Level 1 Tendu combo for ages 5-6
Channel: Haley Mathiot
Date: 2020-10-27

This is the combo I use for teaching levels 1 and sometimes 2. It helps teach so many great steps! I hope you enjoy. 

Also, before you ask, yes you're right there are no tendus front or back in this combo. I find kids innately have no trouble with tendu in front of their nose, and I don't introduce back until much later. I start only with side at this age to help reinforce the correct side placement so they are always working within their rotation!
