Classes descriptions:

Ballet:

Cati Jean ’s Adult Ballet classes are based on the French Technique where she emphasizes on alignment, energy,  breath, dynamic, musicality and artistry. She is very keen to detail with a profound attention and care for each student.  She believes that Dance is Life and Life is Dance and bases her teaching approach on that philosophy.  

Classical Barre au sol (Floor barre):

This class is a thorough mind and body conditioning based on the principles of Traditional classical ballet. Its focus is on maintaining proper alignment, developing coordination, strengthening the feet, ankles, legs, back and core muscles while safely working on flexibility and hip rotations. Cati' s class also focuses on the constant awareness of breath and energy, which helps the dancers to achieve detail work, prevents injuries and re-centers the whole body and mind. Her 30 years of teaching worldwide makes her an expert with a keen eye, generous heart and fun spirit. Her classes are technical, artistic and profound. Cati has studied Barre au sol growing up in the South of France and took daily classes in Paris with her mentor, Jacqueline Fynnaert, Barre au sol professor at The Paris Opera with the Boris Knyazev method. 

*Please cover your legs and bring socks so you can slide. It tends to be a little cold in the studio in the morning, so add a sweater in your dance bag.

Modern Jazz (Beginning level): 

This class offers a simple warm up with isolations, stretches and the basic technique of Modern/Jazz, including across the floor and a combination.

You will learn how to move with fluidity, find your power, develop confidence, connect with music, rhythm and truly embrace your joy of dancing!
