Beginner Barre for Musicians

DANV-113

In this class, students will gain strength and knowledge of their bodies through barre movements and ballet positions, as well as yoga postures and Pilates movements, all set to contemporary music. Vocal warmups, proper ballet postures, and breath technique will be incorporated into each session. Core strength training and proper alignment and movement will help the singer achieve a supported, relaxed sound and performance. Students will be expected to perform barre method techniques while singing by the end the semester. They will create their own series individually and teach their series at the barre to fellow classmates.
