CLASS DESCRIPTION
This class is designed to make dancers stronger and reduce risk of injury. Using the 5 principle functional movements patterns (squat, hinge, push, pull, and carry), this class will help dancers build muscle, improve neuromuscular connections, and focus on alignment. Different regressions and progressions are always offered in order to ensure that all students are both challenged and safe at all times.
