About This Video
Join Broche Ballet this President’s Week for an exciting and diverse lineup of live Zoom classes starting the week of February 18th! Whether you are focusing on your foundational basics or pushing toward advanced variations, our online studio provides the professional guidance and community support you need to reach your goals. This week’s highlights include our high-intensity Power Barre and Advanced Barre sessions.
Note a special correction for Thursday: while the calendar may have listed it as Center Barre, we will actually be diving deep into an Advanced Ballet Barre session specifically focused on advanced turning drills. This is a fantastic opportunity to refine your spotting, weight placement, and core engagement before taking those turns to the center. For those looking to explore the more expressive side of dance, Friday is Artistry Day.
In this class, we move beyond the mechanics of a plié or tendu to focus on stage presence and how to breathe life into your movement. Developing your artistry is essential for any dancer wishing to connect with an audience and find their unique voice on the stage. We are also continuing our focus on pointe work.
Our Saturday schedule features the Beginner Pointe Cohort (Week 3) and a Classic Ballet Barre in Center. Please note that our Thursday barre en pointe class is transitioning; the final Thursday session will be on February 27th before moving to our new Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday rotation. Practicing en pointe requires careful attention to posture and turnout, and our instructors are here to provide real-time feedback through the Zoom platform.
If you have set a goal to attend more classes this February, this is the perfect week to dive in. From Grand Allegro Fundamentals to Deep Dive Beginner Follow-Along Barre, there is a space for every dancer. We look forward to seeing you at the barre and helping you achieve your personal best in the studio!
