I love how for the ballet classes, it's not the same studio, it's a different studio specifically catered and matches the atmosphere of ballet. Steezy really pays attention to detail ❤️💯👍🏿

Omg this is incredibly helpful! I'm a dancer and dance teacher but I've always struggled with classical terms. I'm definitely gonna keep coming back to this video when I'm preparing for my classes. Thank you Steezy! ^^

Hi Steezy! Hope you can enlighten me more with this...

If Pas de bourree means beating steps, is the grapevine move considered a pas de bourree?

And am I right to assume that a pas de bourree is patterned in alternating footsteps?

Excited to learn more about this!

Edit:
Alsooo, what is considered as a "beating step"? Really hoping that you can provide me answers to these! Excited to share this with my teammates!

[CAITLINCILLIER]

OMG LOVE IM SO HAPPY BALLET I’ve always wanted to learn

[linelisbeth]

I know that's how she learnt it but the american pronounciation of the french terms hurts a little sometimes

Why am I feeling like she's flirting with me lol

[fzdduld]

Οι 5 positions des pieds (θέσεις των ποδιών) που χρησιμοποιούνται στο
Κλασσικό μπαλέτο πραγματοποιούνται με τα πόδια γυρισμένα προς τα έξω από την
άρθρωση των ισχύων (en dehors). Αν χρησιμοποιηθεί οποιαδήποτε άλλη άρθρωση
(αστραγάλων ή γονάτων) θα είναι ένα σοβαρό λάθος τοποθέτησης και είναι
απολύτως βέβαιο ότι θα ακολουθήσουν τραυματισμοί.
