It became popular in the world in continuous innovation.

Extraordinary hardship and pain have also created the beauty of ballet. We summarize the aesthetics of ballet as the four principles of "open, stretch, upright, and standing". Since its formation in 1700, it has been used today and has become ballet choreographers in various periods. Our aesthetic standards.

Open"-the essence of ballet art

"Open" means that ballet dancers need to open the five joints of the shoulder, chest, hip, knee, and ankle symmetrically outwards, or open to both sides, especially the feet should open 180 degrees outward. Its artistic characteristics are mainly manifested in: extending the body's lines, expanding the expression space, enhancing the flexibility of movement, maintaining the balance of the body, improving the artistry, and showing off the aristocratic style.

"Stretch"-show the beauty of muscle power

"Stretch" means that ballet dancers need to "stretch" all parts of their limbs, especially the knee and ankle joints on the legs and feet, as well as the spine and cervical joints. In order to effectively extend the original lines of the limbs in the audience's vision, and produce the aesthetic feeling of beautiful body and muscle beauty.


"Straight"-show the pride of justice

"Straight" refers to the need for ballet dancers to straighten their backs up like a door to achieve the artistic realm of bodybuilding and beauty. "Straightness" is not only reflected in the uprightness of the body, but also in the upright state maintained by the body in the dynamic state. Verticality is the main theme of many ballet movements.

"Stand"-reproduce the honest heart

"Standing" refers to ballet dancers who need to make the head, neck, torso, and limbs as a whole. In static dances, they have to stand proudly and arrogantly. In dynamic dances, they must be steady and smooth. When you stop, sway it forcefully and as steady as a mountain.

In ballet art, the aesthetic principle of keeping the torso upright and upright shows a kind of self-confidence and pride, nobility and integrity, combined with the aesthetic characteristics of openness and tension, which together create the gentlemanly demeanor and behavior of male ballet dancers. The graceful demeanor and posture of female ballet dancers are full of elegant and noble artistic style, which is a model of nobility and elegance in art.
