PINK PILATES is offered at NO COST for women recently diagnosed with breast cancer, recovering from surgery, or in ongoing treatment.

The workshop includes a weekly class that offers rehabilitative help in the breast cancer recovery process; inspiring hope and restoring movement. The class offers a specialized program; one that focuses on gradually increasing range of motion through the shoulders and strengthening the back. Each session will help to gently stretch and strengthen the shoulder, chest, back, and abdominal muscles, allowing women to regain and/or maintain a full range of motion to those areas affected by breast cancer and surgery.

The weekly classes are held in Ballet Austin’s beautiful center for dance and community wellness located at 501 W. 3rd St in downtown Austin, a non-medical, happy, mainstream environment that allows for encouragement and rehabilitation.

We look forward to being a part of your full recovery*.

If you have never taken a hip hop class and want to learn more about the movement, culture and terminology, give this class a try!

In a foundations class we focus on learning individual movements and techniques instead of choreography combinations. There so many different styles of Hip Hop Dance (grooves, popping, house, etc.). In this installment of Foundations, you will dive deep into the foundations of  POPPING! Come join us and learn something new!

 It is never too late to learn something new and hip hop is tons of fun for all ages!

This workshop is designed to introduce adults (and teens age 16 and up) to the Hip Hop culture and dance. The focus is to build a solid foundation to execute popular dance moves. So come on adults and let’s get moving to pop and hip hop music. 

This workshop is intended for the Beginner/Intermediate level dancer who wants to focus on adagio and improve their techniques.

When taking a drop-in ballet class, there is not always the luxury of time and individualized attention to focus on ballet fundamentals—this workshop will give you the time to fine-tune some of these fundamentals!

*It is recommended that participants take the Beginner 2 level drop-in ballet class scheduled right before this workshop.
