BALLET FOR ADULTS
WELCOMING AND FUN SPACE
Have you ever wondered if Ballet was for you? We know that Ballet often carries paradigms and pressures, especially about who "can" or "can't" dance. At Rabaterapia, we believe that Ballet is for allwithout distinction of body or level of experience.
In this class, we will guide you to discover that you have all the potential to express yourself through dance in a light, fun and non-judgmental way. Our studio is welcoming and inclusive, allowing each student to explore ballet at their own pace.
If you're a beginner, returning to the world of dance, or just want to try something new, this course is for you! There's no pressure here - just a space to learn, challenge yourself and, above all, have fun.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Hi! I'm Gabi, the Flex teacher here at Raba, and now I'll be joining you for our Mini Ballet Course!
I am trained in Classical Ballet, Jazz and Contemporary Dance. After a lot of experience in different dance disciplines, I realized how inaccessible ballet can be sometimes because of the rigid standards and pressure on bodies.
That's why I decided to bring a more inclusive approach to my classes. Just like in my Flexibility classesMy focus is to create a space where each student feels comfortable, respected and able to explore movement at their own pace. For me, ballet is for everyone, and I'm very excited to show you that, yes, you can do it, too!
Being flexible, dancing and expressing yourself through ballet is something any body can do. Let's break these patterns together and have fun!
