About This Video
Welcome to Broche Ballet’s Super Sweaty Speed Barre, a high-energy practice designed for dancers who want to push their technical limits and build cardiovascular stamina. This class moves quickly through traditional barre exercises, requiring dancers to maintain impeccable form while executing rapid transitions. We focus on the concept of "less instruction, more dancing," allowing you to find your flow and stay in the zone while refining your muscle memory.
Throughout the session, we move through a comprehensive series of exercises including pliés, tendus, and dégagés, with a specific focus on the precision of battements and the control required for beautiful attitudes. A key technical theme of this class is mastering rotation and balance, especially in positions like à la seconde and passé. We emphasize the importance of keeping the leg properly rotated and maintaining a strong, engaged core to support stability during quicker movements.
By minimizing long verbal explanations between combinations, this Speed Barre session forces you to rely on quick mental processing. You will practice your développé with control and work on your footwork to ensure clean placement even at a faster tempo. Whether you are preparing for center work or simply looking to increase your efficiency at the barre, this workout provides the perfect challenge.
Remember to maintain a straight spine and focus on your alignment as we transition between steps. Join us for this exhilarating session and feel the burn as you refine your professional ballet technique.
