Ballet/Pointe Barre for Pre-Company And Company
Welcome CDA Company and Pre-Company Students! Click on the photo to the left to be redirected to a home-adaptable ballet/pointe barre to keep you moving. This class is appropriate for all levels of Pre-Company and Company levels at CDA and pointe work should be adapted by each dancer to fit their level, floor surface, and available space. Ballet barre work is important for maintaining technique and progress throughout the season, even with social distancing! Please be mindful of your space and adapt movement as needed to avoid injury.
Contemporary Combination Tutorial
Click on the photo to the left to be directed to a tutorial of a contemporary combination choreographed by CDA's Renee Danielle Smith! The choreography is geared towards CDA Company Levels (AH-D) but can be tried by pre-company levels and Alumni as well! There is a separate video of the combination filmed from the front (listed below) that can be used as a reference if details can't be seen from the back in the tutorial. We would love to see current students, alumni, and CDA teachers post a video of themselves doing the combination in their home so we can create a montage of CDA dancers performing the same dance in their own homes. This class is a part of the CDA Virtual Class Series bringing dance education to your homes during the COVID-19 lockdown. We are looking forward to seeing your moves!
