Definición y Significado de "releve"

What is "relevé"?

Relevé is a ballet movement where the dancer rises onto the balls of the feet, lifting the heels off the ground. The term "relevé" means "raised" or "elevated" in French. To perform a relevé, the dancer starts in a plié or other position with the feet flat on the floor, then pushes up onto the toes or demi-pointe. The movement emphasizes control and strength in the feet and ankles, and it is used to create a sense of height and elegance in ballet. Relevé is commonly practiced at the barre and in various dance steps to build balance and stability.
