These are videos available on the Internet. I have watched them all to make sure they are correct. I discovered someone has already done a video glossary, which is most useful of the steps you need for the free work. Shown in isolation, you can practice them and perhaps link some.
BARRE :

CENTRE WORK
Ports de bras – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RjyZGXqTm8
NOTE – these dancers do a slight spring to the side on the “forward, side, back” (open pas de bourrée over – Dessus) In the book, it details ONLY Pose, which means ‘step’. There is no spring, but you should make it flow.
