The youngest dancer
in the room
was tossing dizz'ly
in the womb

Lessons drawn from fondu en tournant:

-deepening of plie upon releve
-extended foot initiates turn
-balance comes from abdominal wall, gluts, and lower back
-the ankles are clueless; avoid relying on them for balance
-avoid throwing the body blindly into the void and merely hoping
-embrace life's imperfections; explore the various causes of imbalance

Fondu en tournant is a metaphor for Life.
