Wacky Wednesday Round Top



Wacky Wednesday Round Top

Earlier this week I talked about following an imaginary dotted line with the leading foot during a series of turns. See Ballet Secret #14vvv.

Here’s a way to visualize the proper path for a series of turns moving in a circle. Picture a giant, round table placed in the exact center of the stage or the room. The turns move along the outside edge of the round top of this table – skirting close to it but never moving away from it or (gasp!) into it.

Sometimes it helps to visualize this table as having a glass, or clear top.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Ballet Secret #14www:
“Imagine a giant, round table in the center.”
