ProfessorThere aren't really just five Ballet movements. There are however four leg positions you should know. There's first position, where your heels are touching each other and your toes are pointing in opposite directions. Second position is where your feet (depending on how long your legs are) are about 1.5 to 2 feet apart. Some teachers will say there is no third position, but if they're more relaxed and informal, third position is where your heels are slightly crossing each other (it's like a wimpy fith position!). Fourth position is like being in first, then taking one foot and stepping forward a few feet, you should be perfectly between your legs. Las but certainly not least, fifth position. Fifth position is where you start in first position, and slide one foot over so that your heel from one foot is touching the toes of the other. Well I hope that kindoff answered your question, if not, you got a couple sentences in ballet education you didn't need!
well there are a lot of diffrent "moves" in ballet. in ballet the basic step is plie where you bend both knees in a position. which there are basicly alomst 100 or more diffrent positions. every step has plie in it except boora and that's where you bend your knees on demi or full point. but to awbser you question you cant really cause there are so many "moves" in ballet.
There is first: feet sticking out to the side with heels touching
second: feet spread apart sticking out to the side with feet roughly two feet apart
third: one foot is sticking to the side with the other foot out about a foot forward sticking out in the other direction
fourth: the heel touches the inside of your foot at and angle
fifth: heel touches tip of toe
Do you mean positions or actual movements? I'll do both cause I'm not sure so here:
movements - portabrae (I have no idea how to spell it) that's basically it for movements but there are heaps more in positions:
bra ba, first, second, third, fourth, fifth, fourth crossed, demi bra, open fifth and that's only a few.
Yeah so, I didn't know what exactly you meant but I hope this helped!
