Jumping at the barre has a purpose. 👀

Guest Faculty Fabrice Herrault uses this exercise to help dancers feel the dynamic of the jump, engage the back, and build strength through the movement. That same connection can carry into other steps, including pirouettes.

Sometimes a simple exercise can reveal a whole new feeling in your dancing. 🩰✨

Small details in the upper body can transform the movement. 🩰

Christine Shevchenko, Guest Faculty, reminds dancers to keep the shoulder blades down as the arms move through port de bras. Rather than leading with the shoulders, let the arms move underneath a stable upper body.

The result is a cleaner, more connected quality of movement. ✨

Kitri Variation: bringing the upper body into the choreography. 👀

Anya Ivanova coaches the dancers through the changing arm positions, alternating between the upper and lower arm to bring more variety, character, and playfulness into the variation.

It’s these details that give Kitri her unmistakable energy and personality. 🩰✨
