Thank you Cynthia Harvey for carrying the torch of placement and line being more important than getting the leg up by tucking under and going for athletic effects!!!!!!
Bellissimo vedere queste meravigliose Etoile come Platel e tutti gli altri che donano non solo una correzione ma una vita di esperienza attraverso un gesto ...❤️ Spero che questi ragazzi si rendano conto della bellezza di tutto questo ❤️
Yes! Around 54:46 you hear the teacher say “wow, nice” and I think it was referencing 318’s gorgeous arabesque at the end. She really elongated and the balance was beautiful.
315 and 316 both have exceptional technique, but 316’s longer legs/lines really make a difference. Long lines are key, which is unfair because it’s 100% genetic.
im curious, what is the term ms platel uses for the first tendu exercise where they lower the degage leg onto flat as well, so it's like a weight transfer frm one foot to two feet? it sounds like 'talon' or.... something, but ms platel is the only teacher ive heard that uses this term, unless im just hearing differently!
is it possible to put down the names of the coaches so we know who we are watching? Also, when videoing the classes, I do not want to watch the teacher or the pianist. I want to see the students. Please , respectfully, Jason and Cynthia , try to talk about meaningful stuff instead of pretentious banter - like what the teacher is emphasizing and how it's important. thank you.
