Contractions and Rond de Jambe en l'Air

In this exercise you will work on the proper execution of the contraction and breath. You will also work on control, balance, and rotation in both turn out and parallel.

It starts in a small lunge and moves through a forced arch plié, deep contractions and a tabletop. Four rond de jambes en l'air lead into an eight count balance.
