What is a “fouette”, you say? Pierina Legnani, an Italian powerhouse, first did 32 fouettés in Cinderella in 1893. Italian dancers (from the Cecchetti School of Ballet) were more athletic than their French and Russian counterparts and they also knew how to spot when they turned (spotting means you focus on one fixed point, whip your head around and return to that point, thus keeping you from getting dizzy.) Spotting, strong calves and thighs are all essential to doing fouettés and Pierina could whip them out. Sponsor your favorite dancer today, and help “Save the Pirouette”. |
