About This Video
Step up to the barre with Broche Ballet for an intensive 51-minute Advanced Ballet Barre session designed to challenge your precision and stamina. This class is meticulously structured to push intermediate and advanced dancers beyond the basics, focusing on the nuances of alignment and the fluidity of complex movements. We begin with a thorough warm-up of pliés and tendus, establishing the grounded connection necessary for the more demanding exercises that follow.
Throughout the lesson, you will work through a series of rigorous dégagés and frappés, emphasizing sharp footwork and stability. The instructor provides detailed corrections on body positioning, ensuring that every fondu and enveloppé is executed with the correct melting quality and controlled extension. Special attention is given to tombé sequences, helping you master the art of weight transfer without losing your core engagement.
As an advanced practice, this video also delves into the technicalities of pointe work preparation, even if performed in flat shoes, by focusing on the strength needed for high relevé and sustained balances. You will explore intricate combinations that include grand battement and complex port de bras, challenging your coordination and artistic expression simultaneously. At Broche Ballet, we believe that advanced technique is built on a foundation of constant refinement.
This workout encourages dancers to focus on the 'why' behind the movement—breathing through the transitions and maintaining a tall, supported posture. Whether you are preparing for a performance or simply looking to maintain your professional edge from home, this class offers the depth and duration required to see real progress in your dance journey.
