About This Video
Elevate your training with this Intermediate Pointe class from Broche Ballet, specifically designed to build confidence in center work. This session follows a comprehensive structure, starting with a targeted barre warmup that focuses on the precision required for intermediate-level pointe work. By emphasizing the correct articulation of the feet during plié and relevé, you set a strong foundation for the demanding center combinations to follow.
The core of this lesson explores the rélevé passé, a fundamental movement that serves as the building block for successful pirouettes. You will learn how to coordinate the upward phase with a strong retiré position while maintaining a stable core and squared hips. Our instructor breaks down the mechanics of the transition, showing you how to use the working foot to land securely from a passé position.
Beyond the passé, the class incorporates pas de bourrée, coupé, and piqué movements to enhance your fluidity and control. We focus heavily on the transition between positions, ensuring that every movement is clean and crisp. Through repeated practice of these turns and transitions in various directions, you will develop the muscle memory needed for effortless balance.
This class is perfect for dancers looking to move away from the barre and achieve a more professional, controlled performance en pointe. Join Broche Ballet and take the next step in your pointe journey today.
