Which term describes raising the body to a height in fifth position?

• A. Relevé Cinquieme
• B. Exercices au milieu
• C. En dehors
• D. Battement Frappés

Answer: (A)

Raising the body to height in fifth position is described by a relevé cinquieme. Relevé is the action of lifting from a plié up onto the balls of the feet (demi-pointe) or onto pointe, maintaining turnout and a straight alignment. Adding cinquieme specifies the exact foot placement: fifth position, where the feet are fully turned out and one foot sits in front of the other with heels aligned. So relevé cinquieme means lift up into that specific fifth-position height and hold with proper turnout. The other terms refer to different ideas: exercices au milieu means center work, en dehors indicates a direction of turn-out or path, and battement frappé is a foot-beat or brush on the floor, not the act of rising to height in fifth.
