Barrework Level 3: Finis Jhung Ballet Technique Video
Finis Jhung and Glenn Keenan of
The New York City Ballet take you to Level 3 with barre exercises that
expand your range of movement and balance as you work from one standing
leg to the other. Certain exercises are timed to quicken the working leg
and foot, while demanding stability on the supporting side of your body,
