Welcome to The Kniaseff Stevovich Floor Barre for Extensions
Course outline
About this course:
This floor barre course is the missing piece of the puzzle to your ballet training : the very foundations you never learn in a typical vocational ballet training, but is a part of the pre ballet curriculum of the best ballet schools:
The course is composed in two parts;
The first part starts with the 4 foundational exercises, which build our turn out and placement of the fundamental ballet movements, much like the beginning of the ballet barre.
The second part conditions our body for harder ballet technical elements and refining our classical lines with exercises such as ab work, adages, batterie etc. it reflects what is required for the second half of barre through to center work.
Extensions
Proper alignment and targeting just the right areas to strengthen and fast track our progress in improving the height of our extensions – as well as the aesthetic quality of our line.
In this course we strengthen and release the psoas for front and side extensions, strengthen the back in unique ways for a higher arabesque, and establish the precise placement needed for extensions in each direction.

Working on lower abs with our placement and strength for extensions to the front, and the same for our deep rotators and lower back for arabesques that are right behind us.
Working on a strong supporting leg as we teach the working leg to smoothly glide through front, side and arabesque positions (fouetté). Correctly understanding this movement will help find the “nook” the where the femur bone naturally settles at in a higher, now more effortless position.
Perfect for nailing and controlling high extensions in quicker movements (such as Italian fouetté) a fouetté grand battement mirroring our previous adage.
Meet your teacher:
India left New York for Paris, expressly to study Kniaseff barre au sol under legendary teacher, Jacqueline Fynnaert and Yasna Stevovich (a close student of the creator, Boris Kniaseff). Due to India’s teacher training under Yasna Stevovich, she is one of the few floor barre teachers in the world to have the accord of the Kniaseff family to teach this floor barre method. It is one of India’s biggest joys to share the essence of classical ballet through this accessible and ingenious technique .
