Gradually I begin to understand that dancing is becoming a big and important part of my life, along with music and vocals. Of course, work is to blame for this. And also the movie "Step Up". It's so cool to be able to dance, to combine ballet and street dance. So far, neither one nor the other has been given to me, but now I'm already beginning to understand the classic machine. Thanks to "Rhythms" - Yulia Vladimirovna explains everything very clearly to the guys, and I also listen and remember.

When a throw is made with the foot forward or backward, the head looks to the side (center of the class), and when the foot is thrown to the side, the head looks straight.
With battement tendu, the foot is brought forward with the heel. In general, where the heel is directed is very important. For if you send it in the wrong direction, there will be no sense in the movement. I tried it myself last night.
When jumping, it is important to jump as high as possible and hang in the air for as long as possible. Only then can you have time to change position in the air from 5 to 2, from 5 to 5, etc.
Preparation for jumping (plié) must be very active so that the mortal, heavy and loose body is still pushed up.
According to the rules of classical graphics, you need to end the movement in the same position in which you started. With rare exceptions, which must be negotiated.
Demi plie(demiplie)- semi-squats (Fig. 8). It is important to achieve maximum bending of the legs in the knee joints without separating the heels from the floor. The weight of the body is evenly distributed on both feet without "blockage" on the big toe. The knees and feet keep the eversion position all the time, without violating the correct positions. The back is kept straight. The exercise is performed in I, II, III positions, less often and only at the support - in V, IV positions.

Grand plie (grand plie). When performing the exercise (Fig. 9), you should keep your heels on the floor as long as possible - the movement is performed through demi plie. When straightening your legs, you need to put your heels on the floor as early as possible. It is necessary to rise on half-toes and put the heels on the floor at the same time with both legs. Throughout the exercise, the maximum eversion of the hips and feet is maintained. The weight of the body is evenly distributed on both legs, without "blockage" on the big toes.

Batman(battement)- abduction of the working leg in any direction and its return to the supporting leg. Each type of batman has its own form and independent name.

Batman tandyu sample(battement tendu simple) - putting the foot forward, to the side, back on the toe. The exercise contributes to the development of lifting the leg and strengthening the ankle joint, and is preparatory for mastering a number of subsequent movements of this classification group. When performing batman tandyu, the eversion leg is retracted with a sliding movement from positions I, III, V forward, to the side, back to the toe and returns to and. n. The movement should be performed in a straight line from the heel of the supporting leg to the toe of the retracted leg and back (Fig. 10). Sliding of the leg is performed first with the entire foot with a gradual separation of the heel from the floor to the position of the most retracted toe without resting on the toe in the final position. With a similar sliding movement, the leg returns to and. n. The support is straightened at the knee. The center of gravity is on the supporting leg. The working leg maintains an eversion position.

Batman tandu demi plie(battement tendu demi plie) - a combination of leg abduction followed by adduction and a semi-squat on two legs (Fig. 11). When performing the exercise, it is necessary to achieve complete unity of the two movements. To do this, bending the legs at the knees begins a little earlier than the working leg returns to position 1 or III. The body is held straight, the weight of the body with demi plie is evenly distributed on both feet.

Batman tandyu pimp(battement tendu soutenu) - is an exercise from the combination of simultaneously performed leg leads-adductions with a semi-squat on the supporting one. In this case, the body deviates somewhat in the direction opposite to the working leg. After performing the exercise with the face, sideways to the support, the form of this movement becomes more complicated: i. p. - right in front on the toe (IV position) through the I position to the right position back on the toe. In the future, it is possible to complicate the exercise with various hand movements, lifting on half-fingers, changing the direction of movement.

Batman tandyu zhete(battement tendu jete) - this exercise is profiling for all swing movements. Unlike batman, tandyu is performed with the toe off the floor when retracted from and. n. In fact, it is a swing to a height of about 25 ° (Fig. 12). The movement should be clear, unified, energetic. The legs maintain an eversion position, the center of gravity is on the supporting leg. Hands in II position.

Batman tandyu jete pointe (battement tendu jete pointe). In principle, this movement does not differ from the batman tandyu jet, however, after the abduction, the leg does not close into position, but is placed with the toe on the floor. The exercise can be performed 2-3 times in a row, then the leg is closed in the III position (Fig. 13). When the movement becomes more difficult, the leg is transferred along a low arc from the right (left) position in front, behind on the toe (IV position) to the side to the toe and back or “cross”.

Double batman tandu(double battement tendu) is a kind of batman tandu. It is performed with lowering the heel to the floor in position II: with one, two or three or more lowering (Fig. 14). At the moment of lowering the heel to the floor, the center of gravity remains on the supporting leg. The emphasis of the movement coincides with the lowering of the heel to the floor.

Batman frappe(battement frappe)- flexion and extension of the lower leg at an angle of 45 ° (Fig. 15). Before starting to study the movement, the position of the leg is mastered. sur le cou de pied(sur le coup-de-pied) (Fig. 16) . In gymnastics, the forward position (conditional) is used - the leg is bent at the knee, the toe is in front at the ankle of the supporting leg, the thigh is turned backwards - the toe is pressed from behind at the ankle of the supporting leg. Batman frappe consists in quickly bending the lower leg from and. n. right (left) to the side in the position of sur le cou de pied in front or behind with a light blow on the supporting leg, followed by extension forward, sideways, back. The exercise is performed with a sharp, strong movement. In this case, the hip and knee retain the eversion position. Since the exercise starts from I.P. leg to the side, then before the start, the leg from I, III positions through the batman tandyu opens to the side, while the arm rises from the preparatory position through I to II position.

There is a more complicated version batman double frappe(battement double frappe) , characterized by a double "hit" of the working leg at the supporting ankle.

Batman fondue(battement fondu)- a combination of a semi-squat on the supporting leg with simultaneous bending of the free one on sur le cou de pied in front (rear) with subsequent extension of the working leg and straightening of the supporting leg (Fig. 17).

It is performed forward, to the side, back, with the toe to the floor, with the leg raised by 45, 90 °. When bending the leg to the position of sur le cu de pied, the thigh should not be lowered immediately, first the knee is bent, and the thigh is held motionless at a height of 45 °, then gradually lowers along with the lower leg to the final position. When the batman frappe is performed at 90°, the leg is first lowered to 45°, then bent as described above. Musical time signature 2/4 or 4/4.

Double batman fondue(double battement fondu) . The movement begins with demi-plié on the supporting one, then the half-toes are lifted, but the free leg does not open in the given direction, but lingers in the position bent at the ankle; then the semi-squat on the supporting leg is repeated again with simultaneous straightening of the free leg by 45 or 90 °; at the moment of the final straightening of the free leg, the supporting leg is also straightened, ending with a rise to the half-toes.

Grand Batman Jete(grand battement jet) - swing your legs forward, to the side, back (Fig. 18). The movement is performed through the batman tandyu until the toe touches the floor, then the leg rises to the maximum height and returns to the sp through the batman tandyu. (I or III position).

Gran Batman Jete Balance(grand battement jet balance) - swings in the direction forward and backward by 90 ° and above through the I position (Fig. 19). The movement can be performed to the side: in I.P. facing the support or in the middle of the hall alternately with one and the other foot. Perhaps a combination with a tilt of the body, lifting on half-toes, half-squats.

Grand Batman Jete Pointe(grand battement jete pointe) performed like a grand batman jet, but until the toe touches the floor (Fig. 20).

Grand Batman Jete Passe(grand battement jete passe) performed according to the rules of Grand Batman Jete, but with the transfer of the leg from one direction to another using the technique passe (passe)(Fig. 21): the leg is bent, the thigh is turned out, the knee is to the side, the toe is at the supporting knee, without touching it. Runs forward and backward. Musical size 2/4.

batman devloppe(battement developpe) performed forward, to the side, backward by 90 ° and above (Fig. 22). From position III, the working leg, bending and sliding with an outstretched toe, rises to the knee of the supporting leg, after which it straightens in any direction and descends to the SP. Throughout the movement, the thigh maintains maximum eversion; when the leg is straightened, the knee does not drop. When moving forward and to the side, the body remains straight, backward - slightly leans forward. Musical size 2/4, 4/4.

Batman devloppe passe (battement developpe passe). The working leg rises, then bends, the toe goes under the supporting knee without touching it (passe position), after which the leg rises again in any direction.
Batman devloppe with leg abduction 1/4 of the circle. The working leg is brought forward, then retracted to the side and lowered into and. n. The same is done in the opposite direction. Then the leg is lifted to the side and retracted forward or backward.
Batman devloppe with leg abduction 1/4 of the circle. The leg from the III position is raised forward by 90 ° and higher, the extended leg is retracted through the side back and lowered to the III position. Similarly, it is performed in the opposite direction.

Batman devloppe balance (battement developpe passe). The leg rises forward, to the side, back, then with a short movement slightly lowers and immediately abruptly returns to its previous height. Musical time signature 2/4 and 4/4.

Ron de jambe (rond de jambe). This type of exercise includes leg movements in an arc on the floor and in the air. The movement of the leg in an arc back, sideways, forward, that is, directed towards the supporting leg, is called en dedan (en dedans). The movement of the leg in an arc forward, to the side, back, that is, directed from the supporting leg, is called en deor (en dehors). Exercises of this group contribute to the development of mobility of the hip joints, eversion of the legs.

Ron de jambe par terre (rond de jambe par terre)- movement of the outstretched leg in an arc, touching the toe of the floor (Fig. 23). The exercise is performed with a uniform movement of the outstretched leg in an arc, separating the fingers from the floor. The thigh is in an eversion position, the weight of the body is on the supporting leg.

Ron de Jamb en Lair(rond de jambe en l'air) - circular movements of the lower leg in the air (Fig. 24). From i.p. right (left) to the side at a height of 45 ° circular movements of the lower leg, while bending the knee inward (an deor), outward (an dedan) until the toe touches the calf muscle. The thigh is in a reversible position.

Grand ron de jamb jete (grand rond de jambe jete) - a large swing of the leg in an arc of 90 ° in the direction of an deor and an dedan.

Batman in Rhythmic Gymnastics

Rhythmic gymnastics is an amazing sport in its facets: both severe technique and the elegant tandu batman are manifested here. Successfully intertwining strength and endurance, gymnastics still brings up aesthetic taste in a girl, teaches choreography and musicality. Rhythmic gymnastics is based on dance and sports, so choreography plays a huge role. And it will be difficult for the uninitiated to immediately understand the terms, features and rules.

Batman tandyu - battement tendu

Choreography lessons in rhythmic gymnastics are present everywhere - both in warm-ups, and in training, and in every combination of numbers. Of course, the numbers can be performed in different styles - from modern to historical, but at the heart of each movement is classical dance. It is the classics in choreography - with its batman fonyu, batman frappe, batman hundred and other terms - the result of many years of practice, the experience of great choreographers and the basis for dancing in rhythmic gymnastics.

Any choreography training begins with the setting of movements at the barre. Such movements train skills, hone the ease and clarity of execution. One of these basic movements is the tandu batman. The very word batman (fr. "Battement") means the movement of a raised, retracted and bent leg. In this movement, the athlete leans on one leg - with the whole foot or only with her fingers - and the second, working leg performs the element.

Batman tandyu (battement tendu) literally translates as "tense, stretched." In this batman, the leg is alternately retracted back, to the side or forward, while the toes of the working leg are pointed with the toe to the floor. When the foot is retracted forward or backward, the angle between the body and the leg should be 90 degrees. When the leg moves to the side, it should be on the same level with the line of the shoulders. When performing the movement, both legs are in tension, extended.

Another variety of batman tandyu is battement tendu jeté. Here everything is performed similarly to the first movement, however, the leg must be raised by 45 degrees (at the beginning of classes, only 25 degrees can be raised). The leg torn off the floor must be held in this position for a few seconds, and then first return the foot to an extended distance, and only then bring the working leg to the supporting one.

Batman tandyu zhete strongly develops the muscles of the legs, their endurance in the air. It is very important when performing the movement that the body is collected and calm, and the shoulders do not rise. In whatever direction the working leg moves, the throw must occur exclusively in a straight line. And regardless of whether the leg is thrown to the right side, forward or backward, the height should always be the same.

Both of these movements are performed with the gymnast in the 1st or 5th position.

Batman fondue - battement fondu

Batman fondue takes its name from the French word fonder - "melt, melt". This movement is considered more difficult. The supporting leg in the hip joint is bent to the demi plie position, and the working leg is transferred to the lifting position - le cou-de-pied. From this position, the legs are straightened, and the working leg is retracted - back, sideways, forward.

They begin to master this batman, facing the stick of the machine, then hold on to the stick with only one hand. During the first lessons, the foot should remain on the floor, and as the movement is mastered, the working leg rises to 45 degrees. This exercise starts from the 5th position. At the beginning of mastering the movement, for each direction do no more than 4 repetitions in a row, and then alternate - 2 repetitions forward, 2 back, 2 - to the side. Batman fondue perfectly develops the elasticity of the legs and joints.

battement developpé

Batman devloppe takes its name from the French word developpé - "developed, expanded." The movement incredibly trains eversion and increases grace. The extended foot of the working leg takes the cou-de-pied position, and then begins to slide along the supporting leg, gradually reaching the middle of the knee. Then the working leg is retracted to the side, holding at a height of at least 90 degrees. At a height, the leg is fixed, and then returns to the knee of the supporting leg, following the rules of another batman - relevel.

Movement incredibly trains eversion and increases grace

Batman relevé lan - Battement relevé lent, in turn, dictates the following rules: the working leg is slowly retracted to the side, forward or backward, and then rises to the level of 90 degrees and lingers at this point. Lowering to the floor, the leg takes the initial 5th position, moving from the toe to the entire foot.

grand battement jeté

This big batman is great for developing stamina and muscle corset. Grand Batman Jete provides for a leg throw to a height of 90 degrees and even higher, but at the initial stage it is better to limit yourself to a right angle. The movement allows the body on the supporting leg to deviate forward when the working leg swings back, and vice versa - the body leans back when the leg is lifted forward. When the leg is lifted to the side, the body must remain in the same position.

The exercise is performed from the 5th position. The working leg is lifted up with a strong movement, being tense and extended. Then it falls on the toe, and only then the foot is brought to the foot of the supporting leg. It is permissible to make several leg raises without returning it to its original position.

They begin to study this movement, being facing the stick of the machine. In this position, you can work out the grand batman jet to the side and towards the back. Grand battement jeté forward For beginners, it is easier to train by already being sideways to the stick and holding it with one hand. At first, this batman is repeated 8 times in a row for each direction, then they alternate 4 times.

Batman frappe - Battement frappe

A variation of this batman is characterized by the word frapper, which in French means "beat, hit." At the heart of the batman frapé is a strike movement that perfectly develops the knee joints. It is recommended to master this movement, standing facing the machine.

Batman frapé starts from the initial 5th position, the right leg is brought forward. The working leg is brought to the 2nd position according to all the rules of the batman tandyu described above. The heel of the working leg is raised, the toe looks down. Then the outstretched leg sharply reaches for the supporting ankle, clasping it with the foot. For several counts, the leg remains in this position, after which it extends to the level of 45 degrees, freezes, and again returns to the kick to the ankle. This batman can be carried out in all three directions.

The emphasis in this movement always falls on the kick of the foot on the ankle. The hips and shoulders of the gymnast should be even, the body is extended, and the supporting leg should be in the position of maximum eversion. It is easier to study batman with 8 repetitions in a row of each direction, and then they can be alternated with each other, performing 4 times.

At the heart of the batman frapé is a strike movement that perfectly develops the knee joints.

We can safely say that the effectiveness of the performance depends on the level of choreographic training of the gymnast. The movements that form the basis of classical dances are able to surround the performance with grace, tenderness and aesthetics. In addition, performing these complex, and sometimes tedious repetitions, the athlete is obliged to “keep her face”, and this is an additional development of facial expressions, posture and the need to follow facial expressions. It's not a secret, after all, that judges, when evaluating performances in rhythmic gymnastics, pay serious attention to the gymnast's smile, her "experience" of the number and emotions.

A set of movements from classical dance form the foundation not only for the entire choreography, but also for rhythmic gymnastics. Although this set does not have all the array that is studied in ballet schools, but these few batmans and pliés are enough to develop the dancing abilities of girls. After all, not only legs are involved here, but also arms, face, body - and a gymnast stretched to a string turns into a stately graceful figure.

Terminology in ballet

This page is a glossary.

Looks like Russian. Movements: les fouettés en dedans et en dehors, les fouettés sautés, les fouettés sur pointes ou demi-pointes:

A pique is made on the right foot, the left foot rises forward, a tour takes place on the toe (sur la pointe) or demi-pointe (demi-pointe) and the left leg remains extended in the air. ends in en arabesque sur pointe (ou demi-pointe).

Fouetté en tournant at 45° en dehors. If in the Russian school during the tour the right leg touches behind the calf of the supporting left leg, then goes on touching the calf of the left leg in front (like a petit Battement), then here the working leg makes a demi rond by 45 °, which gives the movement an additional force, but it is dangerous " releasing the hip”, which can cause the ballerina to go off the axis, and the Fouetté gets to move forward or to the side.

1. Grand Fouette. It has something from both French and Italian schools. (approx. Vaganova).
2. les fouettes en dehors. Pose croiseé back with the left leg. Coupé on the left foot on the half-toes, hands in the second position, lower on the left foot on the demi-plié, the left hand descends to the I position. Passing the half-bent right leg forward 90 ° (modern 120 °), rise on the left to the toes, quickly circling the right leg Grand rond de jambe back and finish it on the left foot on demi-plié in III arabesque (en face position). The hands make the following Port de bras: The left one rises to the third position and passes to the second, while the right one goes to the third position and passes through the first to the third arabesque while lowering the left foot to the plié.
3. les fouettes en dedans et en dedans- The movement is done on the same principle.
4. . Stand in a croiseé position forward (left leg in front), lower yourself onto a demi-plié on your left leg, jump on it on half-toes and throw your right leg to II position (alaseconde) at 90 ° (120 °) - Grand battement jeté. Turning, swing your right leg across the floor through the passé par terre (passing motion). The supporting leg turns on half-toes (turn to en dedans), keeping the right leg at the same height. Finish the movement on 3 arabesques per plié ml per arabesque.
5. Grand Fouette en tournant en dedans (Italian fuete). It is performed on the fingers according to the same principle. Only it does not start with plié, but with sur le cou de pied, and pumps into the attitudé position on pointe shoes, croisé, the right hand in the third position, and the left in the first.
6. Grand Fouette en tournant sauté carried out according to the principle Grand Fouette en tournant en dedans, only the left leg comes off the floor with a jump, the turn is also made in the air, on the jump of the left leg.

W - Ch

• Pas de chat(cat movement) - a jumping movement that imitates the graceful jump of a cat. It is performed with bending the legs in a jump. Grand Pas de chat (Italian) - throwing the legs forward above 90 °, arms open from the III position, the body bends back

E - E

• Echappe is a jump that, with demi plié in fifth position, two legs push off the floor and retract (stick) to each other in the air (as in the soubresaut movement), then open in the air in II (à la seconde) or IV (en quatrième) landing position. This movement is performed on the fingers (sur pointes, movement relevé sur pointes). The Échappé battu movement starts in the same way, but after landing in the second or fourth position, a push again and the legs gather in a jump in the fifth position. In elementary grades, this movement helps in preparing for entrechat.

9. The textbook by A. Ya. Vaganova was first published in 1943 and was reprinted 4 times. The method of teaching classical dance outlined in it is intended for students and teachers of choreographic schools.

Choreographic terminology is a system of special names designed to denote exercises or concepts that are difficult to briefly explain or describe.

In the 17th century (1701), the Frenchman Raul Feyet created a system for recording the elements of classical dance. These terms are recognized by experts in the field of world choreography at the present time.

Referring to the special literature, students experienced difficulties when faced with unfamiliar terms, such as: “Eversion of the legs”, and this is a necessary and obligatory condition for the technique of performing elements of classical dance, “Corpus” in gymnastics is an unacceptable term, it is replaced by “Posture” , "Balloon" - the ability to fix the position in the jump, "Force" - the necessary preparatory movement of the hands to perform pirouettes, "Aplomb" - the stable position of the student, "Elevation" - the ability of the athlete to show the maximum phase of the flight in the jump, "Priporation" - preparatory exercises hand or foot before the start of the element, "Cross" - the execution of elements in the following directions: forward, sideways, back, sideways or in the opposite direction.

Knowledge of technical terms speeds up the learning process. Choreographic terminology characterizes the movement in more detail than gymnastic. This is the international language of dance, the ability to communicate with choreographers, understanding of special literature, the ability to briefly record training combinations, lessons, etudes, floor exercises, compositions.

Terminology is always built in accordance with the rules of word formation. The main advantage of the term is brevity. This makes it possible to reduce the time for explaining tasks, to maintain the density of the lesson.

But not always students manage to remember the choreographic terminology, so the idea arose of writing choreographic elements using gymnastic terminology, for a more accessible perception of the material being studied by students.

Experience shows that it is students who do not have choreographic training who have difficulty remembering the names of movements. As a rule, these are trampolines and jumpers on an acrobatic track. But athletes who have fulfilled the CMS and MS standards do not always have knowledge of the terms and the correct technique for performing even the simplest elements. The creation of such a table, a large number of illustrations for the elements make it possible to streamline students' knowledge in the field of choreographic training, be fluent in the terms of choreography and, if necessary, use special literature on choreography.

DEMI PLIE, GRANA PLIE (HALF Squat, Squat)

The purpose of the exercise is to develop the elasticity of the articular-ligamentous apparatus and "eversion" in the hip, knee and ankle joints. The exercise promotes the development of jumping ability by stretching the Achilles tendon.

Half squat(demi plie)

The semi-squat is performed in all positions. In this exercise, the heels do not come off the floor, the weight of the body is distributed evenly on both legs. Flexion and extension of the legs is performed smoothly, without stopping, "reverse", the knees are directed to the sides, along the line of the shoulders. Posture is straight.

squat(grand plie)

The squat is performed in all positions. First, a semi-squat is smoothly performed, then the heels gradually rise, and the knees bend as much as possible. When unbending, the heels first fall to the floor, then the knees straighten. When lifting the heels, do not rise high on the toes. The exception is the grand plie in the second position, where the heels do not come off the floor due to the wide position of the legs.

Flexion and extension should be performed smoothly, at the same pace. The pace is average. Before starting the exercise, the hand (if the movement is performed at the barre) or both hands (if the movement is performed in the middle) from the preparatory position are transferred from the preparatory position through the first position to the second. Then, with the beginning of leg bending, the arm (or both arms) descends from the second position to the preparatory one, and with the beginning of leg extension, the arm is again transferred through the first position to the second.

BANTMAN TANDYU (EXTENDED)

(position of the foot on the toe forward, to the side, back)

Flexion and extension of the foot by sliding along the floor to the position of the foot on the toe. It is performed from the first or fifth position in three directions: forward, sideways, back.

The purpose of the exercise is to teach how to properly stretch the leg in the right direction, to develop strength and elasticity of the lift (ankle joint) and a beautiful leg line.

Batman tandyu(right side to toe)

Batman tandyu forward(right forward on toe)

banman tandyu back(right back on toe)

Batman tandyu back and forth is performed along a line strictly perpendicular to the body, and to the side - exactly along the line of the shoulder. When performing the batman tandyu, the entire foot slides on the floor first, then the fingers and the rise are gradually extended. The center of gravity of the body is on the supporting leg, the toe does not come off the floor.

Make sure that the knees remain extremely extended and both legs remain “turned out”. At the moment of stretching the leg, there should not be an emphasis on the toe. When the leg returns to its original position, the foot gradually lowers to the floor. The heel drops to the floor only in the starting position.

When performed forward, the slide begins with the heel, and the foot returns with the toe to the IP. When performed backwards, the toe begins to slide, and the foot returns with the heel to the IP.

4/4 , the pace is slow. Later, the movement is performed from behind the beat. time signature -2/4, pace is average.

The leg is in this position both when performing large jette batmans (swings) fixed at 90 °, and when slowly raising the leg - relevelian.

Leg forward position

Leg position to the side

Leg back position

Large swings into the air and return to the starting position are performed in the first or fifth positions in three directions: forward, sideways, backward. From the starting position, the leg rises into the air with a wave, passing along the floor with a sliding motion, as in the batman tandyu jet, with the leg fixed at 90 ° (later on higher), and returns by sliding through the tandyu batman to the IP. Monitor the preservation of the “eversion” and tension of the knees, instep and toes of the working leg. Transfer the center of gravity of the body to the supporting leg. When performing a large swing forward and to the side, the body should remain strictly vertical. When performing a swing back, a slight tilt of the torso forward is allowed.

Musical size - 4/4. At the beginning of learning, the pace is slow. As you learn, the swing of the leg is performed due to the beat, the pace is medium, and the height of the swing increases in three directions: up and then up.

When performing relevant, the leg slowly rises forward, to the side or back and just as slowly lowers to its original position (through the batman tandyu). As you learn, the height also increases, as in the grand batman up and up.

RONDE DE JAMBES PARTERRERE (TOE CIRCLE ON THE FLOOR)

The main task of the exercise is the development and strengthening of the hip joint and the necessary “eversion” of the legs.

The movement is performed forward - an deor and backward - an de dan.

An deor(out)

From the first position, the sliding movement forward to the toe (batman tandyu), while maintaining the maximum "eversion" and tightness of the legs, is transferred by sliding to the second position to the right position to the side on the toe, then, while maintaining the "eversion" and tightness, it is carried back to the toe (batman tandyu) and slide back to the starting position

An dedan(inside)

When performing the exercise back (an dedan), the leg from the first position is glided back to the toe, then it is transferred by sliding to the side to the toe (to the second position), from the second position by sliding to the right forward position on the toe (batman tandyu) and returns to the original position by sliding position

The center of gravity of the body is maintained on the supporting leg. The working leg should pass all the main positions of the legs on the toe “inside out” at the same pace. Through the first position, the leg is carried out in a sliding motion with the obligatory lowering of the entire foot to the floor.

Time signature 3/4, 4/4, average tempo.

POR DE BRAS (EXERCISES FOR THE TRUNK AND ARMS)

A group of exercises that develops the flexibility of the body, the smoothness and softness of the hands and the coordination of movements.

Here one of the forms of por de bra is given, which consists in bending the torso forward and unbending it, tilting the torso back and returning to its original position.

The exercise is performed at the support and in the middle of the hall from the fifth position in the face position (en face) or in half a turn (croise, eface). Before starting the exercise, the hands are transferred from the preparatory position through the first to the second.

Fifth leg position, second arm position

Closed stance right in front of the left, toes outward, right heel closed with the toe of the left. Hands to the sides, rounded at the elbow and wrist joints, palm forward, thumb inward.

Fifth leg position, third arm position

Por de bra forward, hands in third position (torso forward, arms up, rounded at the elbow and wrist joints).

Fifth leg position, first arm position

Closed stance right in front of the left, toes outward, right heel closed with the toe of the left. Hands forward, rounded at the elbow and radio-metacarpal joints, palms inward.

Por de bra back, third hand position

Tilt the body back, arms up, rounded at the elbow and wrist joints, turn the head to the right (tilt the body back only with the shoulders back, without relaxing the muscles of the lumbar region).

Perform the exercise smoothly, observing the exact positions of the hands, accompanying their movement with a look and turn of the head. The musical size is 3/4, 4/4, the tempo is slow.

SUR LE COU AE PIE (FIXED POSITIONS OF BENT LEGS ON THE ANKLE)

The position of the leg on the ankle (sur le cou de pied) for performing batman frappe, batman fondue, petit batman, bottu. The right one, bent with a slightly unbent foot, is located above the ankle of the other leg, touching it with the outer part of the foot. The fingers are pulled back.

The sur le cou de pied position is performed in front and behind. In both cases, the knee of the bent leg should be “reversed” and directed exactly to the side along the line of the shoulder.

Sur le cou de pied

(basic position of the leg on the ankle in front)

Sur le cou de pied

(basic position of the leg on the ankle at the back)

Batman frappe consists of bending the working leg to the position of sur le cou de pied and extending it to the toe at the initial stage of training, and as it is mastered in the downward position in groups UTG-2,3, and in groups UTG-4, SS, VSM - on half-toes with lowering into various poses in a position on the toe or downwards.

First, the exercise is learned with leg extension to the side, then forward and later back facing the support at a slow pace. It is necessary to monitor the maximum "eversion" of the leg in the hip, knee and ankle joints.

When the flexion and extension of the leg in all three directions is mastered, then the flexion of the leg will be performed from the beat with an emphasis on the extension of the leg.

Musical size - 2/4, pace is average.

At first, only the position of sur le cu de pied in front and behind is learned. The leg from the fifth position is fixed over the ankle of the other leg and lowered again to the fifth position. This exercise is recommended to be learned facing the support. It is necessary to monitor the maximum "eversion" of the leg in the hip, knee and ankle joints, maintaining the correct posture and the center of gravity of the body on the supporting leg.

As the position of the leg on the ankle in front and behind is mastered, the change of position in front and behind is learned at a slow pace, and as it is mastered, at a fast pace. For learning the double frappe in the groups UTG-3, UTG-4 on half-fingers and in combination with demi-plié in poses.

Ankle leg position (sur le cou de pied) for performing batman fondue. This exercise consists in bending the leg into the position of sur le cou de pied with an extended “rise”, simultaneous semi-squat on the supporting leg and extension of the working leg to the toe or downward in one of three directions.

Sur le cou de pied

in front (conditional position of the leg on the ankle in front)

Sur le cou de pied

behind (conditional position of the leg on the ankle at the back)

First, only the position of sur le cou de pied is learned in front, then behind. After that, a semi-squat is learned on the supporting leg and extension of the working leg, first to the side, then forward and back facing the support

Musical size - 2/4, pace is slow. The movement is very smooth.

It is necessary to monitor the "eversion" of the legs and the distribution of the center of gravity of the body on the supporting leg. When the movement is well mastered, various hand positions can be introduced, especially when performing exercises in the middle of the hall. In the UTG-3 group, a double batman fondue is learned, and in the UTG-4, SS, VSM groups, the exercise is performed on half-fingers.

PASS (TRANSLATIONS - "REVERSE" POSITION OF THE BENT LEGS FORWARD, TO THE SIDE AND BACK, TOE AT THE KNEE).

DEVELOPE (LEG FLEXION AND EXTENSION AT 90° AND HIGHER)

The exercise develops "eversion" in the hip, knee and ankle joints and is a leading exercise for the development.

Passe to carry out development forward

Stand on the left, right bent at the knee toe in front.

Passe to execute development back

Stand on the left, right bent to the side, toe at the knee behind.

Passe to carry out development aside

Stand on the left, right bent to the side, toe at the knee to the side.

If the leg is unbent forward, then from the starting position it is transferred from the position of sur le cou de pied in front. If the leg unbends back, from the position of sur le cou de pied from behind.

Then the working leg slides up on the supporting leg (but without touching it) and opens in the required direction. If the leg unbends to the side, then, without slightly bringing the toe to the knee of the skating leg, it must be transferred to the inside of the skating leg and then straightened.

When performing, it is necessary to monitor the “eversion” of the thigh, the tightness of the lift and fingers.

When the pass is well mastered, the second part of the movement is introduced - leg extension in one of three directions forward, sideways, back. First, the development is learned to the side, then forward and later back. To the side and back, leg extension is learned facing the machine. The movement is smooth. It is necessary to monitor the "eversion" of the leg during its extension and return to its original position. Time signature -3/4, 4/4, slow tempo. When performed in the middle, various rotations of the torso and positions of the arms can be given. The passe position can also be used when moving the leg from one pose to another.

Development is performed from the fifth position in the UTG-3, UTG-4, SS, VSM groups in the upward position, and as it is mastered upward in three directions and on the half-fingers, into poses, in combination with elements of the chosen sport.

Choreographic terminology is a system of special names designed to denote exercises or concepts that are difficult to briefly explain or describe.

In the 17th century (1701), the Frenchman Raul Feyet created a system for recording the elements of classical dance. These terms are recognized by experts in the field of world choreography at the present time.

Referring to the special literature, students experienced difficulties when faced with unfamiliar terms, such as: “Eversion of the legs”, and this is a necessary and obligatory condition for the technique of performing elements of classical dance, “Corpus” in gymnastics is an unacceptable term, it is replaced by “Posture” , "Balloon" - the ability to fix the position in the jump, "Force" - the necessary preparatory movement of the hands to perform pirouettes, "Aplomb" - the stable position of the student, "Elevation" - the ability of the athlete to show the maximum phase of the flight in the jump, "Priporation" - preparatory exercises hand or foot before the start of the element, "Cross" - the execution of elements in the following directions: forward, sideways, back, sideways or in the opposite direction.

Knowledge of technical terms speeds up the learning process. Choreographic terminology characterizes the movement in more detail than gymnastic. This is the international language of dance, the ability to communicate with choreographers, understanding of special literature, the ability to briefly record training combinations, lessons, etudes, floor exercises, compositions.

Terminology is always built in accordance with the rules of word formation. The main advantage of the term is brevity. This makes it possible to reduce the time for explaining tasks, to maintain the density of the lesson.

But not always students manage to remember the choreographic terminology, so the idea arose of writing choreographic elements using gymnastic terminology, for a more accessible perception of the material being studied by students.

Experience shows that it is students who do not have choreographic training who have difficulty remembering the names of movements. As a rule, these are trampolines and jumpers on an acrobatic track. But athletes who have fulfilled the CMS and MS standards do not always have knowledge of the terms and the correct technique for performing even the simplest elements. The creation of such a table, a large number of illustrations for the elements make it possible to streamline students' knowledge in the field of choreographic training, be fluent in the terms of choreography and, if necessary, use special literature on choreography.

As the position of the leg on the ankle in front and behind is mastered, the change of position in front and behind is learned at a slow pace, and as it is mastered, at a fast pace. For learning the double frappe in the groups UTG-3, UTG-4 on half-fingers and in combination with demi-plié in poses.

Ankle leg position (sur le cou de pied) for performing batman fondue. This exercise consists in bending the leg into the position of sur le cou de pied with an extended “rise”, simultaneous semi-squat on the supporting leg and extension of the working leg to the toe or downward in one of three directions.

Sur le cou de pied

in front (conditional position of the leg on the ankle in front)

Sur le cou de pied

behind (conditional position of the leg on the ankle at the back)

First, only the position of sur le cou de pied is learned in front, then behind. After that, a semi-squat is learned on the supporting leg and extension of the working leg, first to the side, then forward and back facing the support

Musical size - 2/4, pace is slow. The movement is very smooth.

It is necessary to monitor the "eversion" of the legs and the distribution of the center of gravity of the body on the supporting leg. When the movement is well mastered, various hand positions can be introduced, especially when performing exercises in the middle of the hall. In the UTG-3 group, a double batman fondue is learned, and in the UTG-4, SS, VSM groups, the exercise is performed on half-fingers.

PASS (TRANSLATIONS - "REVERSE" POSITION OF THE BENT LEGS FORWARD, TO THE SIDE AND BACK, TOE AT THE KNEE).

DEVELOPE (LEG FLEXION AND EXTENSION AT 90° AND HIGHER)

The exercise develops "eversion" in the hip, knee and ankle joints and is a leading exercise for the development.

Passe to carry out development forward

Stand on the left, right bent at the knee toe in front.

Passe to execute development back

Stand on the left, right bent to the side, toe at the knee behind.

Passe to carry out development aside

Stand on the left, right bent to the side, toe at the knee to the side.

If the leg is unbent forward, then from the starting position it is transferred from the position of sur le cou de pied in front. If the leg unbends back, from the position of sur le cou de pied from behind.

Then the working leg slides up on the supporting leg (but without touching it) and opens in the required direction. If the leg unbends to the side, then, without slightly bringing the toe to the knee of the skating leg, it must be transferred to the inside of the skating leg and then straightened.

When performing, it is necessary to monitor the “eversion” of the thigh, the tightness of the lift and fingers.

When the pass is well mastered, the second part of the movement is introduced - leg extension in one of three directions forward, sideways, back. First, the development is learned to the side, then forward and later back. To the side and back, leg extension is learned facing the machine. The movement is smooth. It is necessary to monitor the "eversion" of the leg during its extension and return to its original position. Time signature -3/4, 4/4, slow tempo. When performed in the middle, various rotations of the torso and positions of the arms can be given. The passe position can also be used when moving the leg from one pose to another.

Development is performed from the fifth position in the UTG-3, UTG-4, SS, VSM groups in the upward position, and as it is mastered upward in three directions and on the half-fingers, into poses, in combination with elements of the chosen sport.
