Warm-Up and Technique Development: Begin with carefully structured warm-up exercises that gradually increase in intensity, preparing your body for more advanced movements.
Petit Allegro and Combinations: Practice jumps and intricate movements at the barre and centre to refine coordination and elevate technical precision.

Fluidity and Artistry: Focus on connecting movements seamlessly and expressing artistry through every step.
Personalised Corrections: Your instructor will provide individual and group guidance to help you grasp the nuances of ballet technique and encourage you to stretch beyond your comfort zone.
Whether you’re returning to ballet or striving to improve your technique, L3: Ballet Progression - Classical Ballet offers a supportive and inspiring environment to help you grow as a dancer.
