When choosing a ballet barre, be sure to find one that is adjustable. Ideally, the height of a barre should be about waist level, with a respectable distance between the upper and lower barres. If you are planning to use more than one barre at a time, consider purchasing a double-barrel set, which will allow more children to practice at one time.
There are a variety of materials used for ballet barres, including wood, metal, and plastic. The type you choose depends on your preference and budget. Each material has its own pros and cons. Consider the durability of the ballet bar before you buy it. If it is not sturdy, the bar may break after a few uses.
You should also consider the height of the ballet barre when selecting the right one for your child. While choosing a ballet barre, keep in mind that dancers should rarely exert their full weight on the barre, but should aim to touch it gently. However, young dancers often grip the barre and exert a considerable amount of weight when concentrating. To prevent this, choose a sturdy ballet barre with wooden handrails that are not varnished. Metal or lacquered handrails are prone to slipping.
A ballet barre can be either used for personal or public use. A personal ballet barre is at the level of the user, while a barre used in a dance studio is usually at an average height. The standard height of a ballet barre should be between the elbow and hands of an adult, and the height of a single barre should be between 42 and 44 inches off the floor.
