A Ballerina's Dream.
Children decide what sports or hobbies will interest them. Dance and more importantly, ballet has become increasingly popular among children. Take this essay to your first lesson in ballet class. Here we are introduced to five positions know by every ballerina.
There are five positions in ballet. Knowing these positions, you will be able to do any ballet step you desire. Before you start, a ballerina must wear the appropriate attire, which includes a black body suit, pink tights, pink ballet shoes, and hair must be worn away from the face. Now we are ready to begin. To start set your feet in a V shape where both heels are touching. This is called first position. First position is mainly used to start the Pliés. In French Pliés mean to melt. Pliés are done in four more positions, which will help you through the steps of ballet. From first, your going to slide either your left or right foot away from the opposite foot. Now you are standing in second position. Third position is next. Taking either foot and place your heel in the instep, which is the arc in your foot. Either with the right or left you are going to take the foot and place it away from the other, making sure even though the feet are not touching that the heel on the left or right is lined up with the toes of the opposite foot. This is fourth position. From fourth you bring the foot that's furthest away and place the heel so that it is touching the toes of the opposite foot, this is fifth position. The sixth position is the easiest of all. It involves placing your feet together. This step is only used to open to first.
Now that you know the basics watch out for common mistakes. Try not to turn out your feet too much, the problem with this is that over turnout feet can cause you to lose your balance, or cause a knee injury in the long run.
