对拍步
意为“与节拍相击、逆拍”（beating against time）。Cecchetti 教学法与法兰西学派的术语。这是由 coupé dessous、chassé effacé en avant、fermé、temps levé 与 chassé passé croisé en avant 组成的复合舞步。动作须快速完成，抢在音乐节拍之前。这是一个对向侧行进极有用途的舞步。第四位置左脚在后，pointe tendue。左脚略微抬离地面，右脚蹬地，向左脚跳起前跃——屈膝——使左脚落在短促的前四位上。右脚收至 sur le cou-de-pied devant，随即——屈膝——立即滑至第二或第四位置，并将重心移于其上。左脚闭合至后五位，保持屈膝。以 demi-contretemps 收尾。
Beating against time. A term of the Cecchetti method and the French School. This is a compound step consisting of a coupé dessous, chassé effacé en avant, fermé, temps levé and chassé passé croisé en avant. It is executed quickly and prior to the beat of the music. It is a very useful step for traveling to the side. Fourth position L foot back and pointe tendue. Raise the L foot slightly off the ground, spring off the R foot and jump forward on the L foot—bending the knee—so that the L foot falls in a short fourth position front. Bring the R foot sur le cou-de-pied devant and immediately slide it—bending the knee—to the second or fourth position, transferring the weight to it. Close the L foot to the fifth position back, keeping the knees bent. Finish with a demi-contretemps.
