focus on relaxing your shoulders and sinking them down (elbows high still!) as you push up onto releve. start by practicing at a bar to hold your balance. make sure you hold your core or you may lean backwards when your shoulders are relaxed
Hi! I was wondering what ballet pose was when you point your toe out to the side, pull it up to the side of your leg, put it out to the front and then kick?
pointe the foot to the side = tendu, pull it up to the side of your leg = passe/retire, develope would move the leg to the front, but unsure of the kick aspect - maybe just a small lift before placing leg in tendu devant and closing fifth - ferme/cinquième.
***** You do realize that you can turn off the subtitles? The video itself doesn't have subtitles. They are from TH-cam and if you don't turn them on in the first place you can see everything.
Wrong. In Ballet, it is spelled Fondu. In French if describing a female or something feminine in nature, you would spell it Fondue. But Ballet terminology is generally spelled in the masculine nature.
she may not be perfect but she explains soooo nice !!! THATS a real teacher !!!!!
Very helpful, thanks!
Also loving the "melty" music, highly appropriate for fondu lol
0:27 you're welcome
OFP thx
I saw everyone is asking about the subtitle if you don't know, you can either turn it off or move the subtitle to the top, like where her head is.
• That was an ultra deluxe intro
• Bullet point details would have been more efficient
• My vote on spelling is “Fondu”
Fondu for ballet word - to melt.
Actually that is a coupe - Fondu is performed at the knee and then extended out
I don't like fondus. My teacher puts my leg up higher and doesn't push the other girls so I am kind of like o-o
lol ur lucky my ballet teacher is so bad she taught us a fondu but it wasn't even close to this
nicely done
I have a big problem.. I always make my shoulders go up when I am doing releve it's just tiring.

@@cypher6935 Thank u so much! 2 years later and I am so much better at it, thanks to you :))
This is so helpful! Thanks
The fault is with the placement of the subtitles which covers the movements we are learning.
+Sharon Wynne turn off the subtitles then you stupid fuck
ArvenaThelas bro clam down...

@@jennifercowell9343 thankyou! i have absolutely no idea what my 13 year old self meant by that 😭
I like the instructional video. It would be even better if the subtitles would not be covering the feet, so footwork can be analyzed.

Or you can move the subtitle to the top
@@newkatastrophies Some people are hard of hearing and NEED the closed captioning. Thankfully, TH-cam often provides it.
@@eunhu.i_i There is no way to move the closed captions from their location at the bottom.
@@BettyTheLion I can

It’s because the real term is battement fondu and battement is a masculine noun.
At least I leaned in Asia city sub them!
Hi ok
That's wrong lol
Tudo certo
Menos os braços
Ok you can't see her feet with the subtitles, but that's not important I guess.
+Μυρτώ Αλεξοπούλου you can turn it off ^^
She needs to learn that she's not professional and she needs to tuck her thumbs in.
and you need to go away
