Full-Length All-Level Ballet Barre with Julie

Elevate your daily practice with this comprehensive 60-minute all-level Ballet barre class at Broche Ballet. Designed to build a strong foundation while challenging your precision, this session guided by Julie focuses on the essential building blocks of classical technique. Whether you are returning to the barre after a break or looking to refine your current form, this class provides the professional structure needed to improve your artistry and physical strength.

The class begins with a focused warm-up, emphasizing the correct alignment of the plié. You will learn how to maintain proper posture while ensuring the knee tracks directly over the second toe, a vital skill for injury prevention and power. From there, the session progresses through various battement exercises, increasing in speed and complexity to improve foot articulation and core stability.

As the heart rate rises, we move into more dynamic movements such as the frappé and jeté. These exercises are crucial for developing the sharp, percussive footwork required for allegro work later in your training. Julie provides insightful cues on coordination and timing, helping you find the lift necessary for clean execution.

The technical portion also features a beautiful adagio segment, where we slow down to focus on the fluidity of the développé and the strength required to hold a steady passé. No ballet class is complete without testing your range of motion. You will work on your arabesque line, focusing on back strength and pelvic stability, followed by powerful grand battement to find your maximum extension.

Finally, the class concludes with a dedicated stretch and cool-down period. This time is essential for listening to your body and rewarding your muscles for their hard work. Join the Broche Ballet community and discover how a structured, professional-grade barre can transform your dance journey.
