Tendu
Tendu means to stretch in French. Usually done as an exercise at the barre from first or fifth position, the working leg is extended to either the front (devant), side ( à la seconde) or back (derrière), gradually along the floor until only the tip of the toe remains touching the floor (tendu a terre) or even further stretched so that the tip of the toe comes up off the floor a few inches (en l’air).

Ms. Donelson Renda’s vision for New City Dance Center is to give children a solid dance education, starting the very young dancer with the core foundation technique. Without technique a student has no foundation to grow as a dancer. Also, allowing each student to explore their own creativity and imagination in a fostering and caring environment.
