a binary kind of day...

failli:
-is a connecting step in which you jump from 5th and ALMOST fall into efface back, but then your back foot PASSES THROUGH first and into croise fourth
-in everyday French, the word is used with other verbs to mean ALMOST
-eg: "J'ai failli tomber" = "I almost fell (but did not)"; note the implication that the fall failed to take place, that I was saved from falling
-in ballet French, has come to mean TO MAKE WAY/PASS THROUGH

We did 3 long combinations at center. My inner compass was tragically malfunctioning. 2 tips for better recall of combinations:
-note how many croises/effaces
-markers (eg: on what count do you developpe?)
