Mad Monday Circular



Mad Monday Circular

Circular port de bras often end up being somewhat less than circular. It is particularly difficult to keep the circle perfect during the back “corners” because they tend to get clipped off. This effectively ruins the circular path and turns it into an angular one.

To help maintain the circle, imagine drawing a large circle in the air with your head. Also, be vigilant about filling out every “corner”, especially the ones during the back portion.

Circle power!

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #6jjj:
“In a circular port de bras, imagine drawing a large circle with your head.”
