Podcasts about ballet barre

In this episode of Out of the Clouds, host Anne Muhlethaler interviews celebrity fitness trainer and former ballerina Julie Granger. Anne came across Julie via an online recommendation and was immediately struck not only by the instructor's passion for teaching and the effectiveness of her classes (particularly Brooklyn Barre), but also by the combination of her warmth and dry sense of humour. In this interview, they dig into Julie's journey from the outskirts of Paris to the Boston Ballet, why she left her ballerina career behind, and how she decided to pursue new callings, including yoga, fitness and entrepreneurship. Currently based between Paris and Lisbon, Julie explains how she is ‘three-quarters teacher', and why she is not teaching by default but as a choice since it's something she truly loves. Having opened her first studio the week before the first COVID lockdown in 2020, the ex-ballerina opens up on the difficulties she faced then and how grateful she is to have been able to continue to lead her community of students (her ‘Squad,' as she calls them) virtually.  Anne and Julie discuss the competitive culture of celebrity trainers in New York and the benefits of discipline and passion. Julie also shares how she wants to offer her students not just the benefits of a toned and energised body but for them to have a great time while engaging with fitness, as well as how she hopes to make the benefits of ballet available to all. Finally, Julie covers how she's learned to be kinder to herself, as we often are our own harshest critics, and why kindness is what matters most. A passionate, wise, and spirited interview.

Danielle and I had a deep conversation about her husband who is a thrill-seeker. We spoke about her mental and emotional feelings about her husband who does extremely dangerous things and a risk taker. Danielle Kaplan is a speech-language pathologist and movement specialist. She grew up in Johannesburg, South Africa and holds a master's degree in Speech Pathology. She and her husband Steve emigrated to Canada, where she spent twenty years working in acute teaching hospitals, in Neurology, Neurosurgery, and spinal injury. Danielle gained a certification in Pilates and then went on to train further in movement while achieving her Personal Training certification (CanfitPro), Ballet Barre for fitness training and then received her Rehab Exercise Specialization Certification. The mother of two, she lives with her husband Steve and their two fur babies in Toronto, Ontario. I Married A Thrill-Seeker is her first book. When Danielle Kaplan's husband Steve decides to take one last road trip on his BMW R1200GS Enduro, from Toronto, Ontario to near Fairbanks, Alaska, his life changes in an instant. The treacherous stretch of road between Carmacks and Watson Lake in the Yukon called the Campbell Highway was incredibly dangerous in the rain. Steve hit a pothole and crashed-and what follows is a true testament of luck, love, and incredible fortitude as his injuries leave him with a less than one percent survival rate. In this honest, open memoir Danielle Kaplan explores the toll Steve's trip took on her family, his accident and her husband's incredibly long recovery took on her family. As a former speech pathologist, Danielle becomes her husband's greatest ally-fighting by his side the entire time, through every step forward and step back, as Steve regains his health after the tragic accident. From the moment Steve leaves the driveway until the night of the fateful call, Danielle has mixed feelings about the trip. And from the months they spend in the hospital to her husband's eventual recovery, she reveals her truthful, mixed emotions about everything from the life saving measures used to keep him alive to the unbearable decisions she had to make about their family. This heartfelt, raw story contains the essence of the human spirit, and is filled with both determination and love.

I'm bringing you a ballet concept today that is so fun to watch and also to do, batterie or beats of the legs in classical ballet, which we do as we advance our jumping technique and performance practice. Batterie is a fun and exciting addition to our ballet variations, petit, and grand allegro. It captures the exuberance, joy, and power of certain characters and situations and celebrates the balletic love of flight and virtuosity. “Beats, the general French for which is batterie, are steps in which one leg is beaten against the other. Beats bring into ballet the element of brilliance, virtuosity, and therefore the execution of them does not allow any carelessness, approximation or simplification, or they would lose their raison d'être." - Russian ballet pedagogue Agrippina Vaganova Building on a foundation of ballet jumping technique (including foot and leg strengthening, core work, Dance Warmup, Ballet Barre training, and basic beats like Plucky Petit Battement and jumps like Saucy Prances & Sautés), today we're breaking down airborne balletic beats, such as changement, royale, échappé, jeté, and assemblé battu, and entrechats trois (3), quatre (4), cinq (5), six, etc. I reference the books _Basic Principles of Classical Ballet_ by Agrippina Vaganova, _The Cecchetti Method of Classical Ballet: Theory and Technique_ by Cyril W. Beaumont & Stanislas Idzikowski, & _The Ballet Companion_ by Eliza Gaynor Minden. Stay tuned on the blog for the companion article, video, and more resources!

I can be myself. it's like everything is in favor of me”“If there's 50% of love… try to nurture that 50%” Glauco Araujo is a Brazilian-born professional dancer and actor trained both here in the U.S. and in Brazil. In Rio, Glauco danced with the Rio Dance Company (modern dance), as well as with the integrated dance company ANDEF (disability dance). In 2012, Glauco represented Brazil in the closing ceremony of the Paralympic games in London. And from 2015 to 2017 Glauco acted and danced lead roles at Momenta Dance Company with a repertoire including Doris Humphrey, Martha Graham and Charles Weidman, as well as classic choreographers like August Bournonville, Mikhail Fokine, Jules Perrot and Marius Petipa; and disability choreographers Alice Sheppard and Ginger Lane. At Momenta, a dance piece entitled Meloudious Marco was created for Glauco in which he was featured in the lead role of Marco. Glauco was drawn to NYC in early 2017 and was given a scholarship in at Alvin Ailey from 2017 to 2018. In 2018, he was the featured dancer in Aria, a duet choreographed for him by Pedro Ruiz, with live accompaniment by the Camerata NY Orchestra. Glauco danced and acted the following year in Sasha Spielvogel's new musical Come Back Once More So I Can Say Goodbye — a celebration of the 50th anniversary of Stonewall. Glauco's next featured role was in Joshua Bergasse's musical A Crossing, performed with Barrington Stage Company. Glauco has teamed several times, beginning in 2018 to the present, with the award-winning German dancer/director Severine Reisp. Their films have been recognized in a number of international film festivals: A Tango to Remember– Best Romance Film, Los Angeles Film Awards; Best Woman Filmmaker, The Atman Film Festival; Cinematic Award Winner, Cyprus International Film Festival; Ruminate– Best Musical and Best Dance Choreography, Oniros Film Awards; Best Musical/Dance Film, Los Angeles Film Awards. Another film, Lucid, written and directed by Juan Wang has received a Best Film award from The Heibei Television Artists Association. Glauco costarred in this short film with the beautiful and talentedactress and formerAmerican Ballet Theater dancer, Elina GoldeMiettinen.

This music video won Best Music Video at the Athens International Digital Film Festival Award. On TV, Glauco most notably had a featured comic role in a promo commercialfor Betty in New York, and last January Glauco played the devious Pawnbroker on The Investigation Discovery Channel in Homicide City: Charlotte. Drawn to the New York theater scene, Glauco has worked nonstop onstage for the past three years, working often with Triangle Theater and The Snarks, ACC and EAG. His New York debut was as the romantic lead, Peter Latham, in Pierre Barillet's Forty Carats. His comic turn was followed by his hilarious performance as the effete Bob Lamb in Tina Howe's Museum. In a series of scene nights, Glauco's range has covered the hot-headed role of Ken in John Logan's Red, the sweet-hearted Cornelius in Thornton Wilder's The Matchmaker, the deceptive Morris Townsend in Ruth and Augustus Goetz's The Heiress, and the diabolic Adolf Eichmann Raul Wallenberg's Saved Me. In Soledad Bailada y Casi Compartida, presented at the University of Seville, and on tour around Spain. Glauco has been thrilled to work alongside Broadway and West End actors Anthony Newfield, Alison Fraser and Karen Archer in Richard Alleman's new play Adrift, playing the Brazilian, and provocative Zumba instructor, Flavio. Glauco has been honored to be part of special performances to benefit the Episcopal Actors' Guild and the Cape May Stage. Reviewed in the Times Square Chronicles, “Betsy (Alison Fraser) longs for something more, alongside interactions of the less virtuous kind with the handsome and sweet-talking Flavio, played seductively by the appealing Glauco Araujo (Spielvogel's Come Back Once More).” Recently, Glauco performed in a short bio-pic entitled Dance for Freedom directed by Severine Reisp, highlighting the challenges people of color face today, and which has garnered recognition as the First-Place Recipient of the Dr. David Milch Foundation/CCNY Award in short film competition. In her review, juror Timberkly Whitfield, program executive and producer for A&E, as well as a host on the History Channel and A&E, wrote: “Glauco Araujo is a beautiful dancer and you capture him in such a way that really moved me. I felt inspired by his story that even in the face of racism he doesn't see himself as a victim. Strong production values. You checked all the boxes on this one — FANTASTIC!”  Link from past Interviews  http://diversityrulesmagazine.com/2021/02/28/march-feature-interview-glauco-araujo/http://www.ourtownny.com/news/the-universal-language-of-the-arts-YE1547010https://elespecial.com/glauco-araujo-el-bailarin-que-ha-conquistado-de-brasil-new-yorkhttps://www.noticiali.com/glauco-araujo-sobreviviendo-a-traves-de-la-creatividad/

These classifications are applicable to all dance styles that change feet or leave the floor with a spring regardless of velocity or amplitude. Here I'm taking the definition of the categories which I use in live classes from both ballet text and modern texts, but have been taught these concepts in jazz and tap contexts as well. Students report it to be a useful tool to analyze and learn new steps as well as elaborate petit allegro choreography, which is also a wonderful training in musicality (check out my rhythm and musicality for dancers blog for more on that)!

This is the 5th in my podcast series on the seven basic movements of ballet, so if you missed them, you may also wish to go back and listen to Episodes #014 “Powerful Plies” #016 “Tendus & What it Means to Stretch” #018 “Relever & Rising,” and #019 “Tourner - turning, rotation, and creative U-turns.” Stay tuned for “Glisser - to glide” and “Élancer - to dart,” still to come! This week, I have been exploring the theme of stable and strong legs, jumping, and leaping into the unknown. Right now the birds are migrating, and I've seen the Canada Geese organizing themselves by the ponds and riverfront. As humans, the closest we can get to flight, without the help of equipment and additional propulsion, is jumping and leaping. Ballet is known for this near-flight quality, especially portraying supernatural creatures that float like fairies, willis, and so forth, as well as actual birds- the bluebird, “The Fire Bird,” and that classic human-and-bird ballet, “Swan Lake.” Of course, unaided, our flight is more like a controlled fall, and a lot of technique and coordination is required to pull it off. We must thoughtfully build a strong foundation of support, developing coordination and power. We launch ourselves heavenward in the hope that we will be caught again. If you're interested in working on the physical skills of jumping, I recommend starting with the “Saucy Prances & Sautés” video on my YouTube Channel, as well as the “Legs, Legs, Legs,” “Foot & Ankle Conditioning,” and “Ballet Barre” playlists. In yoga, we foster a balance between stability and mobility that prepares the body and mind for whatever it may face. Recently, we've been practicing stability through the bottoms of the feet for balancing, visualizing planting them into the floor across a “golden triangle” of big toe-little toe-heel, pouring the weight evenly across that surface. Then we build a strong scaffolding of supporting musculature through mindful movement through balancing poses. This week's 40-minute practice video, “Happy Knees Stability Yoga” was focused on developing stability for balancing, everyday activities, and athletic feats. Whether we physically jump or leap, all of us face leaps of faith in life. We can't always clearly see the road ahead, and must do our best to build a strong foundation and then move forward in the hope that we will be met with a soft landing. For more information about all of these themes and the work I do, and for more free resources, visit me at ablythecoach.com

On this episode of West of Broadway, Will & Wendy are shifting focus slightly away from celebrating Musical Theater in Los Angeles and on the West Coast to celebrating Musical Theater FROM Los Angeles. With the recent announcement that the Broadway Industry will be staying closed until 2021, it is now more important than ever that we support arts education. Will and Wendy sit down with Director of Sales and Partnerships for PASSDOOR and one of their Visiting Educators, James Tabeek do discuss how they are working to help change the face of tomorrow’s Broadway by educating the young artists of today. PASSDOOR The new virtual platform offers intimate dance classes taught by seasoned Broadway performers. Offering over 40 live dance classes per week for aspiring dancers of all ages and skill levels. The emerging company in the New York theatre scene, announced the launch of their virtual platform which hosts professional-level dance classes taught solely by seasoned Broadway performers. Through the instruction of these notable teaching artists who have appeared in over 100 Broadway shows, students on Passdoor will learn dance techniques, skills and choreography from the comfort of their own home — regardless of personal skill level or age. With Broadway dark due to COVID-19, PassDoor was born out of the necessity to provide out-of-work performers an outlet for their art — the opportunity to train, connect and share their talents with future generations of dancers. Each Passdoor class is capped at 20 students, therefore allowing the instructors to provide direct feedback live. Classes are offered in the Ballet, Ballet Barre, Broadway Choreo, Children’s Theatre Playhouse, Jazz, Hip Hop, Tap, Theatre Dance and Theatre Jazz modalities, formatted for both adults and children. “We formed PassDoor out of a need to help displaced Broadway Dancers due to the Pandemic, but quickly discovered it could be so much more.

“Horse trainers train horses. Horsemen work on themselves.” -Tom Dorrance Linda’s work speaks to the foundation and refinement of skills that allows ANY horse, regardless of discipline, to be a more willing and prepared partner. For her, the art of horsemanship is a personal journey to discover the grace, harmony and partnership that can exist between horse and rider. Linda has been teaching and training professionally since 1980. She has helped horses and riders in nearly every discipline — from stock horse to dressage to cutting horse to eventing. Linda has worked with many “Masters” of the art of horsemanship, including Buck Brannaman, Tom Curtin and Ray Hunt. In 2008, she attended the first of many symposiums taught by Dr. Gerd Heuschmann, world renowned expert of equine biomechanics and the author of Tug of Way - Classical versus “Modern” Dressage. In addition, Linda has received certification through the Western Dressage Association of America (WDAA) Train the Trainers Program. For more information on Linda’s top notch clinics and training options, please visit her website at www.lindahoover.com or her FB page page at https://www.facebook.com/LindaHooverRefinedHorsemanship/ At Horse Wise, I teach people tools so that they can learn how to coach themselves and their horses to progress together as a team. It’s a fun process that shows you how build a good partnership with your horse (in a practical, straightforward way).
