Next up we have some short but effective exercises to build up core strength much needed for overall balance and torso strength needed to hold all those beautiful poses with ease!

Remember to include ample of rest days for effective training!!

Can't really practise dance at home due to lack of space or complains from neighbours (stamping)?? Don't worry you can do these short 3min leg conditioning workouts to strengthen your legs and hold your aramandis lower and for longer!

Do these diligently but remember to give yourself enough rest (at least 1 day) inbetween the workouts! Strength is established only when your muscles are allowed to rest and recover! Happy strengthening!!
