A fouette-heavy class. Must scoop energy into hips.
flic-flac:
-is not French, nor was it intro'd by Vaganova
-is a study of movement, not of position
-is a study of how to turn by sending energy from floor to hips
On another note, I love the way Kip says "adagio". It fills me with anticipation. Then I get to watch him do amazing things with his perfectly shaped foot in the air way above his head. Tonight's adagio did not disappoint. It included a panche, and then a deeper panche in which the hand must reach not only more downward but also more outward.

Observation: when gazing into the palm (ie: in an introverted pose), we must imagine that the distance between the hand and the face is great
