🩰✨ Tiny Dancers, Big Ballet Skills!
Today, our tiny ballerina is demonstrating a beautiful ballet combination: Tendu, Passé, Tendu, and Close to First Position! 💕
Did you know? 💡
🩰 Tendu means “stretched” in French. The dancer extends the foot along the floor while pointing the toes.
🩰 Passé means “passed.” The dancer lifts one foot toward the supporting knee, developing balance, coordination, and control.
🩰 Close to First Position means bringing the feet back together into the starting ballet position.
✨ Stretch, lift, stretch, and close!
This combination encourages our young dancers to connect multiple ballet movements while developing balance, coordination, body awareness, and muscle memory.
At Dazzle, we introduce ballet combinations through repetition, musicality, and age-appropriate instruction, allowing our tiny dancers to build confidence and improve their technique over time.
💕 Little steps today, strong ballet foundations tomorrow!
