? Audience: Parents who want to enroll their children in a ballet class for the first time. As a child I was very active in ballet. When I first asked my parents to let me enroll in a ballet class, they were skeptical. They weren’t too sure of what a ballet class consisted of or what kind of exercise I would have to undergo.

The tend exercise helps to warm up the achilles tendon and calf muscles. The French word tend means to slide the foot without lifting the toe from the ground while keeping both knees straight. Different types of tend us will be used in the class. The barre is also used to help the student build up their flexibility for advanced ballet techniques. These techniques help the student to eventually be able to dance on the tip of their toes, also called pointe.
Ballet helps students learn responsibility, organization, and discipline. These three elements help to develop character and leadership abilities. They can also help students to solve problems encountered every day.
