Mad Monday Push Pull
As stated in Ballet
Secret #18o: “A successful piqué involves
a push leg and a pull leg.” This means that the impetus required by the
step requires a good plié (the push
leg), and a good, aggressive piqué (the pull
leg).
Think about it. The plié pushes off the floor at the same
time the extended leg reaches out (pulls). These two things happen right before
the dancer transfers weight from the plié leg to the piqué leg. Push pull…
This thought pattern creates the proper energy for the step.
If either leg fails to play their part, the step will not be successful.
From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:
Ballet Secret #18o:
“A successful piqué involves a push leg and a pull leg.”
