What is a plie?
A Plie is a fundamental ballet movement where a dancer bends the knees and straightens them again, typically with the hips and feet turned out and heels together. This foundational movement is integral in all forms of dance, and it’s also popular in barre class.
How do you do a plie?
Steg 1
Stand up straight with your spine long and shoulders back. Turn your feet out, making sure your hips are externally rotated and your weight is evenly distributed in your feet. Relax your arms low in front of you, slightly rounded with hands a few inches apart.

This pose is integral for any barre practice because it gives the muscles a different challenge with each position change.
The pose will tone the glutes, thighs, hamstrings and calves.
