About This Video
Take your technique to the next level with this advanced ballet barre class from Broche Ballet. This session is specifically designed for the experienced dancer who is ready to move beyond basic mechanics and incorporate the artistry of épaulement and complex head coordination into their practice. Throughout this 44-minute session, we delve into 'tricky' combinations that challenge your muscle memory and spatial awareness.
The class begins with a comprehensive barre sequence, including refined work on grand plié, relevé, and cambré. We place a particular emphasis on the relationship between the head, shoulders, and gaze, ensuring that every movement is as expressive as it is technically sound. You will work through advanced fondu combinations that require stability and control, while simultaneously managing intricate changes in body directions.
Moving from the barre, the session transitions into center adagio work, allowing you to apply the coordination developed during the first half of class to slow, controlled movements in open space. The instructor provides detailed corrections on alignment and execution, helping you find a deeper connection to your turnout and posture. Whether you are looking to sharpen your transitions between croisé and effacé or want to master the nuances of head placement during fast-paced sequences, this class offers the professional-level guidance you need.
