In this feature, we spoke to the lovely Yin Tan about what inspired her to start dancing as an adult and navigating the intimidating reputation that Ballet can traditionally have.
Q: How long have you been training like a dancer at BalletBody?
A: Back in 2019 my girlfriend and I were looking for new workout experiences. We decided to try the BalletBody trial classes. Been in love with it since!
Q: What made you want to start Ballet?
A: The beautiful images of real people doing ballet on BalletBody’s Instagram. The idea that Ballet is for everyone was relatable and not intimidating like the traditional Ballet schools. This was encouraging for beginners like me to take the first step.
Q: Do you have a favourite class type? If so, which one?
A: Basics. I love routine and always feel I can do better in my fundamental barre work. Over a period of consistent training I could see myself getting stronger and more flexible with the help of precise pointers given by the professional BalletBody instructors.
Q: Do you have any Ballet / Fitness goals in mind on your BalletBody journey?
A: I love a ballerina’s physique, but it’s all hard work so my goal is to step up my training frequency and to get out of my comfort zone to explore BalletBody Advance I classes.
Keep striving to be the best you can be Yin! We love having you in the studios!
