Melissa Miles "Contraction" - Contemporary Online Dance Class/Choreography Tutorial

This is an across the floor combination working with pliés and contractions. You will be focusing on balance, strengthening your core, and pulling up through your torso.

Notes
  • Connect your foot to your knee at passé on the first two contractions.
  • Travel on the walks so you can cover more space. This will give you practice on traveling when you dance.
  • Keep your chest pulled upon with plié in 2nd position. Drop your pelvis straight down without pushing it back.
  • Pull your abs to the back of the spine on your contractions without dropping your shoulders too far forward.
