About This Video
Elevate your technique with our specialized Double Barre practice at Broche Ballet. This session is uniquely designed for dancers who want less verbal instruction and more continuous movement. By focusing on high-repetition combinations—performing eight reps in each direction—you will build the functional strength and cardiovascular endurance required for advanced ballet repertoire.
The class structure emphasizes fundamental movements executed with extreme precision. We begin with foundational plié sequences to warm up the joints before moving into rigorous exercises like fondu and grand battement. The Double Barre approach ensures that you aren't just performing the movements once, but repeating them enough to build true muscle memory.
This repetition allows you to focus on the finer details: the articulation of the foot during a dégagé, the turnout of the supporting leg in an arabesque, and the fluid control of a développé. Stamina is a key focus of this class. By maintaining continuous movement across the 36-minute session, you will challenge your core stability and upper back alignment.
Our instructor provides targeted feedback on maintaining soft elbows and relaxed fingers even as the lower body works at maximum capacity. You will learn how to brush the foot correctly against the floor and maintain proper alignment during transitions, ensuring every rep counts toward better form. Whether you are preparing for a performance or simply looking to level up your home practice, this Double Barre session provides the consistency needed for technical breakthroughs.
At Broche Ballet, we believe that repetition is the key to mastery. Dive into this less talk, more dance format to see real improvements in your control, musicality, and overall dance fitness.
