Ballet

The Nutcracker

It depends on the rules of your studio. YOu probably just need to work on your balance so you can hold passe for however long they want you to hold it.

The first recorded performance of a ballet was in 1581, entitled Le Ballet Comique de la Reine, or the comic ballet of the queen.

At the New York City Ballet, experienced ballet dancers earn $1,500 per week. Ballet dancers with star status can make $3,000 to $5,000 per performance working for major companies.

Its up to your teacher and how ready he or she thinks you are. You will probably need a few years of experience before going on pointe. It isn't likely that you could become a professional or anything when starting so late.

Position your feet so they are in a 'v', and then, keeping your heels together, move your toes outwards. When your 'turn out' is better you will be able to get them so they are a horizontal line.

First position with the arms has the arms held out, with the palms of the hands across from the bellybutton (or slightly lower). Elbows should be slightly rounded, and shoulders down.

in ballet there are different techneics and pointe shoes are to dance on toeand to work your ankles. so really, there is no meaning, its just a techneic or another form of ballet.

The vamp is the part on a pointe shoe, which can be altered depending on the length of a girl's toes. The vamp is the front part of the shoe. To be more visual, if you were standing on a pointe shoe, the front of your foot/toes would be touching it.

The correct spelling is Cecchetti.

Traditionally, there are five (see related links). However, more recently a sixth position has become pretty mainstream, and that position is just your two feet together, parallel and touching.

Caca is the difrence.

Modern ballet took form around 1600 in Europe. However, it appeared in different forms long before this time period. Ballet had roots that date back to ancient Greece. Theatre was a huge part of the ancient Greek society and theatrical dance was a key component of this. But one main difference was that there were no women dancers. All men!

not as many as girls - i can tell u that much!

You have to stretch daily and hold your stretches long enough to improve you. It also depends where you are on your splits. If you are an inch from the ground then u can learn it in a week. If u are 10 inches from the ground it might take a little longer then 1 week.

OR; You can open you're legs into a second position and get up against the wall. Then just try to get closer and closer to the wall and hopefully that can stretch out your legs enough to do the split. But like that comment above, just keep on stretching and find out how close you are to the ground (:

No one knows who made ballet. All people know are tales about who created ballet. All that most people know is that it was invented a long time ago.

Agnes de Mille was a choreographer and dancer. she started dancing when she was little around the time whenher sister started dancing. her sister was told to start dancing because her doctor told her that she had flat feet. de Mill continued dancing, and when she got to college, her professors said that she was too fat to dance. she loved dancing so she continued regardless of what everyone said. de mille also choreographed dances. She was the choreographer of many things, including the musical 'Oklahoma'.

Winging your foot takes a lot of time and practice, and it does not come easily. I practice by pointing my entire foot, not using my toes, but my ankle and tops of my feet. You should not rely on your toes to point your foot, you will (or have learned) learn this when starting en pointe. Simple beginning practices include sitting on the ground in parallel (like the stretch) and holding your ankles together. Try to push the tops of your feet away from each other while keeping your ankles touching. Another one (for pointe) is trying to get the entire box of the shoe on the floor when doing tendu-s. Don;t compromise the proper technique of tendus while doing this, however. Keep stretching out your feet. Once working en pointe for a few years the winged foot will just come. Until then, your keep practicing.

The Nutcracker is usually a regular cotton top with tights. And they have a headpiece made out of some wood, plastic, or some type of paper mache material.

Still Life at the Penguin Cafe was created in 1988.

A plié (pronounced plee-ay) is when you are in one of the five positions (first, second, third, fourth, or fifth position) and turn out and bend your knees outwards to the side while still keeping your heels on the floor. That is a demi plie. A grande plie is when you go all the way down and your heels do come off of the floor. You should always be tight in your butt and stomach. Keep your chin lifted and have a pleasant look on your face whenever you are dancing.

Ballet is a very difficult but very graceful form of art.

The word ballet was borrowed from the French around 1630. The French term was originated from the Italian word balletto (from the Latin ballo/ballare) to dance.

It depends on your favorite type of dance. If you like more modern ballet, you would go with the English ballet. If you enjoy classical ballet, you would probably vote Russian. Personally, I like both.
