With Pastor Lynn M Hayden
With over 50 years of dance experience behind her, Lynn has dedicated all her ballet, modern, jazz, and choreography technique to the Lord for His glory. She has performed with the Towson State University Dance Company, and the Ballet Theatre of Annapolis and and has been ministering, for the Lord, through dance, since 1986. Lynn is a well-known author of eight books on worship and prophetic dance, and producer of more than thirty worship dance DVD’s and administrates a successful on line ministry dance school. Lynn assisted the choreographer and danced in Integrity Hosanna’s music video “Sing Out” with Ron Kenoly; and has traveled, teaching Dancing For Him Conferences for over 20 years. As founder, director and administrator for the Dancing For Him ONLINE SCHOOL, Lynn is a gifted leader of leaders. Her graduates have grown substantially in their call to dance for the Lord. Many people mentored by Lynn, over the years, have successfully gone on to have their own dance teams, hold their own workshops, choreograph beautiful ministry dances and even write their own books. The school has enabled Lynn to perpetuate her legacy of transforming hearts and changing lives, through ministry dance. Many lives have been touched and changed by this unique, ministry. It is much more then just learning how to dance. Lynn utilizes the Prophetic arts as a means by which to minister the heart of God. Lynn also ministers in dance directly to the congregation with an anointing that breaks the yoke of bondage, heals and delivers!

BALLET/PILATES/STRETCH WORKOUT
Ballet Barre
Pilates (brief)
Stretch/Flexibility
BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE CLASS
This class will begin with about a 40-45 minute ballet barre workout, move into a brief Pilates segment (series of 5 and planks - core work) and finish with floor stretches.
Exercises will move right along from one to the next, with some explanations, leaning more toward beginner/intermediate level. It is for people who have had some ballet training before and are familiar with some basic terminology and positions, etc. However those with no training are welcome.
Note: If you have had no previous ballet or modern dance technique training, it is advised that you view/practice the Ballet I VIDEO and/or Modern Dance I VIDEO to familiarize yourself with some basic movement concepts.
Note: If you have had no Pilates technique training, it is advised that you view/practice the Pilates Basic Preliminary alternative VIDEO to familiarize yourself with some basics.
PILATES/STRETCH WORKOUT
You'll definitely want to strengthen your body and improve your flexibility, for worship dance (or any physical activity) through these 18 basic exercises (45-50 minutes), then flow into a nice, relaxing time of deep stretching, to improve flexibility!
The benefits are wonderful and numerous. To name a few: Core strength is one of the most important benefits of doing Pilates exercise, because all movement emanates from the core. If the core is strong, the appendages can move without undue stress on the spine. A strong core also helps to improve balance and coordination. Pilates helps to strengthen opposing muscle groups. This leads to overall improved flexibility. The whole body functions more efficiently. And so much more...
BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE CLASS
This class will move right along from one exercise to the next, with explanations. No previous training required. All are welcome!
Note: If you have had no Pilates technique training, it is advised that you view/practice the Pilates Basic Preliminary alternative VIDEO to familiarize yourself with some basics.
Here is a testimonial from someone who takes the classes regularly...

Stretch/Flexibility
Some Center Floor Work

BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE CLASS
This class will move right along from one exercise to the next, without a lot of explanations, leaning more toward intermediate. It is for people who have had some ballet training before and are familiar with some basic terminology and positions, etc. However those with no training are welcome.
Note: If you have had no ballet technique training, it is advised that you view/practice the Ballet I DVD to familiarize yourself with some basics.
After doing about 45 minutes of a fast paced ballet barre, we'll do some brief stretches on the floor. Then we'll do some center work (example, one (or two) of the following: adagio; turn practice; balance; jump combo; leap combo). Finally, we will review some of the steps that will have been taught during the Saturday class. If you are not in the Saturday class, this portion of the Thursday class will be learning all or part of a choreographed dance, which may possibly include flag/veil choreography.
MODERN DANCE TECHNIQUE/CHOREOGRAPHY (Saturdays)
Standing or Seated Warm Up
Standing Center Exercises
Floor Stretches and Exercises
Choreography (learning all or part of a dance, some sessions possibly with flag or veil choreography incorporated)
ALL LEVEL CLASS
This is an eclectic blend of Modern Dance styles or techniques based from Graham; Horton; Cunningham and Lynn Hayden's worship dance style. Though it moves right along with some explanation, it is designed for all skill levels. All are welcome.
Note: If you have had no previous modern dance technique training, it is advised that you view/practice the Modern Dance I VIDEO to familiarize yourself with some basic movement concepts.
Also Note: Tuesday classes tend to be more Beginner/Intermediate and Saturday classes tend to be more Intermediate/Advanced.
