About this Event
WHAT
Ballet-inspired cardio, sculpt, stretch.
Led by professional dancer and choreographer Jennifer Nichols, this full-body workout combines the energy and athleticism of her signature Allegro Ballet Bootcamp with the controlled strength work of Développé Ballet Sculpt.
Expect a high-energy warm-up followed by strength and sculpting work using light weights and resistance bands, with plenty of focus on legs, core, balance, posture and muscular endurance. There will be plenty of pliés but set to a cool, contemporary playlist of pop, indie and rock anthems.
Come ready to sweat, smile and discover just how athletic ballet-inspired movement can be.
