Fun Friday
Ceiling Attachment
I’ve talked
before about good ballet posture and how it helps to imagine a string that’s
attached to the top of your head being pulled upward and ever-so-slightly
forward.
Now think of
this during any pirouette: A string, connected to the ceiling and to the top of
your head. It stays firm, lengthened and taut during the pirouette, preventing
the body from deviating in any other direction.
I like to
think of this as the “string theory” of pirouettes.
From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #14dd:
“During pirouettes, imagine a string
attached from your head to the ceiling.”

“String
theory makes sense to me because the universe is a symphony that creates
harmony with the vibration of our strings.”
