About This Video
Start your day with intention and precision with our Daily Ballet Warmup at Broche Ballet. This 18-minute practice is specifically curated to prepare your body for the rigors of performance or a full-length class. Led by our expert instructors, this session focuses on the fundamental movements that form the bedrock of classical technique, including the plié, tendu, and rond de jambe.
We begin at the barre with a series of pliés. This essential movement is crucial for warming up the joints and finding your center. Throughout the exercises, your instructor will provide specific corrections to ensure you maintain proper alignment and a strong core.
We then transition into tendu sequences. Here, the focus shifts to the articulation of the foot and the smooth transition from a flat foot to a fully stretched pointe. By practicing these movements in a continuous flow, you will develop the strength and control necessary for more complex footwork.
As we progress to rond de jambe, the emphasis moves to hip mobility and the fluidity of movement. Executing a rond de jambe par terre requires a deep connection to the floor and a constant sense of turnout. Our routine ensures that you practice these movements on both sides, promoting even development and bilateral balance.
This is not just about the legs; a strong core and upright posture are essential for maintaining stability as you move through each position. Beyond the physical benefits, this warm-up routine incorporates proper breathing and relaxation techniques. By centering your breath, you can reduce physical stress and improve your mental focus, allowing for a more productive dance session.
Whether you are preparing for a rehearsal or just maintaining your daily practice, this routine provides the structure you need to excel. Join us at Broche Ballet and refine your technique through this comprehensive daily warmup.
