Ballerina
Also known as: Ballerina hold (Arabesque invert)
An inverted line with one straight leg and one in arabesque.
The ballerina rewards ankle mobility and clean lines. Photograph beautifully — train the toe point as religiously as the line itself.
Common mistakes
- Trying for the static version before owning the spinning version
- Under-gripping with the legs while over-gripping with the hands
- Skipping prep moves on the day. They aren't optional
Tips from instructors
- Conditioning between classes is what unlocks the next level
- Try the same trick on both sides every session — even your weaker side
- Eat enough. Underfed strength training plateaus fast
- Listen for the instructor's specific cue per move — not the general one
- If you've been chasing the same trick for 3 weeks, change the angle
