The ballet is a dance whose origins are in the Italian Renaissance, and went to France. Right thing to understand is that the ballet originated in Italy but the true art we know as ballet now was made in France by the king's wife.... during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.
The ballet, recognized by the Royal Spanish Academy as a French word, from the balletto Italian, diminutive of ballo, which means "dance". According to the times, countries or currents and entertainment, this artistic expression can include: dance, mime, theater, people and machinery.
The Classical ballet or classical dance is a form of dance whose movements are based on the total and absolute control of the body, which should be taught from an early age. It is recommended to initiate studies of this classical dance at six or seven years, as the ballet is a discipline that requires concentration and effort capacity as an attitude and lifestyle. Unlike other dances in the ballet each step is coded. Invariably involved the hands, arms, torso, head, feet, knees, the whole body in a simultaneous combination of muscular and mental dynamics to be expressed in total harmony of movement.
I invite you to enjoy a few pictures of this beautiful discipline. Thanks in advance to all who take the time to see my presentation. Receive a big hug,
Yolanda Vargas.
