Contemporary Ballet for Adults with Melissa* – NEW CLASS
October 19 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm PDT
Have you always wanted to try ballet or modern dance
classes? Or perhaps you studied dance years ago and are
interested in getting back into it?
Melissa Riley offers a class that is built on basic ballet
steps, expanding on this classical style by involving the
torso, hips, shoulders, and an increased freedom of
movement.
Every class begins with a series of ballet-based warm-up
exercises, each followed by a short phrase of movement.
Towards the end of each class, the recently learned
phrases of movement are combined into a dance which
will be repeated for 3 weeks, giving time for learning and
expansion of expression.
Dance is a mindful practice, an art that combines music,
math, precise movement of the body, physical
conditioning, creative expression, expansion of spirit,
communication through performance, and community
cooperation.
