About This Video
Looking to maintain your ballet technique on a tight schedule? Our Speed Barre class at Broche Ballet is specifically designed for dancers who need a thorough workout without the long explanations. In just 35 minutes, instructor Julie guides you through a comprehensive sequence that covers everything from initial pliés to challenging grand battements. This session is ideal for those who already have a baseline understanding of ballet vocabulary and are looking to put their skills into practice with a faster, more continuous flow.
Throughout this session, the focus remains sharply on core stability and upper body alignment. You will work through piqué movements where the emphasis is on keeping the rib cage quiet and the standing shoulder anchored. By minimizing the downtime between combinations, this class challenges your muscle memory and helps build the stamina required for longer variations. We move fluidly from the barre to center-style movements, incorporating turns and adagio to test your balance and control.
Beyond the technical rigor, this class celebrates the Broche Ballet community. This particular session features a special birthday adagio and port de bras, highlighting the supportive environment we cultivate. Whether you are preparing for a performance or simply want to stay in shape, this Speed Barre practice ensures that every minute spent at the barre contributes to better turnout, stronger relevés, and more precise execution. Join us for a session that respects your time while pushing your artistry to the next level.
