GRADE 1 FLOOR EXERCISE

Our Principal & Ballet teacher Christina Roka has created a vocabulary from Pre-school ballet to RAD Intermediate Foundation level that can be used from all ballet teachers who want to enhance their RAD/ISTD ballet classes with free exercises & new ideas.
Her 20 years ballet teaching experience has led her to create her own ballet training system that combines elements of the RAD system as well as of the Vaganova system. She has created a written 'steps manual' for each level (8 levels) according to their physical, mental & emotional development as well as to the needs of ballet technique and its evolution.
Her methodology in combination with her deep knowledge in ballet technique, anatomy & music has led to the creation of this 'ballet steps manual' that all ballet teachers can use in their own creative way to compose exercises that are suitable for each level.
This is a sample floor exercise for 7 years old students that strengthens their static & dynamic posture, develops arms, head & eye coordination, different dynamics of arm movements as well as moving the arms together with the upper body.
'I have graduated from La Scala Academy School of Ballet Teacher's course and I found Christina's seminars very useful as they helped immensely to create exercises for non vocational students who attend classes twice a week. Her 'Ballet steps manual' has been created with a logical progression for each level and that has enhanced my student's technique.
