#TutuTuesday ~ The view from the wings! An @abtofficial performance of “Don Quixote” featuring principal dancer Isabella Boylston. Repost @isabellaboylston Here’s a throwback to 2022 Don Q. It was one of our first shows back from the pandemic and everyone was just happy to be there. Best part of this video is @ktwil14 [Katie Williams] saying “get it, Bells” when I run to the corner! . #isabellaboylston #abtofficial #ballerina

One of the most stressful solos I’ve ever danced! Even just hearing the music makes me sweat 😰 At least in this version it was over in Act 1. Conducted by the amazing @gavinsutherlandofficial 😍🙏🏼 #tututuesday #turningtuesday @englishnationalballet

Rivoltade: A classical ballet term that translates as “to turn over.” Male dancers will often perform this advanced step in classical ballet variations. A rivoltade is executed when a dancer battements one leg in the air, jumps over it and lands on the other leg. . . . #BalletWest #BalletEducation #BalletWestGlossary #TutuTuesday #Rivoltade

Check out this fun ballet step: Entrechat Quatre! . The term "entrechat" comes from the French word "entrechats," which means "interweaving" or "braiding" and “quatre” means four. Entrechat Quatre involves two leg crossings and two leg openings in the air, resulting in a total of four leg movements! .

An Entrechat Six is an interweaving or braiding movement in which a dancer jumps and beats their legs rapidly as they cross. #Didyouknow an Entrechat Six is also seen in traditional Irish dances? #TutuTuesday Principal Artist Jenna Rae Herrera @jetejenna Principal Artist Hadriel Diniz @hadrieldiniz Principal Artist Tyler Gum
