Marvelous Monday Hub






Marvelous Monday Hub

If you watch accomplished dancers, you will notice that the majority of the time the torso, and particularly the pelvis, doesn’t move, or change, much. That’s because everything works off of the torso and pelvis.

The pelvis is like the hub of a wheel. The hub of a wheel is attached to the axle, and must stay firm so the wheel can turn. If the hub (pelvis) tilts or twists the wheel will no longer work efficiently – or at all.

So think of the torso, and particularly the pelvis, as the hub of a wheel. The arms, legs, and the head all work from that stable place.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:
Ballet Secret #10ppp:
Imagine your pelvis as the hub of a wheel.”
