We can’t wait to meet our Baby Brocherini
Dear Brocherinas,
As I prepare for my baby boy’s arrival in January, I want to make sure you are cared for and supported in your ballet journey.
Here’s everything I've got cooking (other than the bun in the oven)!
Zoom Classes
November 29th will be the last regularly-scheduled Zoom class before my baby arrives. Stay tuned for new Zoom offerings after the baby in late April or early May.
Our 16-week Beginner Pointe Cohort will continue uninterrupted through December 22nd.
Holiday Parties: As long as I haven’t had the baby yet, join our annual gatherings on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day. Depending on what I can do at that time, we may do a few pliés, tendus and port de bras, or we may simply gather. Keep an eye on your member dashboard and your inbox for details.
Memberships
If you are on an On-Demand monthly or annual membership, your membership will continue without any change. You’ll have access to our library of nearly 8,000 videos, brand new programs to guide you through the new year (see more details below). New videos will also come out weekly while I’m away!
If you are on a discontinued Unlimited Zoom Classes Membership, starting December 1st, all grandfathered Zoom Classes Memberships will automatically transition to $25/month On-Demand memberships. The charge will be prorated and your future payments processed on the 1st of each month. If you prefer to cancel, you can do so anytime on your account page. Simply wait until after your November bill to enjoy unlimited access through the end of the Zoom schedule this month. At a future time when the live class schedule becomes robust enough to make it worth it for you, you’ll have the option to re-activate your current grandfathered rate. Your loyalty and support over the years truly mean so much to me.
✨ Programs for While I’m Away
To keep you dancing and motivated while I’m out, I’ve designed several new 90-day Programs. These structured plans balance the daily practice with the same well-rounded approach as our live Zoom calendar to give you a familiar structure in your week. These will all release in December:
Daily Practice Ballet Blueprint for Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4
Pointe Level A, Level B at the Barre, Level B Venturing into the Center, Level C, and Level D
Need help deciding what to work on?
Sundays Dec 7 & 21 at 12pm Eastern: I'll be hosting group Zoom sessions to help you pick the right program. Hop in, tell me about your goals, and I’ll recommend which program is best for you. These sessions will be free for all members.
Prefer 1:1 guidance? Book a 1:1 Custom Plan session before December 22nd if you’d like me to design a tailor-made custom plan just for you to know exactly what to work on while I'm away.
If you would like to be connected with a private teacher for support while I'm away, reply back, tell me at hello@brocheballet.com about your goals, and I'd be happy to recommend a teacher for you.
Motivation & Support While I’m Away
I will be here for you through December until the baby arrives, but after that not to worry, you won’t be on your own!
Longtime Brocherina, Suzanne, will be here to answer emails & forum questions so you always have support and encouragement.
🤝 Stay Connected: Sunday Accountability Check-Ins
Suzanne will also host a handful of Sunday community Check-ins on Zoom from January - April.
These will be free for all members. Stay connected with your ballet friends, renew your motivation, and get class suggestions from fellow Brocherinas who know the On-Demand library inside and out.
Keep an eye out on your member dashboard & the community forum for the schedule of check-ins.
New Videos Weekly
Each week once the baby arrives, new videos from some of your favorite instructors will continue dropping onto the platform. Keep an eye out for all the fabulous new variety of classes I've got planned for you!
🩰 Beginner Pointe Cohort Timeline
If pointe is your dream, don’t wait! My aim is to open the next Pointe Cohort applications in late April 2026.
Begin the Journey to Pointe Program in December. It typically takes 4–6 months to complete the program.
If you want more personalized guidance, book a Foot 360° Consultation. This is your fast track to knowing exactly what to work on to go en pointe! Purchase your Consultation and send in your video by December 10th.
👶 Community Forum & Baby Pics
I’ve created a special forum section for baby photos and updates. Join if you’d like to stay connected. No pressure if it’s not your thing. I don’t plan to share much on my public social media about the baby, but this space is for our Broche family to share in the joy together.
Thank you for being part of this community and for supporting as I navigate my pas de deux with baby Brocherini. Your encouragement, and presence mean so much. The best is yet to come!
With love and gratitude,
Julie & baby
