Mad Monday Juicy Plié



Mad Monday Juicy Plié

Here’s another way to visualize pliés: think of them as juicy. Rich and flowing with flavor – not dried out and tasteless. Don’t you just love food imagery?!

The problem with pliés is usually just that: when they aren’t fully utilized they become tight and crunchy like old leaves. Crunchy pliés are not only useless, but can be potentially harmful. Landing a jump with a plié that is as brittle as an old leaf is downright scary!

So imagine your pliés being rich and juicy instead.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #2ff:
“A plié should be juicy.”
