Plain noteEase first. Control follows.
Who·What·WhyDancer · two-finger touch on the barre · clarity over force.

Reading the moment
Two fingers find the barre. Her frame lengthens. The jaw softens and the breath evens.

Why it holds
When the body reads calm, the work reads clean.

Put to work
Soften one point—jaw, hand, or shoulder—before you begin.

In your day
Drop your shoulders before you speak.
