As dancers, we tend to focus on relaxing into our movements for more grace and fluidity, but what if I told you strength and isometric contraction was key to the graceful arm movements we all love?
In this workshop, we'll work with resistance bands to find that power, improve strength, range of motion and FEEL the arm movements that make this dance so powerful and energetic!
You'll need a resistance band, preferrably medium strength. THESE are similar to the one I'll use in class.
This workshop was recorded live.
