"In my classes, I try to teach technique that is first and foremost based on the idea of classical ballet which I think is useful both for classically trained dancers but also if one is more into modern / contemporary dance works.
To work through the entire body one should also get a proper "workout" for stamina.
Footwork, breathing, coordination & the ability to move fast with precision in turned out & turned in material are also for me like yin & yang.
Completely different muscle groups has to work together to be able to use the body to its full extension. To take space in the room when one comes to the center & stage. It is 2024 & dancers should be equipped with good technique nevertheless to approach various jobs that requires technical skills but also to protect the body from injury.
