Balancé

Performed on a 3/4 time signature (waltz), the dancer gently transfers their weight from one foot to the other, creating a soft down-up-down movement.

It is this gentle rocking action that gives the step its elegance, helping dancers move across the floor with grace, musicality and expression.

Once mastered, a balancé feels effortless and lyrical, with seamless weight transfers, and coordinated use of the upper body.

We think our Silver Swans Beginners are demonstrating this absolutely beautifully 😍

This version is de côté (side to side) and we look forward to exploring the many different variations of this wonderful step.

Super proud of my Silver Swans Advanced ladies 💜

Over the past few weeks, we've been working on a particularly challenging pivot in our centre adage (shown towards the end of this clip) and the dedication, determination and focus they've shown has been amazing.

This movement demands so much at once: lifting through the supporting leg, keeping the weight forward into the toes, engaging the core, maintaining alignment throughout the body and turnout on both legs, smoothly transitioning from arabesque (straight leg) to attitude (bent leg), all whilst continuously turning and staying balanced.

It's a complex step that requires strength, control, coordination and patience. Progress doesn't happen overnight, and we are still working on it, but these ladies continue to show up, work hard and embrace every challenge with positivity.

Keep going, ladies, your hard work is paying off, and you should all be very proud of yourselves ✨🦢
