Which term is a chain of slow controlled movements?

• A. Deux Grand Ronds de Jambe en l'air avec l'Arabesque
• B. Attitude et Pirouette en Dedans Study
• C. Adage Enchaînements
• D. Sissonne en Arrière, ouverte

Answer: (C)

Adage work centers on slow, controlled, flowing movement with attention to alignment, balance, and smooth connections. When you see a term that pairs adage with enchaînements, it points to a continuous sequence built from adage movements—kept deliberately slow and coordinated from one step to the next. That combination is exactly a chain of slow, controlled movements. The other phrases describe things that aren’t about a linked, slow sequence: a jump with large leg circles into an arabesque is a dynamic airborne movement; a study focusing on attitude and a straight-ahead pirouette targets turns and pose rather than a sustained, flowing phrase; a sissonne involving an outward jump into an open position is also a jump, not a slow linking sequence.
