Turnout Strength Class

Well, I certainly felt my turnout muscles during and after this class.

A little reminder: your turnout is initiated by the deep external rotators at the back of your hips. If you haven’t already, check out our Anatomy of Turnout class to learn more about what’s actually working.

As you move through this class, try to connect to those muscles rather than just forcing the feet or knees out.

Whether you struggle to hold your back leg turnout, maintain turnout as you travel across the floor, or keep it when the leg lifts in front, this is a great class to come back to again and again.

Dynamic Stretch Routine – Pre-Practice Warm-Up

Get your body primed and ready to dance. 
This short dynamic stretch sequence is designed to wake up your muscles, mobilize your joints, and prepare your body for movement – without over-lengthening or losing power. It can also be used as part of your daily mobility routine to keep your body feeling loose, strong, and ready to move.
