Exercises Across the Floor

The amount of exercises is up to skill level and time. Do each exercise on the right and left side. Exercises can be simple or can combine several skills into one trip across the floor.

1. Kicks- A simple combination of step kick will do. For a more advanced group, add directions like side and back kicks.
2. Leaps- Start simple with grand jetes then continue with switch leaps, center leaps, reverse leaps, calypsos, axles, and switch center leaps.
3. Turns- Pique and chaines should be done across the floor. Pirouettes can be done in the center or in a moving exercise. Fouettes should then be done in the center if group is advanced enough.
