The five positions of the feet come from ballet, and are the foundation for many movements in ballet technique.Aside from static positions (we perform plies at the barre in first, second, fourth, and fifth, and often land jumps in first or fifth), the five positions also create landmarks for the feet to move through during more dynamic movements. For example, the chasse passes through fourth or second position, and assemble is a movement in which your feet meet in fifth in the air.All five positions are "turned out", meaning the toes point away from the midline of the body, but derivations are used in modern dance and contemporary ballet in which the feet are in parallel.
