New York Theatre Ballet to Host Pilates Classes, Beginning 7/7

New York Theatre Ballet (NYTB) is pleased to announce its new Pilates classes, beginning Tuesday, July 7, 2015 at NYTB's home studio, located at St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery, 131 East 10th Street, 2nd Floor, New York City. Classes will be offered on both Tuesday evenings, from 7-8pm, and Thursday mornings, from 8:15-9:15am. Cost will be $15/class walk in, $60 per 5-class card.

Taught by Amanda Treiber, principal dancer with NYTB, this gentle Pilates class is designed to build strength, coordination, and flexibility while gaining the understanding of the muscles used and the technique of the exercises. Combining the ideas of basic ballet and STOTT Pilates allows for many modifications that are used throughout the class to accommodate the most beginner level to the most advanced. This class is especially good for all types of physically active people who are looking to balance out the body in a gentle constructive way.

Originally from Jacksonville, Florida, Amanda Treiber has danced with Tallahassee Ballet and holds a BFA in Dance from Florida State University, where she danced Balanchine's In the Inn staged by Suzanne Farrell. Since joining New York Theatre Ballet in 2008, Amanda has performed works by Ashton, Cunningham, DeMille, Limon, Tudor, and Robbins, and has premiered many new works. In 2013, Amanda was invited to perform Jerome Robbins' Rondo at the International Ballet Gala in Managua, Nicaragua.
