This class is specifically designed for experienced dancers who want to push their technical boundaries while maintaining the artistic grace of classical dance. We dive deep into complex combinations that challenge both the mind and the body, ensuring your transitions are as fluid as they are precise.
Throughout this 40-minute session, we focus on the fundamental principles of alignment and engagement. We begin with a detailed plié series, emphasizing the importance of keeping heels grounded and the standing shoulder connected to your core. As we progress to relevé work, you will learn to bring the heel forward and maintain a straight knee to build the necessary strength for center work.
The class introduces intricate adagio sequences and grand rond de jambe patterns that require a strong sense of balance and a long line from head to toe. You will refine your développé and arabesque positions, focusing on core stability and reaching through the working leg. We also tackle pirouette preparation at the barre, highlighting the coordination needed for controlled turns.
Beyond the physical steps, we explore the nuances of fondu and balancé, teaching you how to manage weight shifts with elegance. Whether you are looking to sharpen your technique for a performance or simply want a rigorous daily practice, these tricky combinations provide the perfect challenge.
