What is "petit battement"?
Petit battement is a ballet movement where the dancer rapidly and repeatedly beats one foot against the ankle or calf of the supporting leg. To perform a petit battement, the dancer lifts one leg slightly off the floor and moves the foot in a small, controlled motion, usually with the toes pointing down and the heel close to the supporting leg. This movement is done with quick, precise beats and is often used to develop ankle strength, control, and flexibility. Petit battement is commonly practiced at the barre and in various ballet exercises to enhance the dancer's technical ability and articulation of the feet.
