Welcome to the official Train Like a Ballerina (TLB) Community!

Starting ballet as an adult doesn’t begin with perfect skill. It begins with strong foundations.

One of the biggest misconceptions about doing ballet as an adult is that you need years of experience before you can step into class.

In reality, beautiful technique is built from the basics - posture, alignment, balance, strength and movement control.

That’s exactly why Train Like A Ballerina created Graceful Start.

This 2-week programme is designed specifically for adult beginners, helping you develop the physical qualities that support ballet from day one.

Through short, progressive sessions combining ballet, floor barre and ballet-specific conditioning, you’ll build the confidence to move well before progressing to more challenging classes.

Over 14 days you’ll develop:
• Ballet-specific strength
• Balance and coordination
• Posture and alignment
• Mobility with control
• The foundations of ballet technique

Each session is around 30 minutes, making it easy to train consistently while allowing your body time to adapt and learn.

Train Like a Ballerina believes ballet is a skill - not simply a workout. Progress comes from purposeful practice, not perfection.

If you’ve been waiting until you feel “ready”, this is your reminder that the best time to begin is now.

Want to improve your middle splits?

Start training smarter, not just harder.

A deeper middle split isn’t only about “stretching more.”

It requires a combination of:
• Hip mobility
• Inner thigh flexibility
• Active control through your range
• Teaching your nervous system that new positions are safe

These 5 exercises are designed to help dancers open the hips, improve mobility, and build confidence in their split position - step by step.

Remember: flexibility is a skill you train. Consistency, patience, and quality movement create the biggest changes.

Save this for your next flexibility session and try adding these exercises into your weekly routine.

Three studios.
Three days of filming.
One extraordinary ballerina.

A small glimpse behind the curtain of what it takes to build a Master Trainer program inside the Train Like a Ballerina app.

🎬 The full behind-the-scenes film is now live on YouTube: Train Like a Ballerina

Building a program inside the Train Like a Ballerina app is a process that takes years.

It begins long before the cameras come out - with collaboration alongside leading sports scientists for dancers, studying the biomechanics behind the goal and designing the most effective way to train it.

From there comes the meticulous work.
Every exercise is carefully selected.
Every movement is tested.
Every description is written so dancers understand exactly how to execute it.

Then we begin filming with our Master Trainer Iana Salenko.
We spent a full day capturing her 150+ exercise library for the app.
The following day was dedicated to filming the follow-along workouts, recording an interview with Iana, and capturing the photography you see throughout the program.
Then came an entire day recording guided training audio, so every exercise can be coached step by step inside the app.

After filming finishes, another major phase begins.
Uploading every exercise into the backend.
Building the workouts.
Assembling the full program.
Testing and trialling it with dancers.
All so that when it finally reaches you, it delivers the most intelligent and effective training possible for dancers.

This process has been unfolding for the past couple of years.
And on Wednesday, we’re incredibly excited to finally release it to you with the launch of the Higher Extensions Program inside the Train Like a Ballerina app.

Tomorrow we’ll also be sharing a full behind-the-scenes video on our YouTube channel, giving you a glimpse into what it takes to bring something like this to life.

For years, dancers have been told that higher extensions come from stretching deeper.

Oversplits.
Theraband tricks.
Forcing the leg higher.

But extension isn’t built through passive flexibility alone.

It comes from strength, control, and training the right muscles in the right way.

That’s exactly what we’ve built with Iana Salenko.

Inside this 6-week science-backed program, you’ll learn how to train extensions the way professional dancers do. Developing hip strength, standing leg stability, active mobility, and the control needed to actually hold your leg in adagio.

Alongside the program, you’ll also gain access to:
• Iana’s personal pre-warm-up, warm-up, and cool-down routines
• 150+ dancer-specific exercises designed to build stronger technique
• guided workouts that teach you how to execute every movement correctly

This isn’t about forcing range.
It’s about building extensions that are higher, stronger, and sustainable for your body.

The program launches Wednesday inside the Train Like a Ballerina app.

Early access is now open. Link in bio.
