About This Video
Welcome to a vibrant week of online ballet at Broche Ballet! From February 12th through the 17th, our Zoom schedule is packed with technical rigor and festive celebration. This week, we are particularly excited to offer Valentine's Day-themed sessions that blend the joy of the holiday with the discipline of dance. Whether you are looking for a rigorous power barre or a lighthearted pantomime session, there is a place for you in our virtual studio.
Our week kicks off on Monday with a focus on foundational strength, featuring pré-pointe and a high-energy speed barre. For those just starting their journey, we offer an absolute beginner ballet barre to build your confidence from the ground up. Tuesday continues this momentum with our beginner ballet sessions and the winter beginner pointe cohort, alongside our popular dancers' daily follow-along barre routine.
Wednesday is the heart of our Valentine's celebration. Join us for a unique pantomime class focusing on the iconic Swan Lake love story, followed by a festive Valentine's-themed ballet barre in the evening. We will also dive deep into technique with a dedicated session for "Just Pliés and Tendus" and a specialized technique barre focusing on the precision of frappé and double frappé.
As we move into the latter half of the week, Thursday offers a choice between a morning power barre or an advanced ballet barre, followed by evening sessions for beginner follow-along barre and advanced centre work. Friday shifts the focus toward expression with our artistry barre and a much-needed flexibility and stretching class to recover and lengthen the muscles. Finally, we wrap up with our classic Sparkle Saturday, featuring our all-level ballet barre and the beginner pointe cohort. At Broche Ballet, we provide the tools you need to excel en pointe and at the barre, all from the comfort of your home.
