2012 is rapidly approaching- a new year complete with a chance for a fresh start at making your life better, more enjoyable, healthier, and more connected to the world around you. What better way to achieve these goals than with a dance or movement class at World In Motion?
Studies on New Year’s resolutions show that if you want them to be successful, it is important to plan ahead when making them. Don't wait until New Year's Eve to think about them, but rather take some time to reflect on what it is that you want to achieve and how to do that. University of Scranton psychology professor John Norcross, PhD has done studies that show that “readiness to change, or how prepared a person is to enter the action stage of behavior change, to be the single best predictor of New Year’s resolution success.” (http://www.apa.org/monitor/jan04/solutions.aspx)
To help you be prepared for next year, we are offering anOpen House Week, January 2-8 during which you can try a class out to see if it is right for you, and thus plan better for your new year – new you resolutions.
Another factor in achieving resolutions is how affordable they are money-wise—something that World In Motion has a plan for as well! Try a class during our Open House week for 50% off the regular drop-in fee, and if you sign up for a class session while you are there, get 20% off your session fee as well.

A new year and a new chance for a new you who is more connected, stronger, fitter, and happier- are all waiting for you at World In Motion!
Ballet Barre Fitness is one of the exciting new classes coming to World In Motion in the new year, and we know you will love it!
Ballet Barre Fitness provides all over muscle toning, increased core strength and flexibility all in a low-impact workout. Exercises will be done at the barre to condition and stretch out your muscles. It is a great way to get a dancer’s body without formal ballet training. For anyone looking for improved strength and gracefulness, this class is a great choice. No previous dance experience is necessary- just a willingness to workout doing something new and exciting!
Ballet-inspired classes have been touted by celebrities for years as a fantastic way to sculpt long and lean physiques by tuning glutes, abs, obliques, and legs. The theory behid Ballet Barre Fitness is that it involves "micro-movements," in which movements are made just an inch or two at a time. Because you are holding the movement for prolonged periods, you lose momentum and must stay in the contraction longer which causes you to burn calories and build muscle more quickly than other exercise methods do.
Another important aspect of working at the ballet barre is that it is uses multiple muscles and joints to help you stay balanced, gain coordination and strength, and restore agility by building up the muscles of the torso and back- the core area so crucial in dance. So working at the ballet barre is an extremely effective way for dancers to improve their technique at their chosen genre of dance, be it bellydance, Bollywood, African or Hip Hop.
