its dance space and has incorporated a second

cornerstone Dance Studio in Carpinteria, and now includes two studios, a
large waiting/dressing area and the new 9th Street Dance Shoppe located at
4921 9th Street. Bonnie Curtis, owner of Curtis Studio of Dance states "The
new Annex Studio has allowed us to offer so many more diverse classes for
both children and adults. I am very excited about the direction the studio
has taken in the last year and look forward to being involved in many more
opportunities for dancers in our area."
In addition to the school’s regular student
program, the new expanded schedule now includes classes for adults including
ballet, tap, ballroom, hip hop, Bounce!, and Pilates.

The
Ballet Barre Workout is a blend of ballet, fitness and Pilates inspired
movements done at a calorie burning pace. This dynamic workout not only burns
fat and calories but will also tone and elongate your muscles, lift your
booty, slim your thighs and sculpt your upper body.
Develop
the length of a dancer and the strength of an athlete with our highly
effective 60-minute workouts. Each class follows a thoughtful sequence for
fast body shaping results and long term postural benefits.
As
dancers know, the ballet barre is a wonderful prop designed to support the
body in both static and dynamic movement leading to long, lean muscles. barre3
evolves the dancer's workout by combining the grace of the ballet barre with
the wisdom of
yoga and the strength of Pilates. Classes are set to an upbeat
soundtrack and follow a vigorous pace moving through a sequence of postures
designed to shape and lift the entire body.
Benefits:
-
Fast
body shaping results and long term postural benefits.
-
Builds longer, leaner muscles and a strong core.
-
Energizes and increases stamina.
-
Develops muscle balance leading to a well-proportioned body with less risk
for injury.
-
Increases flexibility and creates a natural flow to the body.
-
Precise instruction for each client improves results (without the cost of a
personal trainer).
-
Motivating group environment builds connections and community, both
important in making exercise a regular part of life.
-
Efficient 60-minute total body workout makes it easy to fit into a busy
schedule.
-
Connects mind, body and breath and relieves stress.
