What all do you need for ballet?

I'm not talking about what to wear...I'm talking about strengths. I did ballet for 2 years, but that was around 4 years ago. I need to get back in shape for ballet, because I am taking it up again. I can't wait!



I have a pretty strong arch (which could be stronger), back, and feet.



Thanks a bunch.



Peace

Well, pretty much EVERYTHING needs to be strong for ballet. Calves and feet for releve, hamstrings and quads for leaps, hamstrings for developes, grande battement, small jumps, and plies, core muscles for balance, leg height, turnout, and just about every stpe in ballet, butt and inner thighs for turnout, tendues, and de gas jays (sp?), and back for arabesque. Your arms should also be decently strong but also flowy and graceful.

Work on your legs, abs and arms. Your abs form your core and help you to keep control and stable during movements. Hope this helps a little! :)
Strong core muscles are essential. Taking some pilates classes would definitely be to your benefit.
HAAAMMYYSTRRINNGGYYY well to me thats my priority.



Rotation muscles quads back(which u said u had) and hamstring which is really really hard to strengthen but u need to .Ask ur physio for some excercises
Just make sure you have the basics down and you will be fine. Good turn out, good pointed feet/Relev茅, sharp d茅gag茅s, Nice high Grand Battements with straight legs, strong arms, know where your center is at all times, and good leg support from underneath the leg not on top. But just enjoy the art of Ballet and dance with your heart! :)
practice everyday and just be like dedicated and stuff
A strong core is essential for ballet (try pilates). Quads and hamstrings also need to be strong and flexible.
practice and you will build up the right muscels :)
flexiblity- be able to do a split



turnout- do the froggy stretch, rond de jambes, plies etc



strengthen muscles- grand battements and developays also ankle weights



ankle strenght- heel rises continuosly( i do 100 a day in every postion), and pointe ur feet every day and you a thera band when u pointe ur feet



hope it helps!
