Ball Conditioning for Dancers by Lisa Howell Pdf

A large exercise ball can be a dancers' best friend and is wonderful for assisting in developing deep core strength, however many people do not know how to use a ball properly. This course starts with the basics of core control and progresses to advanced exercises in an easy to follow way. Combining exercises on the stability ball with the principles of Pilates enhances your core activation and strength and stability through your pelvis and hips. You will also learn how to increase mobility and control of your spine, which will rapidly improve your overall strength for dance class. While some activation and isolation exercises are explored on the mat, we will also challenge our bodies in various positions in relation to the ball from very basic exercises to others at a high level. This two stage course will build towards a comprehensive set of exercises that you can use on a regular basis within your current training. This does not mean that you have to do all of the exercises in the book at once, but it will provide you with a good selection of new and challenging exercises to enhance your training. In the beginning, working on a ball can be very tiring, so picking just a few exercises to work on and perfect will provide the best results.This program is ideal for dedicated dancers who want to take their training to a new level, and who are wishing to develop the specificity of their dance conditioning exercises to support their class work.
