Fun Friday Corner
Fouettés and à la seconde turns are fun and challenging. The most
important thing is to maintain a constant position when in second, and use the plié.
No surprise here.
But something that may surprise you is
that the plié (and in fouettés the plié with the extension from attitude to
devant) happens as the dancer faces the corner.
That’s right and you can see it in today’s video below – if you aren’t
distracted by watching her pirouettes!
Anyway, in à la seconde turns and fouettés, the plié happens as
the dancer faces the corner, not directly front.
From the Big
Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #14uu:
“In à la seconde turns or fouettés, plié facing the
corner, not directly front.”
