What is a "dégagé"?

A dégagé is a ballet movement where the dancer extends one leg to the side, front, or back with the foot slightly off the ground. The term "dégagé" means "disengaged" in French, indicating that the foot is lifted and separated from the floor. The movement is performed with a smooth, controlled action, and it helps to develop strength and flexibility in the legs. Dégagés are used to improve the dancer’s precision and control, and they are often included in exercises at the barre and in various ballet routines.
