The choreography features a series of intricate movements designed to challenge your flow and coordination.
You will refine your temps lié and soutenu transitions, ensuring that every shift of weight is smooth and intentional. We also explore the allongé movement, focusing on hand positioning and the reaching energy required to make an arabesque truly powerful.

Throughout the class, the instructor provides detailed corrections to help you master complex sequences involving the chassé and sus-sous. You will gain a better understanding of how to use your arms to add energy and emotion, turning a standard exercise into a work of art.
