Ballet dance is considered to be the most
graceful and poised form of dance but it can be
an intimidating affair if you are just starting
out. Here are few tips that can be helpful in
enhancing your ballet dancing skills

Outfits It is impossible to practice or learn
ballet dance without the appropriate attire.
Think of your costume as an outfit that speaks
the language of ballet - clothing designed to
allow dancers the freedom of movement along with
elevating the visual effect of their dance moves.
Case in point the ballerinas tutu, a
multilayered skirt that creates an impression of
lightness and grace. If dance is the language of
freedom, then every dance form is a different
language. The freedom of expression that ballet
dancers experience is unrivalled in its skill and
grace.

Words As expressive as ballet is - it is a
technical form of dance which can be learnt only
if youre aware of the right French terminology
and vocabulary. It is essential for dancers to
learn the theoretical language of ballet. While
you may not use the terms when you flaunt your
flawless moves while dancing, knowing the right
language helps with perfecting technique,
understanding the mechanics and culture of ballet.

Flexibility Stretching is a vital activity of
ballet to be practiced with every ballet session.
A ballet dancer needs to be flexible in order to
position the body correctly and to avoid injury.
Essential moves such as Pirouettes can be
perfected only by preparing well. A pirouette is
more than a balance or a turn. Dancers need to
keep their core pulled in and set their foot in
front of their knee while turning at the same
time. WIthout proper stretching and warm-ups,
such complex moves can look awkward - or worse,
subject you to injury!

It is easy and fun to dance freely in your
beginner classes by focusing on a of steps
rather than technique. However, if you want to
improve your skill and and master ballet, you
need a lot of practice. You will also need to be
mentally tough and focus your attention to learn
some of the more complex moves. Ballet is a blend
of sweat, hard work and perfect technique but the
end result of your efforts can culminate in an
ethereal and mesmerizing performance!
