    Ms. Hanson is eternally endearing for the inspiring photographs of her dancing in Suki Schorer's book on Balanchine Technique. I recall the fun image of her pointing directly front to keep the money from dropping-an illustration when Mr. Balanchine pulled a ten-dollar bill from his money clip for a dancer to hold during tendu to the front.

      I had not seen my girl in 5 weeks and they led off with that and I bawled in my office.

    I am very interested in the demi pliés in 5th performed with the heels lifting. I have never known this to be done. Is there a purpose to this?

      more accepted in the balanchine technique, typically due to speed. it isn't taught that way in the lower levels, but seems to happen over time. no technical purpose to it

    What style is this? Why is everyone so stiff? What's wrong with their fingers? They look too young to have arthritis in the hands.

      @avesraggiana 4 месяца назад +7

      @@kompanyxYes. Balanchine technique places a premium on fleet, accurate and speedy foot work. Especially in young students who are still learning how to control their bodies, this speed in the legs and feet can come at the expense of expressiveness and fluidity in the upper body. In training to move so speedily in the legs, Balanchine students can unconsciously develop the habit of “clenching” in the upper body and arms. It’s not what’s desired of course, but when the focus is developing speed and strength in the legs and feet, this “clenched, flat” look in the upper body can happen.
