High Kicks & Ballet Tricks: The Ballet Beginner's Grand Battement
The beginner grand battement combination in ballet involves powerful, controlled leg kicks, starting from a grounded position and extending the working leg as high as comfortably possible, either to the front, side, or back. This foundational movement, often practiced at the barre, cultivates leg strength, flexibility, and dynamic energy while emphasizing proper technique, alignment, and turnout. It's a springboard for dancers to transition into more advanced dynamic ballet steps.
