We are so excited to welcome Paula into our studio for a workshop specified on conditioning for dancers. This is a not to miss opportunity for our competitive and non-competitive dancers!! This workshop will benefit your child's dance development and provide them with tools to help train their body in a healthy and safe process inside and outside their regular classes. Conditioning offers dancers the unique opportunity to explore how to strengthen their quality of movement and the understanding of why we need to strengthen and stretch our bodies to keep them in tip top shape during dance training. Space is limited!! Please reply to this email to reserve your child a spot!
