5 exercises to strengthen and tone your upper body

Описание: Have you ever wondered what exercises or stretches you should be doing outside of the dance studio as part of your dance training?
Perhaps you're looking for some new movements to add to your own personal workout routine?

Join us as we walk you through 5 of our very own ballroom dancing inspired exercises that we use to strengthen and condition our bodies for training and competitions.


A brief summary of the exercises:

1. Arm circles with straight arms moving in a backwards direction.

2. Vertical climber stretches lifting arms straight over head and lifting the opposite heel and hip up as you reach to the ceiling.

3. Rib isolations with arms straight out to the side.

4. Lateral side squeezes in full ballroom frame (elbows out to the side and creating a 90 degree through the elbow).

5. Rotation twists in full ballroom frame.


We hope you enjoy this video and please join us in doing the exercises with us too!

Stick around till the end and we will perform all exercises in a continuous sequence to music.
