Terminology Tuesday Pressée
There are many different kinds of
glissades and here is one: glissade pressée.
The term means glissade hurried, or pressed and is the same as glissade précipitée which also means hurried.
If this isn’t enough, glissade piquée which means glissade pricked is also the same as glissade précipitée which presumably
makes it the same as glissade pressée.
Regardless, any of these terms refer to
a glissade that moves quickly and is about half the size of a normal glissade.
