This is a kind of turn in ballet--one in a list that includes les piqués, les pirouettes, etc. I haven't been able to find this particular term in any of the ballet vocabulary lists that I have consulted. Does anyone know its English equivalent? Ballet vocabulary often remains in French, even among English speakers, so if all else fails I will leave it as is.
tours enveloppés
- Thread starter Mlle.Kimhi
- Start date
Almost always, I'd suggest. If you google 'enveloppé ballet' you'll find the definition and videos.
Thank you.
You better google “danse classique “ that’s how ballet (as a form of art) is called in French
Wikipedia has a good list of terms. Sadly no “tours enveloppés” on the list with the glossary with the explanation in English.

All the terms are in French, not translated to English. There is a definition of enveloppé in English .
