About This Video
Elevate your training with Broche Ballet’s Advanced Ballet Barre, a comprehensive 48-minute session designed to challenge your core stability and refine your balance. This class is specifically tailored for experienced dancers who want to bridge the gap between technical barre work and the controlled power required for center pirouettes. Through a series of demanding exercises, you will focus on the precision, alignment, and fluid control necessary for high-level performance.
The class begins with intricate plié and tendu sequences to activate the deep stabilizing muscles of the core before progressing into more complex movements. You will work through intensive fondu and développé exercises that target both the strength of the supporting leg and the height of your extensions à la seconde. Our instructor provides detailed, professional corrections throughout, emphasizing the importance of proper technique in challenging movements such as penché en plié and the transition into a clean, high retiré position.
A significant portion of this barre is dedicated to turning drills and preparation. By practicing tombé and pas de bourrée at the barre, you will build the muscle memory needed for fluid movement in the center. We also focus on sustaining an elegant arabesque with correct alignment, ensuring your core is fully engaged to support your balance during shifts in weight. The inclusion of épaulment and cambré throughout the routine ensures that you maintain artistic expression while managing the physical demands of advanced ballet technique.
At Broche Ballet, we believe a rigorous barre is the foundation of every successful dancer. Whether you are training in a home studio or looking for supplemental practice, this advanced class offers the structure and feedback you need to see tangible results in your pirouettes and overall stability. Join us for this intensive practice and take your ballet technique to the next level.
