Mad Monday Belly Button Key



Mad Monday Belly Button Key

Last week I talked about the Belly Button Wall. Today I’m presenting the Belly Button Key.

Controlling the abdominal muscles can be challenging, and they have a tendency to be forgotten, especially when a dancer is thinking about so many other things. But abdominal control is crucial for good posture and technique so try the Belly Button Key.

It’s simple. Just pretend that your belly button is a keyhole. Now, put the key in and imagine turning it. Voila! Perfect abdominal control.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Ballet Secret #16ll:
“Imagine a belly button key.”
