Back to Dance Classes in Dubai: Getting Ready After the Summer Holiday!

We hope you’ve had a fantastic summer filled with fun, sun and maybe even a little dancing! As the holiday season winds down, it’s time to start thinking about getting back to our beloved dance classes. We’re so excited to welcome you back to the Academy and see all your smiling faces ready to leap, twirl and groove again.


Returning to dance class after the summer holidays is a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with friends, learn new skills and continue your dance journey. To ensure you’re prepared and in tip-top shape for our return, we’ve put together some tips and activities to keep you moving and excited about dance during the last few weeks of your break. Let’s get started!


Stretch it Out


Flexibility is key for every dancer. Spending some time each day stretching is essential to maintaining your flexibility. Focus on your splits, backbends and other stretches that you love. Regular stretching will help keep your muscles limber and ready for those challenging moves when you’re back in class. Stretching routines not only prepare your body for the physical demands of dancing but also help prevent injuries.


Practice Basic Moves


Revisiting the basics can help you stay sharp and maintain your technique. Whether it’s pliés, tendus or basic hip-hop grooves, practicing your foundational steps will keep your muscle memory strong. These basic movements are the building blocks of more complex routines and are crucial for any dancer. By dedicating time to these essential moves, you’ll ensure that you’re ready to tackle more advanced techniques with confidence when classes resume.


Watch and Learn


There’s so much you can learn from watching others. Find dance videos online or watch dance movies for inspiration. Pay attention to the techniques and try to mimic some of the moves. Observing professional dancers can provide you with new ideas and insights into different styles and techniques. It’s a great way to stay connected to the world of dance and to find inspiration for your own performances.


Stay Active


Keeping your body active is important for maintaining your fitness level. Play outside, ride your bike, go swimming or play a sport. All these activities help build strength and stamina, which are crucial for dancing. Staying active also helps improve your coordination and overall physical health, which will benefit your dancing. Engaging in a variety of physical activities can make your return to dance class easier and more enjoyable.


Set Goals


Think about what you want to achieve in your dance classes this year. Setting goals can be a great motivator and help you focus on what you want to improve. Whether it’s perfecting a pirouette, mastering a new routine or simply having more confidence in class, having clear objectives can guide your practice and keep you motivated. Write down your goals and review them regularly to track your progress and stay inspired.


Stay Hydrated and Eat Healthy


Good nutrition and hydration are vital for dancers. Drinking plenty of water and eating a balanced diet with lots of vegetables ensures that your body is properly fueled for dancing. Proper nutrition supports muscle recovery and overall health, while staying hydrated helps maintain your energy levels and prevents fatigue. Make sure to include a variety of healthy foods in your diet to support your physical activity.


Get Your Dancewear Ready


Before classes start, make sure all your dancewear is in order. Check your dance shoes, clean your leotards and make sure you have everything you need. Having your dancewear ready not only saves time but also helps you feel prepared and confident. Properly fitting and well-maintained dancewear ensures that you can move freely and comfortably during your classes.


Getting back to dance class after the holidays is the perfect time to reignite your passion for dance, catch up with your dance friends and continue growing as a dancer. Remember, dance is all about having fun and expressing yourself, so keep that spirit alive as you prepare to come back to class. We can't wait to see you all again!
