About This Video
Elevate your ballet training with our "Fabulous 15" session, a high-energy, 15-minute nonstop pointework class designed for dancers who want to maximize their time at the barre. At Broche Ballet, we understand that maintaining strength en pointe requires consistency, precision, and focus. This follow-along practice is specifically structured to build the hip strength, balance, and control necessary for advanced movements and sustained center work.
Throughout this intensive session, your instructor guides you through a series of exercises that challenge your endurance and technical execution. We begin with a focused warm-up to prepare the feet and ankles before progressing into more complex combinations. You will work on fundamental movements such as the pas de bourrée and échappé, focusing on the mechanics of the hips to propel each movement. Proper alignment is a key theme throughout the class; you will learn to engage your core muscles and keep your shoulders down, even during demanding relevé sequences.
One of the unique aspects of this practice is the emphasis on landing techniques. Learning how to descend from a relevé with control is just as important as the rise itself. By focusing on the heel-to-cap connection, you will develop the stability needed for smooth transitions. As you move through the nonstop 15 minutes, the instructor encourages you to maintain your posture and breath, ensuring that every plié and rise is executed with grace and power. This class pushes you to maintain your technique even as fatigue sets in, which is essential for stage performance.
This class is perfect for the busy dancer who needs a quick but effective way to condition their feet and legs. Whether you are looking to refine your technique or simply want a challenging workout to add to your daily routine, "Fabulous 15" provides the structure and guidance you need to succeed. Join Broche Ballet today and feel the difference that 15 minutes of dedicated pointework can make in your dance journey.
