  • they're good... clear steps.. really helped me alot!! thanks! could you perhaps make more videos like these for RAD intermediate vocabulary.. i just started vocational grade.. thanks!!

  • are they en pointe? or are they broken downs?

  • that is RAD style isn't it?

  • yes it is

  • grand jete you brush not develepe like a saut de chat but veryy good!

  • depending on the style of ballet, steps have different names.

  • She's my sister, the one on my left!:) they are he best in their class!

  • the exhappe battu ferme with change of feet is called chappe saute battu change

  • Terminology is dependant on the syllabus of ballet. In ISTD ballet, those are petit jetes. =) I've personally never heard the term "ambote" relating to that movement. Which syllabus is that used in?

  • maybe she is talking about "emboité" ?

  • what you are doing is not a petit jete... its called ambote

  • @love4ballet2

    If you are going to correct someone, make sure you spell check. The term is emboite and it is the same as a petit jete. Russian and Cecchetti methods use emboite and the French school calls them petit jete.

  • on the grande jete part they are doing sodachas

  • did you mean " saut de chat"

    jump of the cat?

  • Jump of the cat is a "pas de chat". These girls are doing saut de chats, not grand jete's.

  • i think pas de chat is step of the cat and saut de chat is jump of the cat. but im not sure... :/

  • Perfectly executed!!! bravo!!!

  • they are too young to go pointe.!

  • Thank you!! They look like they're five or something!!

  • THEY'RE MY FRIENDS :D

  • the petite jetes en tournant looks like an emboite

  • I Don't Think the Shoes They Are Wearing Are Full Pointes From what I Can See There Demi Pointes.

  • they r doing ok 4 little girls......but their positions need 2 be more clear and they should work on getting some height in their jumps.................... :o

  • me encanto

  • they are wAy too young to be on pointe. A dancer's feet have to be strong enough, these girls look to be around 8. The bones in the feet are not ready at that age for pointe shoes. What was this instructor thinking??

  • these girls are 13 years old.

  • pardon me then

  • they look like they might be de-shanked? Like in pre-pointe classes.

  • please help i have been doing ballet since I was 3 and am now 13 and still not on pointe. I go to an istd dance school and i have heard that an rad school you go on pointe quicker is this true and what can I do to make my teacher notice that i am ready for pointe work

    thanks

  • just work really hard at the arc in your foot!! I know that it's really hard to wait!!!

  • Hi BillyBennyJess. An RAD dance school will not put you on pointe any earlier if you are not ready. My daughter ended up on pointe young as she did RAD Inter Foundation exam and you need a bit of pointe for that grade. She built up from there. Apologies if someone already answered this question as I see it is an old one! :0) You are maybe on pointe now?

  • yea, i do RAD and i started pointe work when i was 11.

  • yea i agree wit candy... wen u do higher grades, u hv 2 do jumps (n u hv 2 land softly), split in de air n do pirouttes lik 2-3 times... im evn tryin vry hard 2 cope wit it... haiz... 2 bad im born wit out de arch... haiz...

  • well ballet takes alot of strength... and muscles

    by the way echappe to second should go through fifth in the air if u know what i mean

  • is ballet easy cause i am intending to have classes!

  • Ballet is not easy but it's still a lot of fun. It's challenging to learn especially at first, but when you get the hang of it and start getting even just some steps right, it feels great!

    You should take classes! :)

    Good luck! :D

  • i agree with afnan1028, u should go into the class not expecting it to be easy, just work really hard and i bet it'll go great!

  • You're welcome! Do I know you? =D

  • haha! so sarca~

  • Thanx! =D
