This dance, in 3/4 time, requires technique, musicality and passion. It incorporates traveling steps, fouettés, extensions, jumps and floorwork, and calls upon you to stay grounded in the story and emotionally expressive even when executing challenging choreography. Listen to the lyrics and dig deep into Jeff Buckley's passionate vocals for the inspiration behind this powerful, feel good lyrical!
Notes
- Take two counts (1, 2) and use a deep plié, exhale and lean forward on the rond de jambe before the steps back.
- After the passe, travel and reach arms from 4th into 2nd before the touch back into the piqué attitude.
- Take a full count prep (on 4) out of the pirouette into the fouetté.
- Keep legs straight, together and feet well stretched on the chassé en tournant.
