Re: Ballet stretches, warm up and basic training - Chicago, IL

I live in Chicago and take ballet almost exclusively.  The one place that I know of that has good basic ballet would be Joel Hall, in Andersonville, off Clark, 2 blocks north of Foster.

I have known several teachers that have tried to start classes just as you describe: basic ballet stretches and warm-up.  However, it seems that their classes have never caught on in Chicago.

I'll ask around to see if there are any other places that offer what you're looking for.

Good luck!  balletboy
