Ballerina Body® sees ballet technique, beyond its artistic side, as a highly complete physical activity.

The basis of the relationship with ballet or other body techniques is to use what they have best to offer to the condition of each body, challenging and respecting it simultaneously. Not all exercises are good for every body. :)

Ballerina Body® anchors on this flexibility of thought to seek better ways to better bodies and better lives.
