Ballet Class at home for beginners and advanced (Ballet barre workout) [Home class in 2020]

2:15 - Ballet class beginning (warmup, barre class preparation) with Bloch
7:38 - Plie
13:45 - warmup Tandu

I decided to film another barre routine but this time make it much more challenging by remembering the exercises and combinations my phenomenal teacher at Vaganova Lyudmila Valentinovna Kovaleva used to give us every day. Nowadays after completing this routine I wouldn’t need any center exercises or even jumps because my muscles would be not only warm but also quite exhausted in a pleasant way!

The music I’m using here is by Nate Fifield (c)

The story behind this is that I remember very vividly that we used to literally die during Lyudmila Valentinovna’s barres but we would also be getting so much stronger every day! Sometimes she could give us twice as much work and it was so useful but so hard! So thank you from the bottom of my heart, dear Lyudmila Valentinovna for giving me this knowledge!!!

And so you guys, if you’re looking for a more demanding class or just to try something new - I think this may be a barre for you!

Besides being an extraordinary ballerina, you are a very generous artist; thank you for your time and effort, your classes are invaluable.

This speaks to the importance of good tendu, literally the first half of this video is dedicated to that movement.
My students sometimes ask when they get to do the "fun" stuff. It's not as fun and can be dangerous if you don't have good tendu!

[lamplight]

She has such a solid way of dancing. The barre was so good :)

[yunonnelemora]

Me after the tendus: oh no this is too much I'm dying
And then realizes that there's still roughly forty minutes to go!
But I love this class so much!!! Now is a great time to challenge my body and train it to do more things :)) Love from the US

You are the most wonderful and generous teacher!! I love you and thank you for sharing your precious talent and time.

[jackiejaclynpowell]

So happy to be starting ballet again after a lifetime away! Even though my grand battements aren't very grand, they are improving. I like this class because it makes me feel like I'm dancing, rather than just doing exercises.

[drulisandra]

You are amazing! This ballet barre class is amazing too! It would be “super” if you post other video like this one please! Thank you so much Maria 💞
