About This Video
Elevate your technique with this comprehensive Advanced Ballet Center class from Broche Ballet. This session is meticulously designed for seasoned dancers looking to refine their turn precision, control, and stamina. We begin by diving deep into the mechanics of the pirouette, focusing on the critical elements of speed and recovery.
You will learn how to maintain your axis and momentum even after a quarter turn, ensuring you stay up and centered throughout the movement. The lesson progresses into challenging drills that specifically target pirouettes and fouettés. We explore the nuances of a smooth takeoff from a deep plié, emphasizing the importance of a strong push and a clean passé position.
Our instructor provides detailed guidance on leg placement, from the initial fondu to the final landing, ensuring that every movement is executed with grace and technical accuracy. Beyond turns, this class features a sophisticated adagio section incorporating précipité. This helps dancers develop fluidity and strength in slow, controlled movements, balancing the explosive power needed for jumps and turns.
You will also work through a dynamic waltz sequence, practicing complex footwork that includes chassé and tombé transitions into an elegant arabesque. Throughout the session, the instructor offers real-time feedback and encouragement, reminding you to stay focused and calm even during the most demanding combinations. Whether you are working on your doubles or perfecting the timing of your soutenu, this class provides the tools and motivation needed to reach the next level of artistry.
