Technical Tuesday Tights
I have often thought that it would be helpful to have a pair
of tights with a variety of lines and arrows painted on them. It would be a great visual aid for beginners,
allowing them to see exactly where things should go.
For example, a single line running down the center front of
the tights from the “teotard line” down the front of the thigh, through the
center of the knee, down through the center of the shinbone and finishing on
the top center of the foot. Imagine it!
This would help in many areas, but especially in teaching
how the knees must align over the feet during pliés. Simply use the “easy tights line” to line up
a perfect plié!
