STUDIO Contemporary Ballet Class

About this class

This class is a different approach to Ballet and an opportunity to investigate and put into practice your technical abilities, as well as to discover more about your dancing. In this class, students will warm up at the barre incorporating contemporary vocabulary and concepts that will later be developed. After barre and instead of center work, we will work on ballet-based choreographed phrases exploring the articulation of the spine, mobility of the upper body, musicality, directional changes, speed and intention, developing new skills and expanding our practice and curiosity. Studio Class Information Studio classes run like a traditional ballet class starting at the barre and then moving to the center through traditional class exercises and combinations. Be prepared to sweat (at least a little) and to have a good time. This is a one-and-a-half-hour ballet class at 455 Franklin Street in San Francisco. Please arrive no earlier than 15 minutes prior to the start of class, or you may be asked to wait outside. Check-in will begin 15 minutes prior to class in the lobby. Class pre-registration is strongly recommended through MindBody via the app or the website as we cannot guarantee accommodation for walk-in students. Students may not be permitted into class if they arrive more than 5 minutes past the start time.
