Progressing Ballet Technique

Additional Information

We are thrilled to be the only studio within a 2 hour radius that offers certified PBT classes

Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) is an innovative body-conditioning and strengthening program that has been designed to enhance students' technique in all forms of dance by focussing on training the

muscle memory required in each exercise in all forms of dance. PBT helps teachers around the world prepare their students to receive the strength they need to achieve their personal best . It is a

innovative program that helps students with core strength, weight placement and alignment .The program helps with injury prevention and rehabilitation and enhances the ability of athletes to perform at their best . It can be difficult for students to feel which muscles initiate the co rect

alignment in training. However , with the use of an exercise ball , the students gain a great sense of posture and weight -placement whilst fee ing each correct muscle group working throughout each exercise, which then stays with them whilst performing. PBT focuses on core strength, weight placement and alignment of the body with a gradual approach of carefully designed exercises and repetitions of these exercises that trigger their muscle memory. The program is designed with safe dance methodology to promote a long, healthy career . PBT is now being taught by over 6000+ certified teachers worldwide and over 4500 schools globally have added PBT classes in their curriculum for students. PBT is not only a program to improve technique in ballet dancers, it is now being appreciated and incorporated in  raining by all forms of dancers, athletes, physiotherapists and even football players
