Hi Beauties!
Spring 2023 is here! Soak up the sun and gain a boost of energy by taking your workout outdoors!
Channel your inner ballerina with 3 moves that don't require equipment.
Plié: à la seconde (for inner thigh): Stretch your legs long and straight out of the plié, think of pulling up instead of locking your knees back. Imagine that you are trying to pull your feet together to activate your inner thighs, but your feet will not actually move. As you slide your foot along the floor into first position try to relax the muscles in the front of your thigh and only use your inner thigh muscles.
Relevé: Raise the body on two feet with the knees straight in first position. These are a great way to tone the calves and thighs while working your core and getting your heart rate.
Swan Arms®: Keep the neck long, chest open and your abs pulled in. Stretch the arms long and out to the side. Lower and lift the elbows. Remember don't lift with the shoulders. Lift up and out with the arms. Add a set of one-pound weights for challenge and extra burn!
What's your favorite outdoor workout?
Love,
The Ballet Beautiful Team
