“Pilates and Play” with Fiona Oba
Taught by Fiona Oba, this Instagram Live class will begin with a Pilates mat warm-up and culminate in the “Play” portion of learning a short combination inspired by Alison Cook Beatty Dance repertory. Pilates will explore building strength, flexibility, and balance from a stable basis through basic exercises on the mat. The adapted repertory portion will explore the signature motifs of ACBD work in short and simple phrases. This class strives to be inclusive and accessible to dancers and non-dancers alike. People of different levels, ages, and abilities are encouraged to join, and various modifications will be offered.
