1-Hour All-Level Ballet Barre with Julie: Master Your Technique

Refine your ballet technique from the comfort of your home with this comprehensive 1-hour ballet barre led by Julie at Broche Ballet. This all-level class is meticulously designed to help you build the strength, control, and precision necessary for beautiful dancing. Whether you are returning to the barre after a break or looking to polish your foundational skills, this session offers the detailed guidance needed to progress.

Throughout this practice, we emphasize the fundamental mechanics of movement. We begin with a focus on proper posture and alignment, ensuring that your core is engaged to provide a stable base for more complex exercises. As we progress through the barre, Julie provides clear instructions and corrections to help you maximize the benefit of every movement.

You will work through a series of exercises including plié and tendu, building up to more demanding steps like fondu and développé. A major highlight of this class is the focus on lower body control. You will learn how to keep your standing leg tall and your knee pointing to the side during fondu, ensuring proper turnout and stability.

We also tackle grand battement, teaching you how to push down through the floor to generate power and height while maintaining a tall upper back and relaxed shoulders. In addition to leg strength, this class emphasizes the importance of foot and ankle health. By practicing controlled lowering from relevé and working through sous-sous, you will develop the articulation needed for more advanced center work.

Julie’s encouraging teaching style makes even the most challenging combinations accessible, helping you to improve your form and execution with every repetition. Join the Broche Ballet community and take the next step in your dance journey with this empowering barre workout.
