Terminology Tuesday Angel
Temps
de lange [tahn-duh lahnzh] is a
seldom-heard term in ballet. It means angel’s
step.
It is like a temp de poisson, but the
legs are in attitude and slightly apart, as opposed to the straight, together
legs of the poissson. The back is arched, and the head back. The jump lands in
the same place it started.
Add another one to your mental
dictionary!
From the Big
Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #30c:
