie-down," a barre, center work, grand allegro, and exploration and discussion of anatomy. 

Class meets weekly on Mondays 6-7:30pm, all are welcome!
