About This Video
Join Julie for a comprehensive all-level ballet barre class designed to refine your technique and improve your functional flexibility. This full-length session at Broche Ballet guides you through a classical progression, starting with a thoughtful warm-up that transitions into essential barre work. You will practice foundational movements including pliés, grand pliés, and tendus, all while maintaining a focus on proper alignment and posture.
A key highlight of this class is the dedicated work on the lower body. Julie emphasizes the importance of lengthening the hamstrings and opening the hip flexors to achieve a greater range of motion. You will learn specific techniques for deepening your stretches and using floor pressure to release leg muscles, which is vital for both injury prevention and aesthetic line.
In our relevé exercises, we focus on the controlled lengthening of the heels, ensuring a strong and stable base for more advanced center work. Throughout the class, Julie provides cues on port de bras and parallel positions to ensure your upper body is as engaged and graceful as your footwork. Whether you are looking to solidify your basics or find more depth in your stretches, this class offers the tools you need to progress.
Experience the Broche Ballet approach to adult ballet, where we prioritize anatomical awareness and artistic expression in every movement.
