Welcome to our ballet technique class, where you’ll strengthen your body and improve your balance! In this class, we’ll do exercises to develop balance, such as strengthening ankle strength and mobility, as well as practicing core support and engagement. In this class, balance is approached dynamically and integrated into dance by building strength and understanding how to use your core muscles.
The exercises in this course are done within the context of ballet, but practitioners of other dance styles are also welcome to join. The course is suitable for dancers of all levels; the level will be determined based on the participants.

Ida is a ballet instructor who is attentive and gentle and loves physical expression. Ida completed the comprehensive dance curriculum of the Basic Education in the Arts program at the Jyväskylä Dance Academy from 2004 to 2013, majoring in classical ballet and minoring in contemporary dance, jazz dance, and repertoire. She has also participated in numerous dance productions as both a dancer and a choreographer.
For Ida, dance means diving into her own body and, through that, connecting with the shared space. She considers the most important element of a dance class to be the focus on being in the same place and time: the momentary synchronization of bodies and the awareness of a shared physical experience. Through her teaching, Ida wants to help dancers experience their bodies as powerful and radiant.
