Physical Coordination
The main principle of ballet is to focus on balance, coordination and strength. Each exercise and step builds on all of these and will create a strong dancer. To dance properly, you must have good posture and a strong core. These will also benefit your overall health.
In addition to this, ballet can increase awareness of the way you stand, sit and walk.
Mental Strength & Focus
As well as the physical demands of ballet, it also takes a lot of mental strength. While you work hard to coordinate your feet, your brain helps this happen. It takes discipline and focus to master ballet.
When dancing, you need to always be present and concentrating on what you’re doing.
Builds Confidence
Ballet can do wonders for your self-confidence. Through elegant and graceful movement, ballet can help you understand your body and become more aware of your movement.
You will never feel more confident as you do when you are dancing.
Meeting New Friends
This is a really fun way to make new friends for both adults and children. The ballet community is extremely welcoming and encouraging. Both dancers and instructors do their best to ensue you have a positive experience.
The friends you make in class will make long-lasting memories. You will watch each other grow stronger and more confident every day.
