When you do a grand rond de jambe jeté, your leg should move freely without dragging your upper body along for the ride. Think of your torso as stable and your working leg as completely independent. It’s the leg doing the work, not your chest, shoulders, or ribcage. Keep your body still, keep your alignment, and let the leg travel with precision. | Runqiao Du Ballet Coaching

Rond de jambe en l'air isn’t about how high you can lift your leg—it’s about placing it in the right position. Focus on control, turnout, and placement first. The height will follow. | Runqiao Du Ballet Coaching

Mastering the grand rond de jambe jeté is all about freedom in rotation. When you rotate your legs freely, you create a sweeping, effortless motion that defines the elegance of this movement. It’s the ultimate blend of control and fluidity; each rotation must feel natural yet powerful. Remember that in your next class! | Runqiao Du Ballet Coaching
