About This Video
Welcome to Artistry Barre with Broche Ballet, a comprehensive 43-minute session designed to help you move beyond the technical mechanics of dance and tap into your inner artist. This class is uniquely structured around a lively and engaging music album, encouraging dancers to find the rhythm and melody within their movements. Throughout the session, you will be guided through traditional barre exercises with a specific emphasis on musicality and breath.
From the initial pliés to the final pirouettes, our instructor focuses on how the eyes and breath can elevate a simple sequence into a true performance. You will work on technical staples such as the développé, ensuring correct placement to the front, side, and back, as well as dynamic battement cloche sequences that challenge your core stability and rhythmic timing. One of the highlights of this class is the focus on letting the eyes match the music.
This subtle shift in focus is essential for developing genuine stage presence, helping you appear more connected and expressive during complex combinations. You will also practice intricate sequences involving temps lié, passé, and glissade, culminating in a series of piqué turns and finishing poses that demand both precision and grace. At Broche Ballet, we believe that technique is the foundation, but artistry is the heart of the dancer.
Whether you are working on your arabesque line or perfecting your port de bras, this Artistry Barre provides the space to explore your musicality in a supportive online environment. Join us to refine your technique while rediscovering the joy of dancing to beautiful music.
