Fun Friday Frappé Fog
Frappés are a fun step. They must be done forcefully, and
the energy must continue flowing outward even after the movement itself has
stopped. I’ve blogged about this before.
Here is another image for frappés, courtesy of one of my
students, Lindsay. She suggests imagining clouds of fog surrounding the feet,
and the frappé must be performed with enough force to create a nice, straight path
through the fog.
Done correctly, the fog will “part”, and a straight path
where the foot goes will be created.
Thank you, Lindsay!
From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:
Secret #10e:
“Imagine doing a frappé with enough force to create a path through fog.”
