Elevate your pointe technique with this intensive session focused on the Prix de Lausanne Part 3 combination. At Broche Ballet, we believe in bringing professional-level training to your home studio, and this 2nd pointe combo is the perfect challenge for dancers looking to refine their precision, strength, and artistry. This tutorial breaks down a complex sequence that demands both technical power and fluid movement.
The combination begins with a focus on piqué and passé movements, requiring the dancer to find immediate balance and turnout. You will work through a series of piqué transitions, focusing on the sharp placement of the foot and the stability of the supporting leg. As the sequence progresses, you will integrate plié and sous-sous, emphasizing the importance of a clean fifth position and tight transitions en pointe.
One of the key technical challenges in this tutorial is the integration of the pas de bourrée with pirouettes en dedans. We break down the coordination needed to transition from a dynamic lunge into a controlled turn, ensuring you maintain your alignment and core engagement throughout. You will also practice the fondu, which adds a layer of depth and grace to the athletic movements of the combo.
