Ballet How To Brise

Brise Ballet Term

Brisé [bree-ZAY] Broken. Start in fifth position. The working leg brushes to the second position and meets the other leg in front or behind in the air. Finally both feet land in fifth position. This is similar to an assemblé however there is a beat and the dancer travels. Check out our ballet glossary full of ballet dance tutorial videos. Much Love, Jacklyn Dougherty
