I’ve been doing ballet for 15 years and I never really understood these terms until now 😂 this has been a HUGE help

This is PERFECT with the tape on the floor. I would like to tattoo this on my brain.

I have probably watched this 20 times. And I will watch at least that many more until I get my feet headed in the right directions. This video is so helpful. And the dancer’s arms and hands are so beautiful.

Literally headed into the studio for an exam on these 8 body positions, and this video saved me lol! ❤

True! If they've posted all the positions, they still need to say what those positions are when she changes feet or direction. Inexperienced viewers need to know the positions from all sides. I said this on the Dance Channel to a male teacher who was partnering a female dancer while explaining moves. The teacher had trainers that prevented the viewer from seeing his feet. He took offense, but this is when dancers need to ask teachers for help! Never assume people know what you're talking about.

I found that incredibly useful. I think I'll be marking out one of those grids in front of my living room mirror.

I confused efface derrier with ecarte derrier but in ecarte derrier the torso have to look at the 90° point of the working leg not 180° point like efface derrier am i correct😶😶

I don't understand still... they showed 4 names for 4 positions but then there are so much more other positions that she danced that I'm not sure whether they fall under same 4 position names they showed...
