Technical Tuesday Jeté Battu
Welcome back to a daily tidbit of inspiration. I hope
everyone had a wonderful spring holiday,
or is about to have one.
Today I’m talking about jeté battu. For information on a
basic jeté, please refer to these previous blogs:
A jeté battu simply adds a beat as the working foot brushes
from fifth. It most often beats back, that is, in the spot the foot came from.
The working foot then changes position and lands in front, thus becoming the supporting foot. All the previous jeté rules
apply, especially the one that says a jeté never
travels side to side (imagine that log over the Grand Canyon).
From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:
Ballet Secret #15mm:
“A jeté battu is a basic jeté
that beats.”
