About This Video
Welcome to this high-energy Power Barre session at Broche Ballet. Designed for intermediate to advanced dancers who want to push their physical limits, this 53-minute class focuses on the explosive power and refined control needed for impressive jumps and turns. This isn't just a standard warm-up; it is a technical refinement session that challenges both your muscles and your mind.
We dive deep into fundamental movements with a "power" twist, focusing on the mechanics of flight and rotation. Expect intense work on the fondu to build the deep leg strength required for powerful takeoffs and cushioned landings. We focus heavily on relevé and passé to find the stable center necessary for clean, multiple pirouettes.
By engaging the core and glutes throughout the entire barre, you will develop the functional strength that translates directly to center work and allegro. The class also emphasizes precision and upper body carriage. We incorporate cambré and enveloppé to ensure your transitions are as graceful as they are powerful.
The instructor provides constant feedback on alignment, helping you refine your développé and à la seconde positions. Whether you are preparing for your next performance or simply want to elevate your daily practice, this Power Barre will leave you feeling stronger, more coordinated, and ready to take on the center with confidence. Experience the physical and mental benefits of a truly demanding ballet workout that bridges the gap between barre work and dynamic movement.
