Start with plié
This exercise is for your legs and glutes. Plié, which means “to bend", is a traditional ballet exercise. It is one of the steps done in a ballet class. There are two types of exercises: a demi plié (small or half) and a grand plié (big or full). Give both a try. Begin with a demi plié in the first position. Your heels should be touching. Make sure your toes are pointed outward. Before you begin, engage your glutes and make sure your legs are straight. Next, bend your knees and go down only halfway. Continue to go all the way down till your glutes hover over your heels to do a grand plié. Perform this sequence for at least three sets.
Move on to jeté
This may seem like a simple exercise but helps to work your inner thighs. Jeté means to “to throw.” Both of your feet should be turned out and placed one in front of the other. The front foot’s heel should touch the back foot’s toe. Next, make sure your outside leg will go out to the side at 45 degrees. Continue doing this movement and alternate front and back. Do this on both sides for a minute each.
Finish off with leg circles
This exercise works to strengthen and sculpt your abdominal muscles. To do this exercise, sit on the floor and lean back as you place your hands behind you. Then bring your legs up to the tabletop. Next, circle your legs around. Start with the right side for 15 minutes and then repeat to the left side for another 15 minutes.
