Ballet Extra Class

Attended ballet class today, 3-4:30PM. This is an extra class actually so only few of us were practicing. The CSTD ballet examination is in the middle of July. Me and my partner (we sit for the exam as a pair) is on 16th of July, 4:30-5:30PM. I'm really excited about it and I aim for the best result. I will definitely put more more effort on it.


The place where we have ballet class every Saturday. Going to have a renovation before the examination.


Arabesque [a-ra-BESK], one of the poses in ballet where body supported by one leg, with another leg extended at the right angles to it, and the arms held in various harmonious position.


Attitude [a-tee-TEWD], body supported by one leg with another leg lifted at the back, the knee bent at 90 degree. Lifted leg has to be well turned out so that the knee is higher than the foot.


Retiré [ruh-tee-RAY]. Another poses in ballet where the pointed toe rests in front (or behind or to the side) of the supporting knee


Preparation stap, fifth position with right foot Devant [duh-VAHN]=right foot in front
Guess which one is me..
