Lyrical Loop
A warm-up for your spine, torso, arms and legs on one side, then repeated on the other. Slow music gives you room to breathe and reach past your limits.
It is a ballet-based exercise, so leg positions follow ballet. Arms can match the ballet shape too, or reach and stretch further.
Eight counts of eight, front to back and side to side. Keep your hips squared and your supporting leg strong. There are options at the end if you want more: a roll to the floor, or a tilt jump into a roll.
