Dancer Stretch Class on Summer Break

Hi everyone, its Rya, your Dancer Stretch instructor.   Thank you for a wonderful spring season and supporting my new class. I will be taking a summer break from my Dancer Stretch class, returning Monday, August 5th. If you’ve been attending my class, I hope you enjoy your summer off and know that I am taking this time to rejuvenate and work on some new dancer stretch ideas and lesson plans. I cannot wait to share my new material and restart the class with you this fall.

A fun all body workout, focusing on correct posture, upper body and arm strength.

Entry requirement: some previous experience of veils helpful.

 

WHAT YOU NEED
Two veils – She recommends silk or imitation silk semi-circle cut. But any veils will work! The effects will be slightly different depending on weight and size.  Bring a pair of socks or dance shoes for spinning.

Here’s a tip! Take GINGER before class to reduce dizziness during turns!
