Classical Foundations Series
From grounded pliés to expressive port de bras and lifted arabesque, this series strengthens the muscles that make ballet feel effortless — and finishes with a joyful dance sequence that brings it all together. Each workout blends precise ballet technique with smart conditioning — so you’re not just repeating movements, you’re understanding them, strengthening them, and embodying them.
Inside this series, we focus on the true building blocks of classical ballet:
• Pliés — grounded strength, turnout control, and knee alignment
• Port de Bras — upper-body elegance and postural support
• Arabesque — posterior chain power and lifted lines
• A final flowing dance sequence weaving everything together into one joyful, expressive combination
We've also added a bonus Foundations live class recording, which weaves all these pillars into a pacy 30 minutes for when you are confident with the techniques, to move at speed
This series is about:
✔ Building strong, safe technique
✔ Sculpting long, lean muscle
✔ Improving posture and mobility
✔ Moving with grace and control
✔ Feeling like a dancer — at any level
And we finish exactly as we should: not with drills, but with dance. That lets you experience the strength you’ve built — in motion. Try the continuing suggested workouts over on our app calendar this month.
