It is ideal for those who like to dance, or just wish to <\/span>tone their body <\/span><\/strong>and relax their mind.<\/span><\/p>\n

This innovative programme of exercises, inspired by training for professional ballet dancers, combines the best of <\/span>Pilates<\/span><\/strong>, ballet and <\/span>fitness<\/span><\/strong> in just one class, guaranteeing a very complete physical and mental workout. The discipline which is currently all the rage in gyms and sports clubs, improves <\/span>flexibility and balance<\/span><\/strong>, strengthens the abdominal area (core) and reduces stress in just a few sessions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Body Ballet sessions last about an hour and are divided into three parts: <\/span>warm up, development and stretching<\/span><\/strong>. Classical dance positions are combined with floor and barre exercises and modern dance, creating at times a peaceful ambient and, at others, an ambient for aerobics, and ends up with relaxation.\u00a0\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

5 reasons for doing Body Ballet<\/span><\/h3>\n

1. <\/span>Prior knowledge is not required<\/span><\/strong> to practise it, as ballet exercises are learnt little by little, to get the body to work and improve your posture gradually.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. <\/span>All the body muscles come into play: <\/span><\/strong>your figure is toned and stylised while your mind relaxes. The body is involved in barre as well as floor exercises and the class finishes with the final reverence.<\/span><\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> If constant, <\/span>the results are appreciable after 3 months<\/strong>:<\/span> posture approves in general, shoulders, neck and back. You will notice how your muscles are strengthened and how your body becomes more agile and feels lighter. <\/span><\/p>\n

4. <\/span><\/strong>It relaxes the mind and the body<\/strong>:<\/span> during sessions, you work on your mental attention as positions requiring the alignment of posture and balance focus on breathing. Just as your body relaxes its joints and rectifies rigidity, your mind can also wander. <\/span><\/p>\n

5. <\/span>Suitable for any age<\/span><\/strong>: everybody can take up Body Ballet, irrespective of their age. It is an ideal technique for those who like dancing, are concerned about their health and are not interested in strictly classical ballet.<\/span><\/p>\n

This combination of classical and contemporary techniques will help you improve your posture, increase your elasticity and achieve harmony and general wellbeing.<\/span><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
