You will focus heavily on maintaining proper alignment and core engagement, ensuring that even as the tempo increases, your technique remains uncompromised.
Key exercises like développé and petit battement are performed with an emphasis on control and coordination. We also utilize the en croix pattern to ensure balanced muscle development. In addition to the physical challenge, this class serves as a mental exercise in concentration and timing.
You will learn to coordinate complex footwork with breath, keeping your shoulders down and your energy high. Whether you are looking to build stamina for longer variations or simply want a rigorous daily practice, this high-intensity barre session provides the perfect environment to push your limits.
