As the class progresses, we focus on strength-building movements like fondu and sustained relevé, ensuring you maintain the core stability necessary for advanced artistry. A significant portion of this lesson is dedicated to the relationship between timing and alignment.
You will learn to navigate intricate combinations featuring coupé and passé transitions, all while maintaining the elegant lines required in an arabesque or a crisp sous-sus.
