Wednesday was the day before Thanksgiving, and it was a teachers compensation day from conferences (we work 1.5 days for two days to accommodate conferences, then have the day before Thanksgiving off).
I attended at Barre class. I've always wanted to try, so I was happy when I saw a class scheduled for that day.
It was a decent workout. Here are things that are different from a regular ballet class.
OK, it isn't really like a ballet class at all, except that you do hold a barre and do some tendu/leg points and battements/kicks.
But it was fun, and the music is modern and fun.
We used these big, squishy balls as resistance between our legs that I was certain I would pop with my thighs, but somehow I didn't.
I'll be looking to do this class again. I just need to find a night I can go.
Oh...and the BEST thing? Because I coach gymnastics at the Y, I get a free membership. And classes are included in the membership. So the class was free!
