Question: What are some important types of ballet jumps!? HELP!.!?

I take dance classes at school and right now we are doing ballet!. I was absent yesterday and my teacher won't take time to teach me what they learned yesterday!. She expects me to just catch on!. I want to look up the jumps that they did today, but wayyy too many sites come up on google!. What are some of the ballet "across the floor" jumps!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

The 6 most important jumps in ballet are:
glissade, assemble', jete', pas de chat, and sissonne!.
Without these jumps, there is no dancing!.
Other important ballet jumps include:
Grande jete' or grande saut de chat, temps leve', basic saute' such as changement and echappe', or beating jumps like entrechat quatre, or royale!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Across the floor!.!.!.
since it's just a dance class in school you probably wouldn't be doing anything too hard!.
Were they doing leaps!? In ballet, the term is Grand Jeté!.
Or there are scissor looking jumps if you caught a glimpse of your friends doing the jumps!. They are called Tour Jetés!.
Hope that helps! :DWww@QuestionHome@Com
