Ballet Bend is a term used to describe two ballet moves, Plie and Fondu. Plie is a French term meaning 'BENT' and is a move where the dancer bends their knees while keeping their back straight. Fondu is a French term meaning 'melted' and is a move where the dancer slowly lowers their body while keeping their legs straight. Both of these moves are used in classical ballet and are essential for any dancer to master.
