Well, every Ballet step involves technique. For example, you can't just battement or 'kick' your leg to the side and call it a 'good kick.' It might be really high, but there are so many other things you have to think about and make sure are correct like, 'was the working leg (the leg you battement) and the supporting leg (the leg you stand on) straight AND turned out?' ' am I standing up straight?' ' was my foot pointed?' and many, many other little details you have to have be sure you do when you perform that battement. It also takes so much time and practice and strength to develop that technique. A ballerina may make that Grande Battement look effortless, but there's a lot more to it then just flinging you leg in the air.

Can tap dancing hurt ballet dancing?
no it cant --- Yes it can, the positions are very different and can harm technique. ----- Not particularly. I am on a tap and jazz competitive team and it is mandatory that I take ballet and everyone on the team takes ballet. Ballet is where most dance technique come from. But, if you are doing a toe stand, or toe knocks or wings or anything along those lines in tap, and and you turn your feet in, yes, you will definitely ruin that ballet technique. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No! I do both and I am improving in both especially ballet not going bakwards. I find it silly to think that because although in the Royal Ballet School they say so how could I be improving and my dance teacher be praising me more if tap dancing ruins Ballet technique!
