Dance Positions

Every dance is built from a handful of shapes. Picture each one — then you’ll spot it in a phrase.

A dancer in Plié position

Plié

Bend the knees with the heels down and the back tall — the spring that starts almost every jump.

A dancer in Arabesque position

Arabesque

Balance on one leg with the other stretched behind you and one arm reaching forward — a long, graceful line.

A dancer in Leap position

Leap

Push off and fly — both feet leave the floor for a moment, arms open wide.

A dancer in Pirouette position

Pirouette

Turn on one foot with your arms drawn in — pulling in makes the spin faster (that’s momentum!).

A dancer in Balance position

Balance

Hold steady and still — rise onto your toes, arms out, and find your centre.
