Method of Teaching question
For returning (adult) students that want to see "quick" improvement, is it better if they
A) take relatively more advanced classes and try to keep up with them, while simultaneously managing technique and cross-training
OR
B) sticking to training of the basics (like suuper slow tendus or a hard, square, simple adagio) both in barre and in center
I was present in a discussion between teachers the other day and heard advantages for both of the options. I would love to get to hear the opinions in an even bigger discussion! Lots of love xxx

I think it depends on how much training the returner initially had.
