Wacky Wednesday Sleeves
Droopy arms are a common problem in
ballet. Here’s a prop that can help.
Put on a long-sleeved jacket or shirt
and notice how the arms lengthen naturally as they slide into the sleeves. If
the arms are limp or droopy, it is difficult to get the shirt on.
Now imagine that same long feeling as
you shape the arms in second. The arms are curved slightly, but the energy is
the same – it just follows the gentle curve.
From the Big
Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #20bb:
“Use a shirt or jacket to illustrate lengthening the
arms.”
