Imagine transitioning with confidence and ease. Forget the days of staggering into the next step or compromising technique for the sake of not tripping over your feet in a slow turn. Learn to "land" with intention, balance and grace which will set you up for smooth transitions in both lead and follow positions.
Often transitions can feel challenging simply because we are so focused on what is next, that we forget to focus on how to complete a step before beginning the transition into the next one.
Understanding which foot should be weighted, working on balance and feeling confident in your "landings" will help you ease right into your next step.
In this class, DeAnna shares practices to help you feel more confident in your technique and transitions.
With guided exercises and drills you'll feel challenged and ultimately amazing when you realize how great transitions can feel AND how to use transitions to help improve your overall dance technique!
