Ballet dancers need a strong lower body (foot and clalf) in order to be able to support their whole body on one foot and be able to dance on pointe. As for the upper body, they need to suck everything in, shoulders back, long neck, head high and long arms. Of course every dancer varies. Hope this helped :)

In an introductory ballet class, a ballet bar is used primarily for stretching and keeping balance. While newcomers to ballet are still honing their skills, they may need assistance using the bar.
Contempory ballet is a great style of ballet, but if you want to start contempory, it is best to go in a beginner class so that then you can establish some basic ballet skills before you move on to contempory, as in beginner classes, they usually work on basic ballet skills first, before really moving on to serious contempory. Watch some contempory dances on Youtube, and copy the way the dancer holds themselves, watch their armlines aswell and how their feet are turned out. When you know how to dance Contempory Ballet, you will probably want to join Classical Ballet aswell, as they come as a pair.
