About This Video
Take your training to the next level with our Power Barre class at Broche Ballet. This comprehensive 42-minute session is specifically designed to bridge the gap between static exercises and the explosive energy required for jumps and turns in the center. Whether you are working toward grand allegro or sharpening your pirouettes, this class focuses on the mechanics of power, speed, and precision.
Throughout this session, our instructor guides you through a series of demanding combinations that emphasize the importance of a deep, controlled plié and a sharp relevé to build the muscular endurance required for high-level stamina. We dive deep into sequences that challenge your body control and stability, focusing on maintaining a strong core and aligned shoulders even during high-tempo movements. You will practice specific work involving passé and arabesque to find your center of gravity, ensuring every movement is executed with intentionality.
A unique feature of this class is the focus on preparation for cabriole landings. By keeping the leg lower and focusing on the brush and the strike, you build the specific strength needed for stable, safe landings. This attention to detail is what sets Broche Ballet apart, as we prioritize the technical mechanics behind every movement.
In addition to lower body strength, this Power Barre class addresses upper body alignment and shoulder control. Proper carriage of the arms is essential for maintaining balance during turns and creating the lift needed for jumps. By the end of this class, you will feel more grounded, powerful, and ready to tackle the most demanding aspects of ballet technique.
Regular practice of these exercises will lead to significant improvements in your overall dance performance, stability, and stamina. Join us at the barre and discover the power within your technique.
