Particularly over the summer it is nice to have a few simple exercises that are easy to remember. This particular series builds arm endurance and strength, and is good for a little light toning. It’s also versatile, allowing you to make additions, increase repetitions, or add hand weights when it becomes too easy. Make it a point to do it once daily and I think by the time you get back to a full schedule in the fall, you’ll see a difference in your ability to carry and maintain those arms throughout long barre exercises.

Who Is Behind Dance Advantage?

My name is Nichelle Strzepek and I started this site in 2008 after the birth of my son. There's more to that story, but before the stay-home mom/blogging gig, I spent over 16 years teaching dance in private studios, community programs, and at a public university. My enthusiasm for dance training and education is poured into this blog daily.

Dance Advantage hosts guest bloggers and a few columnists who contribute regularly. Otherwise, everything you see on this site is written, managed, edited, organized, and ardently supervised by me. You can learn more about me by reading and by visiting Nichelle...In A Nutshell.
