New Online Ballet Fitness Classes - Ballet Core & Stretch & Flex
We’re so happy that so many people are choosing to join our online classes. Isolation is a weird thing but we can all agree that keeping fit and healthy during this period is super important - For both our physical and mental health.
Online classes are new for us so we love it when you leave feedback - and we’ve been listening! This week we’re launching two new online ballet fitness classes by popular request: Ballet Core and Stretch & Flex.
Ballet Fusion Ballet Core
Introducing our new Core fitness class. Your core is the basis of everything you do. Whether it’s walking down the street, standing and sitting or powering through a 45 min Ballet Fusion class. It’s really important that we strengthen our core as we age to stay strong and prevent injury. Having a strong core will:
Improve your posture
Help to maintain correct alignment in your back and hips
Help to prevent back, hip, knee, shoulder and neck injuries
Shape the waist, stomach and back
Improve balance
Increase your overall strength
Improve your ballet fitness technique and form
When we talk about your core, we’re talking about all the muscles which help you stay upright and support your spine and pelvis. Your core includes your back and pelvic floor muscles, as well as obliques and layers of abdominal muscles.
In the Ballet Fusion Ballet Core class we work through a series of exercises designed to target the core in the most effective and beautiful way. Your instructor will give you options to make some of the exercises easier or harder.
Who can do Ballet Core?
Ballet Core is an all levels class. Everyone can benefit from this class :)

We’re excited to launch this class. Increased flexibility is something so many of our clients want and this class will help you get more limber in the most safe and effective way.
