Program Details:

All of our programs in the New Season, New Heights series follow the same basic framework.

They were designed to be completed in order, as they progress in difficulty, intensity, and complexity from each one, though we’ve had Artistic Athletes perform them out of order without issue.

They all:

  • Provide up to 5 days of training per week.
    • Though can be adjusted to just 2-3 days per week
  • Can be completed in 30 minutes a day
  • Can be performed before classes as warm-ups, in between classes, or after class
  • Use the same app you’ve gotten use to
  • Require bands, but can include much more equipment if you wish

Level 2 – Focus on Petite Allegro (quick jumps) and Endurance

  • This program is still full body, but will work to build your overall conditioning and endurance, as well as speed and control for quick footwork
  • Option available for at home version though being able to perform some traditional “cardio” exercises is needed
  • This can be running, biking, swimming, stair climbing, or any cardio equipment (from elliptical, spin bike, rower, stair stepper, etc.)

Level 3 – Focus on Turns and Balance

  • This program shifts the focus and increases the intensity of the workouts. Movements become more complex and include a lot of balance and stability work
  • We do not perform numerous turns, but instead get to the root of turning, working on rotations control from the feet, hips, and torso so when you turn in class, you’ll feel more in control than ever!
  • At this time, there is not a specific “at home” version, though most exercises can easily be substituted for home equipment.

Group Information and Equipment Guidelines

Review the information below to find out which track is the right one for you. You can also watch this video that walks you through the options.

Once you have chosen your track you can submit the form at the bottom of this page. Select one and only one option, please.

Group 1:

If you have access to equipment such as free weights, any cardio equipment (rower, stairs, treadmill, bike, etc.), and other things common in a fitness center, “Group 1” is for you!

  • You could also run rather than use cardio equipment
  • Options to include steps, med balls, etc. included, but these are optional

Group 2:

If you’re primarily doing this at home, with resistance bands (though a few small weights can easily be added if you have them), but still can use stairs, bike, run, or have some cardio equipment access, select “Group 2”

Group 3:

Lastly, If you don’t like to run, and don’t have access to any cardio (no stairs, bikes, or lap pools) then the last option is for you! “Group 3”

  • You will still get cardio, but in the form of exercises, you can do in a single room. This option was made specifically for COVID and people who can’t easily get outside.

Group 4:

This program is made specifically for the demands of male dancers, taking into account some extra work for upper body to support partnering, extra stability for the lower back, etc. This option is similar to group 1 in terms of equipment need.

  • If you need a band only option, please consider the co-ed options of group 2 or 3.” If you need a band only option, please consider the co-ed options of group 2 or 3.

No track is better than the other, you will get results regardless. You can find more information about the equipment requirements for each track by scrolling down.
