About This Video
Welcome to the Broche Ballet Speed Barre, a high-energy 38-minute session designed for the dancer who is ready to move. This isn't your average slow-paced technique class; here, we focus on the philosophy of less instruction and more dancing. By picking up the pace, we challenge your muscle memory, cardiovascular endurance, and technical precision in a way that mimics the demands of center work and live performance.
Throughout this intensive barre practice, you will navigate a comprehensive series of exercises including deep pliés, fluid ronds de jambe, and challenging fondu sequences. The Speed Barre format minimizes the downtime between combinations, requiring you to maintain active core engagement and proper alignment even as fatigue sets in. We pay special attention to the control required for enveloppé and développé movements, ensuring that increased speed never comes at the expense of proper form or placement.
Key technical focuses include maintaining a soft bend in the elbow during fondu and ensuring the knee does not lock out during cloche and rond de jambe patterns. You will work through both sides of the body, refining your passé and en dedans rotations with a focus on stability and speed. This class is perfect for dancers looking to break a sweat while sharpening their technical execution.
By the end of this 38-minute session, you will feel more grounded, agile, and prepared for the rigors of advanced ballet. Join Broche Ballet for this invigorating technical challenge and take your barre work to the next level.
