Ballet knowledge
Nervous. It means stretching the foot, and it is best to let the foot surface protrude to increase the aesthetic feeling of the foot shape and the expressive force of the foot. At the same time, foot stretching can increase the strength and flexibility of ankle joint. For example, when jumping, your feet should be stretched straight and sharp when you leave the ground, so that the lines of the whole leg look beautiful and smooth. This is the same as gymnasts and divers' requirements for feet.
Straight man. It means that the knees of the main leg (support leg) and the extended leg (strength leg) should be straight. In other words, stretch the muscles of your legs to the maximum. Take the most common ballet dance "First Allah Beske" as an example. Turn out as far as possible, straighten your knees and lift your left leg back 90. Turn out as far as possible and straighten your knees, as shown in Figure 3. Straightening the knees is mainly to make many dances in ballet stretch, with long lines and perfect visual modeling. The straightness here can also be found in the illustrations of the second, third and fourth dances of Allah Beske.
Stand up. It means that the body should be tall and straight, and the center of gravity should be accurately placed on the center of gravity of two legs or one leg. Actors are required to tuck in their stomachs and expand their chests, and they must never pout and stoop. The actor's incorrect figure or center of gravity will affect the accurate completion of various dance movements and techniques.
Light. It means dancing lightly and freely. For example, when jumping, it is best not to hear any sound when pushing the ground to the ground. At the same time, you should dance easily. Even if the actor is very hard and tired, try not to let the audience see and feel it.
Quasi. It refers to the specification requirements for accurately completing each movement and dance. For example, in ballet, there are strict rules for the movement of arms. Even when doing difficult skills, the actor's arm is required to walk in strict accordance with the prescribed route, and he must never be insane and wave wildly. Another example is the technique that ballet dancers often do two laps in the air, which requires the actors to take off from the exact five places and then land in the exact five places after completing 720 laps in the air. This is what we often say: clean and accurate movements.
Steady. It means to be steady and sell. For example, there are many spinning movements in ballet, which require the actors to maintain good stability when spinning, and to stop firmly in a dance posture when ending the spinning. If the actors stagger when they turn and don't stop when they stop, then this kind of rotation is not only beautiful, but also a failure. Another example is that an actress often needs to stop dancing with one leg and one foot, so if she falls down before stopping, it will also ruin the good impression of the audience.
Beauty. It means that dance should be beautiful, every movement, every dance style and every movement process should be beautiful. Ballet is the art of time and space. It is not only restricted by time like time art-music, but also occupies a certain space like space art-sculpture. At the same time, it is a visual art with strong ornamental value. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that ballet is the art with the highest requirement for beauty, and it is also the most beautiful art created by mankind so far. Of course, it is not easy to reach a higher level in the most beautiful art. In this sense, ballet is also a very cruel art. People generally think that dancing is interesting, jumping and relaxing, but it is not. Ballet requires very high figures of the actors, so the selection of materials is very strict.
