Requirements:
No tutu is required but a pair of socks and a chair would be enough to start. Some traction between the floor and the foot is helpful, if you have ballet slippers they usually does the trick, however, it is not necessary. In the videos I wear sneakers for dance teachers. Those are comfy as well:)
Who this course is for:
This course is for adults who wants to learn ballet technique and does not know where to start. This course would also be good for adults who have taking ballet many years ago and want to refresh their memory on ballet techniques.
