Which term means a large, reverent step?

• A. Enchaînements
• B. Première Arabesque Croisée
• C. Grande Révérence
• D. Petits Battements Sur Le Cou De Pied

Answer: (D)

Grande Révérence is the term for a large, reverent bow to the audience. In Cecchetti terminology, révérence means a bow, and adding grande signals a bigger, more ceremonial gesture. It’s not a stepping movement across the floor, but a formal gesture of respect. The other terms refer to different ideas: enchaînements are linked sequences of steps, première arabesque croisée is a specific crossed arabesque pose, and petits battements sur le cou-de-pied are small beating movements on the neck of the foot.
