🩰 Back by Popular Demand!
Miss Emma invites you back to the barre for another beautiful evening of technical ballet — and this time, we are learning three complete sequences.
Whether you joined us last time or this is your very first class, Join Us at the Barre is designed for older teens and adults who love ballet, want to move gracefully and beautifully, and are looking for something genuinely wonderful to do with their evening.
No auditions. No pressure. Just ballet, done properly, in a warm and welcoming space. 🌟
🎼 What We’re Working On This Session
This workshop is structured around three distinct sequences, each one a different facet of classical ballet technique:
Adage — slow, sustained and lyrical. Adage develops your balance, control and the long, flowing lines that make ballet so beautiful to watch and to feel. We will work through a graceful sequence focusing on port de bras, développé and arabesque, movements that require patience, poise and presence.
Allegro — the joyful, quick-footed side of ballet. Allegro sequences involve light, lively footwork, small jumps and quick changes of direction. This is where ballet becomes genuinely fun, energetic, musical and surprisingly addictive!
Dance Variation — a short, polished choreographed piece that brings everything together into a complete performance sequence. You will leave with something you can practice at home, remember and build on. 🌟
