Standards of Respect (As a dance educator, these are the rules and standards I enforce in my classes):
-
Respect for Authority (all teachers, staff, subs, administrators, etc)
-
Respect for Others (all fellow dancers)
-
Respect for the Space (and property)
-
Respect for Yourself (show up to class on time, prepared, and ready to do your very best. Make your future self proud of the work you put in today!).

ONLINE RESOURCES: Below you will find a list of online resources for ballet dancers, dance students, and dance educators (i.e. online ballet classes, pointe work, yoga, pilates, gyrotonics, etc). I thought it might be helpful to compile a list. Hopefully this will be a helpful tool for you as you explore ways to train from home.
