大踢腿
意为"大踢腿"。动力腿从髋部抬起进入空中再落下，重音在下落动作上，双膝伸直。必须以表面轻松的方式完成，身体其余部分保持安静。Grand Battement 的功能是松开髋关节并从髋部外开双腿。可做 devant, derrière 和 à la seconde。以 à la quatrième devant 为例：右脚在前五位，以一次扫掠动作将右脚滑到前四位 pointe tendue，抬起到前四位 en l'air，落下到四位 pointe tendue，再滑回五位前。À la seconde 和 à la quatrième derrière 以相同方式执行。做 à la seconde 时，动力腿交替收回到五位前和后。
Large battement. An exercise in which the working leg is raised from the hip into the air and brought down again, the accent being on the downward movement, both knees straight. This must be done with apparent ease, the rest of the body remaining quiet. The function of grands battements is to loosen the hip joints and turn out the legs from the hips. Grands battements can be taken devant, derrière and à la seconde. To execute a grand battement à la quatrième devant start in the fifth position R foot front. In one sweeping movement, slide the R foot to the fourth position front (fourth position croisé), pointe tendue, raise the foot to the fourth position front en l’air, lower the foot to the fourth position pointe tendue and slide the foot back to the fifth position front. Battements à la seconde and à la quatrième derrière are done in the same manner. In the execution of grands battements à la seconde the working leg closes alternately in the fifth position front and back.
