Fun Friday Flop




Fun Friday Flop

The verb “flop” means: to fall, move, or hang in a heavy, loose and ungainly way. For a performer or a show it means: be completely unsuccessful; fail totally.

Whew! This is why there is no flopping in ballet! No flopping in technique or the scary thought of having a performance flop. No ungainly movements, No shows that flop. There is no flopping in ballet, period.

Of course, at the end of a long, hard day flopping on the sofa or into bed is permitted.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Statute #152:
“There is no flopping in ballet.”
