French ballet terms with audio and illustrations

- In this video you will find the French ballet terms used in my book "Ballet for Everybody - the Basics of Ballet for Beginners of All Ages". The illustrations here are from the book, but they are by no means meant as instructions - to learn ballet you have to have the book. Here they serve as a memory help. The only purpose of this video is to help people to learn the French terms. This should be especially helpful for people who want to learn ballet (for example with the help of a book) but are not able to attend classes.
Each term is spoken twice, with a little pause during which you can try yourself.

The person saying the vocabulary words sounds depressed
Yeah I know. But actually it’s a love song by Beethoven.
She sounds like crying 🥺
Littlebub 921 I am laughing so hard at this comment
Sounds like Chopin to me
They always do
the voice sounds like it’s about to break into tears
I speak french and dance ballet but the pronounciation sounds weird sometimes
Anna-Maria Lux moi aussi
Yes it is
Je pense que la personne qui prononce est juste âgée et a un certain accent haha, mais elle est peut-être françaiss
i heard that too lol (im also french)
Elle a le même accent que ma grand mère qui est bavaroise (mais elle a vécu au Danemark il y a une vingtaine d'années). Je ne pense pas qu'elle soit française
Im french and the voice sound terrible 😑 but the illustrations are really helpful 😊
i haven't done ballet in 2 years i started doing it and i have an assessment to see what level i need to be at and this definitely is going to help me remember for the assessment in 2 weeks
Wow I am going through the same thing but I haven't played ballet for 7 years.
This would have been so much better if it had the English meaning after it
debbie wilder there is no english term for it. All steps and positions are french, and learned in french.
It doesn't matter because the professional terms are in French
???
@Jordan Roberts no you dont, why dont you learn french its easier
I found the English terms on Pinterest you should try it
this gives me the chills
Why?
isabella burgess literally I was learning in my room and went into my living room bc it gave me chills
Her voice perfectly matched the melancholy of Chopin in the background...😅 Merci pour la vidéo!
Thank you for this ❤️
Thank you so much for this!
Thanks, it's helpful for the beginners.
Im starting IF ballet this year and when we do the cambré in the rond de jambe a terre i hold on to the barre for dear life because otherwise I’ll fall on my bum
These moves are perfect for DeathByte especially when used for combat
BOTH for action and for humor
she gave me crippling depression
Who?
@@millions2nette the person reading it she sounded like the person wanted to cry
What style of technique is this. I'm seeing a combination of Russian and Italian. Passe and Retire are actually switched in video. Using Italian Frappe, and Russian Jete, Russian Assemble...great video and informative. Slight variations in styles. ♥️
My ballet teacher has bad pronunciation, she has a lisp, and has trouble making flem sounds. It was cool to hear these words correctly.
WitherQueen1805 I speak French and they aren't all correct
Thank you so much. I will return several times to review. =D
Thank you
Merciiiii beaucoup moi qui fait de la dance classique cela m aide énormément encor merciiiii
It is useful. But so disappointing as it is called 'Ballet for Everybody' and there are no images of boys of men. Even reverence does not show a bow.
Sarah C yeah but atleast there aren’t on pointe
yes there were!
I started dance a couple months ago and I just turned 15 in October. I do Ballet, Jazz, and Lyrical. I’m a total beginner and I’m already in my ballet level 2 class which is the second highest one at my studio. Any advice?
male dancers have only one purpose: it is to prevent the ballerinas from flying away.
@@nicknavarro629 Just keep practising, test yourself on terminlogy, don't give up, learn from mistakes, ask questions and have fun.
Thanksss !!!!!
Can someone tell me the scene? Like what is that, i just heard of it but don’t know how its written
Very informative video.
this was pretty helpful thx :)
Does ur book have audio?
Btw what is the title of the song? Thank you very much for giving us an amzing video.
Engel Endino the song is nocturne in C sharp minor by chopin😁
@@gianna6254 hear this tune in many ballet vids.
Eleve? I always learned it as Releve... which one is the right one?
They are the same except eleve is without a plié before. And relevé is to plié first then rise.
élever = to rise
relever = to rise again
Eleve is to rise without a plie, and releve is to rise after a plie. Often you'll hear them used interchangeably though :)
modern invention?@@BallerinaBabe
In the entrechat I don’t understand how you do all that in one jump
you have to have very quick feet. it's really fun once you figure it out
You practise a lot lying down and on the bar and eventually your feet get fast enough. There's easier variations too.
@@robinroryld that is a very good idea!
Aa kiva oot suomalainen :). Haluisin alottaa baletin. Oon 13 vuotias. Aloitan venyttelemään, että voin aloittaa
name of music?
So... degagé is the same as battement jeté? And whats the difference between retire and passe?
Passé is a pose, and retire means you go up to passé then come down again. Don't quote me on this please I might be wrong.
Battement jeté is a specific action while degagé is just when your foot is off the floor in general :)
The pictures are so hard to understand. I know what they all are but if I didn’t there is no way I’d have understood with these pictures and lack of explanation. Lots of them looked so different to what they really are :(
I understand them more than actually people doing and explaining them but who am I to say i don't even ballet tho I love it 💖
Shreya Chekkala do you know what they are supposed to look like? If so, did you find this video helpful? (Just trying good understand if we have different learning styles!)
@@SP-kk5nj yes I did understand the jumps and arabesque and I also tired Pas de bourré but didn't go any further then step three because I don't have good balance but I do practice it
What about allonge?
The person saying this is so weird.
I have a question I forgot the difference between en deor and en dedan
en dehors - outside/outwards
en dedans - inside/inwards
LeenLovesDancing 🎈 tysm and u also helped me spell it right 😂😂😂😂
@@amandagarcia6622 I like French because it's challenging. I'm an international secretary. 🇩🇪🇬🇧🇫🇷🇪🇸
LeenLovesDancing 🎈 cool!!!
En el minuto 1:16 dice arabesque de côté, el arabesque siempre es derrière, no hay arabesque al lado. Hay primer, segundo, tercero, cuarto arabesque y siempre la pierna va atrás nunca de lado.
What's the song in the background?
Dana-Marie Parris nocturne 20 Tchaikovsky ☺️
Red Velvet thank you :)
Dana-Marie Parris it's nocturne chopin
👌👌👌👌🙏❤
I love deglape (jeez my spelling)
Me after watching dance moms
I can't really understand en avant part
Y
What's the difference between arabesque and de cote
Ashley Paul the arms
The person saying this sounds so depressing and the music doesn’t make it any better
I understand why they left this out but, there is a word that is kinda like break a leg in theater for ballet it is the French word for shit its merdè pronounced me-rid!
? (I'm French)
@@felissylvestris6557 I think they mean it's pronounced mare-de? it's so hard explaining french sounds with english lol
@@felissylvestris6557 i'm french and i don't really know what they meant, but "break a leg" means kinda like good luck right.. and my mom used to say "bonne merde" to say good look like before a exam or whatever so maybe that's what the original poster meant
wow that was sad
The pronunciation is not good at all
The voice is gonna give me nightmares so I muted it
