About This Video
Flexibility is a cornerstone of ballet technique, but finding the discipline to hold stretches long enough to see real progress can be a challenge. At Broche Ballet, we understand that a structured environment leads to better results for adult dancers. This 15-minute ballet stretching timer is designed specifically for those who want to maximize their flexibility gains through consistency, focus, and balance. This tool takes the guesswork out of your recovery and cross-training, allowing you to focus entirely on your form.
The session is intelligently structured to ensure your body receives an even workout. The timer provides a total of 15 minutes of guided stretching, split between the right and left sides of the body. This dual-structure is essential for dancers to prevent muscle imbalances that can affect your alignment at the barre or your stability during complex center work. Whether you are working on your splits, improving your arabesque line, or simply looking to release tension after a demanding pointe class, this timer provides the professional framework you need to stay on track.
To keep you focused, the video includes curated music and four crucial time checks. You will receive a notification when you are halfway through a side and another when it is time to switch. This allows you to settle into your favorite ballet stretches—such as a deep hamstrings stretch or a turnout-focused hip opener—without the distraction of checking the clock. By removing the mental load of timing yourself, you can focus entirely on your breath and the sensation of your muscles lengthening. Consistency is key in ballet; incorporating this timer into your daily practice will support higher leg extensions and deeper movements in your plié.
