What is "ballon"?
In ballet, ballon refers to the light, airy quality of a dancer’s jump, where they appear to float or bounce in the air. The term describes the ability to maintain a sense of weightlessness and elevation during jumps, and it involves a smooth transition between ascending and descending. Ballon is achieved through precise technique, including proper use of the legs and feet, control of the body's alignment, and effective use of momentum. A dancer with good ballon demonstrates both elegance and control, creating the impression of effortless, floating movement in the air.
