摇摆步 / 三拍子平衡步（中间练习 · 连接步）
意为「摇摆步」。此步与 pas de valse（华尔兹步）十分相似，是 balance（摇摆）的交替，重心在一只脚与另一只脚之间来回移动。Balancé 可将脚交叉于前或于后完成。右脚在前五位。Demi-plié，将右脚 dégagé 至二位，轻轻跳至右脚上做 demi-plié，左脚在右脚踝后交叉，头与身体向右倾。左脚在右脚之后踩上 demi-pointe，右脚轻轻离地；随即再次落回右脚的 demi-plié，左脚抬至 sur le cou-de-pied derrière。下一个 balancé 将转向左侧。Balancé 也可做 en avant（向前）或 en arrière（向后），面向 croisé 或 effacé，并可 en tournant（带转）。
Rocking step. This step is very much like a pas de valse and is an alternation of balance, shifting the weight from one foot to the other. Balancé may be done crossing the foot either front or back. Fifth position R foot front. Demi-plié, dégagé the R foot to the second position and jump on it lightly in demi-plié, crossing the L foot behind the R ankle and inclining the head and body to the right. Step on the L demi-pointe behind the R foot, slightly lifting the R foot off the ground; then fall on the R foot again in demi-plié with the L foot raised sur le cou-de-pied derrière. The next balancé will be to the left side. Balancé may also be done en avant or en arrière facing croisé or effacé and en tournant.
