    When you brush/lift your leg at the back part. Do you move your spine and hip back or you keep the hip and spine super straight all the time?

  • @everydayballet

    @everydayballet

    Жыл бұрын

    Great question! In dégagé the leg is low so the hips and spine should remain super straight. Feel like the tailbone is lengthening towards the floor as you “zip the jeans” (hug in at the lower core) and brush the foot behind. This will prevent the back from arching and the pelvis from tipping. Hope this helps! 🥰🩰✨

    @@everydayballet Okey well that explains why teachers commented that my butt is out. They didn't explain it in this detail so I never understood what I was doing wrong. Even in other type of dances they want aperantly the same posture as in the ballet. . Thanks for answering my question.

    You’re welcome! One more tip-do not tuck the pelvis. Keeping the spine tall relies requires a neutral (not tucked) pelvis. You can check out my Turnout and Posture videos for more info m. I hope this helps! 🙏🩰💐

    I can't figure out the difference between certain moves. Like a Jete, a Degage, a Fondu, and an Adagio! A Frappe and a Pique. Etc. Most videos I follow go from calling the steps one thing to another and I'm not sure where the change came in.

  • @everydayballet

    I understand how confusing it can be! Yes, we dancers do call the same step by different names sometimes. This is because the ballet terms describe the action of a step, and there can be multiple ways to describe the movements. Beyond the movement action, the direction and position of the steps change too--so it gets very muddled sometimes! Dégagé is a great example--Dégagé means "disengaged", which describes how the foot separates from the floor. But many dancers will also use the term "glissé" (meaning "gliding") because that describes the way the foot brushes or glides along the floor to disengage. We also sometimes call it a "jeté" (meaning "thrown") because that describes the force that is used to propel the foot away from the body and off of the floor... See what I mean about it getting confusing??! 😉 As you learn more about ballet, you'll hear the same group of terms used to describe a step and become familiar with ballet-speak... It's not always a one-to-one correspondence between a ballet term and a ballet step. Hopefully knowing that will make it a bit easier/less confusing on some level. Here's my Basics playlist if you'd like a really thorough intro to the names of the steps and why they are called what they're called: kzread.info/head/PLndbff-Q6PM3D13wh5024yzBKCpPh2FKH Hope this helps! 🤞🏻🥰🩰

    I still can’t do it. Or rather idk if I’m doing it properly. I have hyperextended knees

  • @everydayballet

    @everydayballet

    Жыл бұрын

    Hi! Hyper extension can make dégagé more difficult. Try pulling up through the thighs instead of locking back into the knees. At first, you may feel like your knees are not fully straight because you’re used to locking the knees backwards in hyperextension. It is much harder to use the feet if the knees are locked, so the trick is to pull up through the front of the thighs while trying to push and brush through the feet. This will take practice, so don’t worry if it doesn’t feel right at first. As the feet, ankles, and legs get stronger you’ll see that you can do dégagé very well! Hope this helps! 🙏🥰🩰
