Dance was used by Louis XIV and other high ranking officials as an expression of power during the Renaissance era. Members of the court felt that by performing uncommon dances they proved their superior status in society.

He was oh so important to Ballet! He loved watching ballet, so much that he wanted to do it himself. He tried doing a jumping step when you're in fifth position and change your feet in the air, but he was overweight and to do the step, he had to hold one beat in the air, and then change. This is now a very important step in ballet.

What is the name of this step and the name of the one created for his abilities, or lack there of?
