Classic mini Ballet Barre Workout | Lazy Dancer Tips
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 лип 2024
- Here you are a mini barre for you to warm up or take as a mini workout. It’s a general level barre that anyone can take. You can easily enjoy it at home in your lounge by using a chair.
🔴 Want to learn the basics of Ballet? 👉www.lazydancerstudio.com/ball...
Every ballet class starts with a good barre, but sometimes we haven’t got time to go to a full class or we want to do something extra during the day, maybe at home. This is a short version of a full barre where exercises are fused together in order to fit all the steps in and get the full benefit of a long barre.
The music I'm using is composed and played by Massimiliano Greco - Ballet Series 1 which album you can find and purchase here:

I have been doing your videos for 13 months now and I am in better shape then I was at 25. I have lost 80 pounds an I love the workouts. I am now 65 years old and keep doing ballet for a long time. Thanks, Alessia.
Well Done Mary! Proud of you! Ciao Alessia :)
i love this :') you're awesome go you!!
I was a professional dancer when I was younger. I'm 63 and starting modern dance again. You are an inspiration!
You are an inspiration! I am 48 and trying to get my posture straight again after being bent over from illness. Hopefully i can be straight and fit again.
👏👏👏👏Well done! 😊😊
55 year old man, visit the gym pretty much daily, not looking my age at all, but always looking for new workouts, especially to keep and gain mobility, flexibility and balance. Thank you.
Saving me during quarentine in Italy :-)
Ti capisco così bene, sto nella stessa situazione ahahaha Grazie Alessia
me in Germany
Thanks a lot from Germany too!
Same for me, also in Germany!
on 2nd week of our quarantine here in California. This will help relieve the stress! Prayers to you and your family in Italy.
I can't afford classes, I missed ballet so much! Thank you for doing this. You explain so well.
Eliana Rodriguez this is my exact situation... I feel sooo bad!
Saaame girl same!!!
Love this video! Wonderfully made. I feel like I'm in an authentic ballet class. More ballet class please! 20, 30, 45 min basic techniques for everyday would be great for us non-ballerinas! The video editing, camera filming of the two angles along with your instructions and classical music is perfect. And your wonderful cheery personality is the cherry on top! You're a great teacher! Thank you!
Michelle thank you so much for your lovely comment! I'm so happy i can transform your lounge in an authentic ballet studio and glad you are joining me at the barre! There will be soon another ballet barre, slightly more challenging (it's a full barre;D) and with lots of explanations in it. I'm also organising a more tutorial video where you'll be able to understand each and every step fully ! I will pass on the compliments about the videos to the man, you are right he's doing a really good job and he deserves some credits too! The music is played by a dearest friend of mine, Massimiliano Greco, funny enough i had the honour to listen to that exact plie music before he even decided to put in on cd, I was 15 then, and this music really takes me back to those days.I really do have a soft spot for his music ;) Keep me updated with your progress and let me now if there is anything in particular i can help with! I'm always here to answer any question! Lots of baci Ciao Alessia
These ballet classes are by far the best exercises on the web.... I am obsessed with doing a workout every day. I feel as if I am a ballerina, doing class warm up exercises.. Your body is an inspiration to aspire to. Love the calming music, the introduction to the movements and the movements themselves are controllable. It feels as if I am in your class with your sense of humour, your smile and your encouragement.... please carry on.... May we all go from strength to beautiful, toned bodies with you,
I am DRIPPING in sweat after doing this! I feel like a duck doing these barre workouts, but the results are real. I feel less and less like that every time.
Your videos have given me a new lease of ballet life at 60. I went to classes when I was 5 and had a cruel tutor that put me off for life but I have always loved ballet. I have certainly missed out all these years but your direction, joy and humour have made my spirits lift and the piano music and barre work are my new daily fitness regime. Thank You So Much!....
You have no idea how happy I am to hear you are back at the barre enjoying every step. Bravo! Never too late to dance your heart out :) Lots of love Alessia :)
I wanted to learn ballet as a kid (had a phase) but never took lessons bc they're too expensive.
I’m a retired ballet dancer and I LOVED IT. Keeps you in shape. Thank you.
I used to have ballet lessons but I quitted because I got a new sibling but I miss having ballet classes. So now, today I decided to watch ballet exercises because I don't really remember a lot of things in my ballet classes. This really gave me like real ballet classes vibes. Thank you for this❤
I'm almost 50 and as a former professional dancer, I am so happy to have found your videos. Your combinations are fluid and lyrical and your technique is an inspiration. Beautiful lines, feet and turnout! You're a wonderful teacher. So rare to find this on a UA-cam video. Thank you SO much!!!
Elisabeth thank you immensely for your beautiful comment! And above all Welcome to the Lazy dancer Family! Love Alessia :)
It's nice you have two cameras
+Anna Tkachev The tech-man is doing a very good job ;) I'll let him know ;);),) thank you ;) ciao Alessia
Hello! Merci for your channel :) It would be nice to see you from back to follow the same side, easier (for beginners I guess, like me :D ) also, I don't see much but your flat looks really nice! xoxo
I love ballet so much....and if I hadn't been 25 and with a full time job and a screwed up back, I would have started to take ballet lessons. This the best I can do at home and enjoy it so much. Thank you so much! So beautiful!!!!
Please please do a basic ballet barre or a how to do series (for example how to do plie etc) I love your coaching!
Hello Paula! I'm actually planning to do "how to series", where we can concentrate on every move. It is definitely on the list of "things to do". I might take a bit of time as i'd like to organise it well and deliver it the best way i can. If you have any question on anything in particular you'd like to see in the video let me know! Thank you again for your request ! Ciao Alessia :D :D :D
new to the practice, fell in love with ballet during the pandemic after being a lifelong classical musician. Your movements are so fluid and gorgeous and I love your videos!! Thank you!
These are awesome! I miss ballet and I see a lot of barre workouts with ZERO technique so this is a complete delight. I hope you'll put together a technical "how to" of turnout, arms and posture for all those people who are missing out and risking injury with these non-dancer barre teachers!
love the piano, played loudly. makes me feel like I'm in dance class, and it keeps me motivated. thanks!
Maureen I'm so pleased this makes you happy and dancing! Bravo! All the best Ciao Alessia :)
those last ones definitely had me scrambling, so glad no one was watching! still super enjoyable :D
Haven't done ballet for a year because of an injury and just trying to get back into shape. It shocks me how hard these exercises are for me now but I'm excited for the journey, thank you so much Alessia!
This has kicked my butt today. I love you for making these videos!!
You are amazing! You have a lightheartedness about your teaching that makes it so welcome. After a long battle with lupus I am so excited to be doing barre again and your classes are making the comeback so much nicer!
Just took my first ballet class today, and this video made me feel the same way : I CAN'T FOLLOW !! haha
Thank you , this video is perfect to train home and improve ♥
Bravo, i love these exercises easy and with the chair !!! Good idea !!! The musics are well known. 😉☺️Thanks for these choices 😻
I just came across this video and I'm already IN LOVE. Gotta go explore your entire channel
Hi Lola !!! You make me blush! Welcome to the channel and happy exploring! Ciao Alessia :D
This is like... The best thing that happened to me this year so far... Thank you so much!
I just had a go at this workout, my first ever ballet type and loved it! You just got one more fan. Thanks Alexia!
I absolutely adore your ballet exercises. It takes me back to when I studied ballet years ago. I started last year with Slow Barre and now this one and I love it. Thank you!
Alessia, I love your videos. Such a life saver during this difficult time. Thank you so much x
I just discovered your channel and fell in love with your classical barre workouts! The music you selected is perfect for this beautifully choreographed routine.The song Piles from the second routine had me run and add it to my playlist of favorite classical songs. I'm a beginner so thank you for explaining it for us! Please keep them coming, especially for us newbies. My best to you from California.
You are my new favorite fitness youtuber! This video was great! I loved the classic ballet music.
Thank you, I'm so pleased to hear so! Keep on smiling and keep up the great work! Ciao Alessia
More mini classes please loved it 😭😍🙌🏾
Loved it! Just what I needed. Combos are fun yet and challenging just enough. More please!
Dorian more fun combos are on the way! Thank you lots for joining me ! Ciao Alessia :D
Love this!! I stopped taking ballet classes years ago. I miss ballet! Love love love your channel, and the way you teach! :)
Awesome. I'm over 60 and enjoyed the moves I COULD do!!! Nice
I've never done ballet (or any dancing) before and this felt so difficult and good. You're a good teacher.
that was a perfect mini barre! just what I wanted without having to think it up on my own! thank you!
Thanks to quarantine, I'm back in my ballet slippers dancing away in my kitchen. Thank you for your perfectly guided class and adorable co-star.
I just love these barres/work-outs. I’ve been doing them since lockdown started and I am still surprised when each session ends - proof they must be fun!! And they are so definitely doing me a lot of good. Thank you, Alessia!
All your lazy ballet workouts are a bright spot during this corona era in NYC. I had never taken ballet before but you make the steps scaleable and approachable. Brava! I love the cat sightings too.
I did an hour and a half of your barre videos today and feel amazing and sore now. Can’t wait to do them again tomorrow!
INCREDIBLY informative. Clear. Doable. Thank you so much, you are the best!!
Thank you Alesia for providing home ballet exercises now that we're all in quarantine here in Greece..especially for the legs.....hope you're keeping safe....Alexandra
I've never done this video before, short but challenging.. LOVE ITTT
Love everything about these videos, the teacher, the lighting, the window, the colors 🤗 So easy to follow and not boring like some ballet videos can be.
I'm so so happy you enjoyed it!! Thank you so much and well done to you! Bravo! Love Alessia
This video is amazing! Working on getting in shape for my wedding next year and just for me in general. I just started and haven't really done any ballet before but this is helping me get the hang of things. You explain things wonderfully. I do get beginner's frustration but your personality and this routine have me determined to keep going. Thank you for posting!
you'll be the most beautiful bride walking down the isle! I can already imagine your posture and grace with a beautiful dress!! I'm so happy the videos are helpful and don't give up neither frustrated! it does take time, band you'll see things will get easier by repeating them over and over! Let me know if there is anything in particular you'd like me to help you with! All the best and Congratulations!!! Ciao Alessia
Alessia - saving Quarentine here in California - thank you for this simple barre that kills me overtime!
I've been following for a while and this is the barre that I keep coming back to. I just love the music and the combinations. They're perfect for practice on days when I don't have class. Now I just need to select a centre video and a stretching video for my practices
wowwwww Thank you for such a lovely video. It's my favorite now. These songs are so gooddddd and the video make me feel like I'm taking a ballet class again. Thanks again for making and sharing these video >
I danced Ballet most my adult and loved it . I am 63 , and doing ballet to these videos has brought my passion back . I think the dancers teaching the class are beautiful dancers and do a wonderful class that is easy to follow and gives me a wonderful workout that I can't wait til my next class and look forward to trying all the videos . Great job .
Colleen you just made my day! I want to be like you at 63! Keep on dancing and I'll make sure your passion for ballet will continue! Welcome to the Lazy Dancer Family! Lots of love Alessia :)
the best ballet channel ! i improve so much ! thank you for making me love ballet, again :)
This video is just what I need during quarantine in San Francisco! Very clear instruction and wonderful energy. Thank you!
I haven't danced for 15 years, and this is just great!! Thanks :-)
Awesome tips, thank you so much for your time and teaching! I'm a contemporary and modern jazz dancer in France and even though I love so much what I am doing I sometimes feel like I am lacking of ballet training... this video helps me to stay on point!
I loved it! I used to be a modern dancer and have recently gone back to dance classes. This is great for me on days when I can’t get to class. You are friendly, encouraging and inspiring to watch. Great music too.
Loved this class! I'm going to incorporate more of these. Hearing your approach as an instructor just brought back so many memories, and I wanted to do well. Thank you for these! Looking forward to seeing what all you have on your channel. 💗
The best ballet videos I've seen (and done). Thank you so much. Greetings from Perú!
Thank you Romina , that's very nice to hear ! I'll also tell the man he's done a good work putting it together ! Lots of love to you in Peru!!! Kissy Alessia :)
I love dance so much and it’s hard to find classes that fit my schedule living in a small town. I love the mini barre workout and look forward to trying more of your workouts!
im really gonna try this at home, AND YOUR CATS AMAZING! so frickin cute
Revisiting these videos after years of not doing ballet and I love these so much. Thank you! ❤
I absolutely LOVE this video! Thank you for creating it.
you are a brilliant teacher! explaining the movements clearly and talking one through the steps!! AND doing BOTH sides. Thank you thank you! I am 53 yrs old, ex brilliant ballerina!!HAhaha , working crazy hours and looking for online class! Yours is perfect! Please do more in same style!
Hello Anel, I'm so glad to read your kind words! Thank you so much. I'm so pleased i can be part of your daily routine! I promise i will do more classes like this. it was our first experiment but considering everyone is happy about it, we'll definitely video some more. Age doesn't matter when we want to dance-dance-dance, You have no idea how much i admire you for having such a passion and strength. Keep on going, it gives me one more reason to keep going too! Thank you again ! All my love Alessia
I just found your channel! As a former professional and currently out of shape dancer, I am very excited to get back into it! I haven't taken a ballet class in over 10 years, but your videos are perfect to do in my home studio space! Love your commentary as well!
Beautiful class☺️ loved every second of it❤️
Thank you so much Alessia! Here in Germany the studios are still closed so I have been taking your classes for months now❤ I was so surprised when I saw that I had actually improved these past months and it's all thanks to you, you are such an inspiration!😍
I love your teaching style, this is a great video for warming up.
I just found your videos/channel and I'm really appreciative. This is helping me to gain strength and endurance, as well as toning and losing weight. Thank you, Alessia!
Beautiful and vigorous mini barre for home! Love this... my new morning routine
That was sooo much fun. Super challenging too. Thank you Alexia! You are a gift
So I’m on a bit of a break and I’ve found your vids to stay in shape 🥰 absolutely loving it
Amo tus clases!!!
I love that head scarf!
Of course I love your ballet videos too❤️
Your voice motivates me to stay real with the part of myself that wants to do nothing more than dance through life. Thank you so much!
This is amazing! Thank you so much for uploading this. I haven’t practiced ballet in 8 years. I have been meaning to take classes again but I am not as slim as I used to be back when I was 14 years old and it makes me very self conscious, so this will certainly help me regain my confidence! I can still remember most of the steps, amazing what the body can recall after years without training! Love from Argentina
BRILLIANT! Exactly what i was looking for. I feel amazing after this routine :D
This was EXACTLY the kind of ballet video I was hoping to find! I did dance as a teenager about 15 years ago, but when I tried again as an adult I was very overwhelmed and found it hard to follow along. This was so easy to follow and I was surprised how much I remembered from back then/watching through Dance Academy about 20 times! I'm trying to get more creative with exercising and finding things that I will actually WANT to do, and this was a great place to start!
I came across your videos a few days ago, and just officially started with this one today. I'm a cancer survivor and spent nearly a year in the hospital and have suffered major neuropathy in my feet. I use to dance a few lifetimes ago ;?) and miss my ability to really point, but such is life. I'm doing much better now and a trying to take control of my body again. Thank you for being part of it.

Hello Nolan, what an an inspiring human being you are. I have read your biography and your life journey. People like you are the ones I look up to, you never stopped learning, but above all you never stopped in front of any troubles in life. Thank you for "telling us your story" and thank you for reminding us to keep going and be the best we can be!
With lots of love and gratitude
Alessia
ps. I really want to share your story, i believe many people will be motivated and inspired. Thank you again!
Exactly what I've been looking for to get back into my classic routine! ... Also love the cat :)
Thumbs up every time I do it! love it and love the music!
I came across your video today while searching for ballet classes that I could do at home. This is excellent, I love it. Everything is top: the instructions, your technique, the music and the video quality. Thank you so so much for offering this. 😍💜💞
You are very welcome Sabrina! I'm very happy you enjoyed it! 😘🤗
I just started ballet and your videos are absolutely perfect for me to squeeze some extra practice in ! Thanks so much, I'll check them all out!
Hey Kelaex ! Welcome to the channel and welcome to the world of ballet! Glad you can make some time for yourself during your busy day and i'm very glad i can be part of it! Enjoy the videos, let me know how it all goes! All the best Alessia :)
Loved your workout. Haven't done ballet in years. I had a BALL! Great workout and I feel about 20 years younger!
Just found this, and I am so glad I did! You are a wonderful teacher, lighthearted yet highly effective. This shorter session was exactly what I was looking for: "Barre"-style classes are all the rage, but efficient, user-friendly classical ballet barre is in short supply. Thanks so much.
Wooohooo! Glad this was what you were looking for Ellen! Have fun! Love Alessia :)
I haven’t taken a ballet class since the 90s. I’m now 64 and working my way back slowly. Starting yesterday! Don’t know what I was waiting for! Today I made it to 14 minutes.
This is my favorite video of yours. Please do something similar, but on an even more basic level for beginners? Also looking for a good beginner center work vid. You're my hero!
Oh Angela! you gave me the warm fuzzies! I'm so please to hear this is your favourite video! I will do a centre class very soon, i promise and more ballet barres! Lots of love and thank you again! Ciao Alessia :)
Love your videos - love your barre-work please please much more!!
Thank you for doing the multiple angles!
ya go you!!!
I love your vidoes too!
especialy the way you give tips in the work out!
your so sweet!
Thank you so much Alessia! You workouts are amazing and you are amazing! This has helped me so much from my depression!
I've been doing various workouts on your channel for a week and tonight finally got all the way through this mini barre! I've always loved dancing but have been afraid that I could never do ballet because of my body type. I'm so exciting to start dancing again and get into shape! Thanks for being such an encouraging and great teacher :)
Hi Rebecca, Thank you for joining me and doing the barre! Well done to you and well done for getting back into dancing! Never listen to what all the others say and keep doing what you love, we only live once! There will be another ballet barre coming soon and i really hope you'll keep on smiling and dancing with me! Always here for you guys and help you out achieving your best ! Never ever give up! Ciao Alessia
Perfect workout for rusty a dancer like myself who can't find a good adult ballet class locally. A nice mix of simple and more complex with option to go hard! And you are just so lovely as well. Thank you, Alessia!
LOVE this video! It's the perfect workout for my off days from ballet class! Please please PLEASE make more! Also, you are a beautiful dancer! Love doing your class and watching you do it.
Keep up the great work Hope! I will do more classes for sure! Thank you lots, Ciao Alessia :)
You are marvellous ! Love all your videos ! Thank you very much !
Thanks for the clip. I am really enjoyable and your clip show that everyone can do ballet, it’s approachable
Another 65 year old ex dancer:) lovely barre class fast and snappy:) Thank you.xx
I am so excited to have found your videos! I am a former dancer and want to work out but it gets so boring. Doing ballet again refreshes my spirit while working my body. Thank you !
I would love more classical ballet barres!! Both shorter ones like this and longer ones. They're my favorite.
Thanks you beautiful ballet dancer. Ive just found your videos and am a bit of a klutz right now, but looking forward to watching your every move and developing some of your grace. Ive been doing element ballet conditioning off you tube for a few years in with my weights and I can mimic every move she makes, but this is a whole new ball / ballet game. I am up for the challenge. and your lovely presence makes it fun. Thank you so much. I originally started looking for ballet exercises to keep my leg and bum nice as I got into my forties. Now just loving the vibe and the strength as well. Thankyou so much for posting. I will buy your t shirts!
Suzanna.
Yay! I can't wait to try this one. I'm loving your videos! Thanks a lot! 😊
You are more than welcome! Let me know how it goes! Ciao Alessia ;)
I love this! I took ballet for two years until I graduated from my studio and I miss it so much! this is helping me ease back into the art!
Keep on dancing Marissa!!! :D Ciao Alessia
That was amazing! I used to dance when I was a lot younger, and I am getting back into it for fitness. I am not a beginner, but a re-beginner lol... my body doesn’t seem to want to cooperate with what I picture myself doing ... 25 years ago. I’ll keep with it, thank you!
