What is your favourite step or 'ingredient' of ballet?

[trog]

My favourite step to do is temps de cuisse, particularly the Cecchetti variant. The mind is still wiling, but the body is finding class is more and more difficult as each year passes. The Fred step mentioned above flows very well, and even three left feet me can give it a decent bash.

 

My essential element is a ballet is watching the corps run on, especially in Swan Lake. This still gives me a rush even after 45 years of watching.
