Our first ever Summer Pointe Intensive @c_unit_studio is well underway and I couldn’t be more excited!
Pointe Tip: You need strong toes to dance on pointe, but this exercise will help prepare you. All you need is a resistance band to try it out.

Want better turnout? Higher extensions? Sturdier turns?
Get a Resistance band and try out this exercise! Miss Kathleen’s turnout exercise isolates and strengthens the muscles surrounding your hips.
For best results, do this exercise every day, go slow and hold for 8 counts each time. Do as many as physically possible, adding a couple more each day.
For a more intense workout use a thicker band. Medium and Heavy bands work best.

Looking for a fun way to improve your back strength and flexibility?
Try this exercise!
I call it the rocking horse because in order to keep rocking, you will need to maintain the curve in your back just like a rocking horse or chair. Keep your knees straight and kick them up to the ceiling instead of forward, over your head.

Tip: Use a yoga to add a little cushion. Your hip bones will thank you.
