Insight: Ballet glossary - bourrée en couru

[DreamsontheWater]

God, that's beautiful! I *like* it that people don't realise that these are so painful to do - I don't think it would be very nice to dance for an audience who was thinking, 'Oh, that poor girl, let this end quickly, for her!' I'd much rather let them watch it and think, 'Let this go on for ever; it's so beautiful!'

I was flinching and rolling in pain watching this.

[KiliniLove]

@TheChaiTeaLatte Yes i am one from these people. How painful can be this, i cant understand , and i am for pointe this summer!!!

[HereticSonGoku]

@TheChaiTeaLatte oh, I figured it was painful. ^^' As I just barely finished watching the NutCracker, and the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy...all I could think was- "Charley Horse!...CHARLEY HORSE!!!.....that poor girls toes. TxT]" so I feel for you Ballet Dancers, Ballerinas and Danseurs. I REALLY do.
