Ballet

At the end of the film, Billy is seen all grown up, dancing with a professional Ballet Company, as his friend, brother, and Father happily watch.

You usually wear tights under a leotard, but sometimes you might need to wear a bra... Usually warm-ups (including shirts, sweatshirts, pants, wool tights, jumpsuits, and sweaters) are worn on the outside of the leotard. You are not supposed to wear underwear under your leotard because it looks amateurish and not very neat, but some and/or most little ballet dancer (4-6 years old) wear underwear. They usually grow out of this habit, though. (:

In class, ballet dancers will do exercises at the barre to improve certain areas of their technique, such as turnout, strength, endurance, balance, or the execution of a certain move.

Outside of class, the number of training methods are vast and vary between region, company, and dancer.

Many use elastic resistance bands to train, tone, and strengthen muscles. Training using weights and resistance machines is also common.

Dancers will also stretch very frequently, as flexibility is a must in ballet.

A young male dancer, is nowadays known as just that ' A Dancer.' The formal name is 'DANSEUR' but it is really a bit over the top for everyday use.

It depends on where you live. you can buy them at liberts online store.

It depends on what course you want to enter. I think the youngest age that they accept is 8 years old but that is only for the junior associates which isn't full-time. If you want to go full-time then you have to be 11 or above. Why dont you check their website?

The Washington Ballet was created in 1976.

Odette (the white swan) and Odile (the black swan)

an element of time used in dance would be the waltz. i think 2 adjectives that would describe the energy of ballet would be graceful, and beautiful. an example of the type of movement through which this can be seen i would say would be grand jetes (or big leaps in the air)

Ballet terminology is in French or Russian, depending on how its taught. There are many different steps in ballet, so there are many different words for each. There are however, 5 main positions, 1-5. However there are far too many steps to list, here are a few, arabesque, frappe, and plie.

MOdern is a newer type of ballet that uses a lot of emotion and expressing of the feellings while acting out a part. Classical does not use the same emotion as modern but you still are actiong out a part.

No, Maria Tallchief does not still do ballet. She retired from her professional career in 1966. However, she is still alive and teaching/inspiring young dancers today!

Ballet is a combination between both. That is one of the best thing about ballet, one of the reasons that it is so amazing to watch, the opposition and the idea that you can be firm and soft at the same time, the idea that you can have more than one quality that characterizes your movement at one time.

As far as improving and the technical side of ballet goes you need both coordination and balance in order to have correct alignment and overall to do steps correctly.

Example:

A pirouette needs both balance to allow you to get around and not fall out of your turn, or even try for multiples but it also needs the coordination of your arms closing in order to gain momentum and the coordination of your spot in order to be able to get around or even do more turns.

it was in 1946 maria marries George Balanchine in New York City!

Ballerina flowers is another name for the Fuschia flower. The Fucschia flower gets its name from its fuschia color. It is a flower that grows on shrubs and resembles a ballerina skirt.

If they are relatively new, it may just be because they havent been broken in properly yet, so try bending them and kneading the ends to soften the fabric. Also, wearing them around the house can help to mould them to the shape of your feet just like with Pointe shoes. Sometimes shoes can hurt a lot at first, but once they are softened they'll usually be okay.

If they still hurt, it may be best to look to into getting a new pair, as wearing shoes that don't fit right can be very bad for your feet. Even if they were professionally fitted mistakes are often made. (I had a pair of pointe shoes once that the fitter took two hours selecting and they still ended up hurting a lot and I had to change them.) The fitter may be able to give you a refund if you complain enough!

If you're still concerned, speak with your dance teacher and s/he will give you the best advice from actually looking at the shoes.

Hope this helps!

I think the teacher would get mad and I don't even see why they would want to.
