Ronds & Fans
An exercise pairing ronds de jambe à terre with fan kicks, working round motions of the leg at two levels. First on the floor, then off it. Face one corner, finish facing the other.
Draw the circle with a straight leg, from the front all the way behind the other leg, then step and change direction. Do it four times. Next the leg comes off the floor into a fan kick, with a fall and a drag between.
