It's agreed that everyone can always improve their balance! In this episode, Krista walks you through exercises that will help you improve your body alignment and subsequently, your pirouettes. To test your core and balance even more, we take our exercises to the block. Since yoga blocks are softer than the floor, your core has to fight harder for balance, while also battling the height.

Level: Beg/Int.
