Jazz/Contemporary Warm-Up


I've been looking for new elements to include in my contemporary and jazz class warm-ups and came across this video that Dance Teacher Magazine featured back in September 2010 Technique: Shelia Barket: How I teach a warm-up. It's Shelia Barker's, a Broadway Dance Center teacher, jazz dance warm-up and includes some yoga-like poses (downward dog, squat) and is very relaxing. I know my students will love how it warms up the torso and back and helps all those muscles relax and prepare for technique.
