Ballet barres for dance schools, gyms and home

Ballet barres are essential accessories for dance training for children and adults. They provide support for practicing positions and offer good assistance for warming up and stretching exercises. Basically, you can choose from two assembly options: wall-mounted ballet barres are firmly screwed to the wall with stable wall brackets. Appropriate mounting hardware is usually included. Free standing ballet barres with bases can be set up anywhere in the room.

Ballet barres: various heights and lengths

The ideal mounting height for ballet barres varies depending on whether you are training with children or adults. A height of approx. 87 cm is recommended for children and approx. 110 cm for adults. Among the freestanding ballet barres there is a choice of models with fixed or adjustable barre heights. The length also varies – at Sport-Thieme you can have your ballet barre made to measure. They are made from ash wood, accurate to the millimetre with minimal distortion. In our ballet shop you can also obtain ballet mirrors in various sizes to match your ballet barres.
