Wacky Wednesday Pisa
Sometimes balancing in passé is achieved
even when the alignment isn’t perfect. This is simply because the dancer’s
weight is evenly distributed - if
slightly tilted – or, in rare cases due to the sheer will of the dancer to make
it happen regardless.
I’ve even seen dancers pirouette with a
slight lean in their posture. It gives the turn a curious, warped look. Not
something that is desired in ballet.
Therefore, avoid leaning tower of Pisa
passés please.

Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #18p:
“There are no Pisa passés.”

Quote of the Day:
“Sure, the
Leaning Tower of Pisa leaned like everyone else said it would, the mountains of
Tibet were more beautiful than you had ever expected, and the Pyramids of Egypt
stood mysteriously in the sea of sand like in the pictures; yet is it the
environment or rather the openness in mindset, that makes up the elusive
essence of happiness that we experience when we travel?”
