手的位置（切凯蒂体系）
在 Cecchetti 方法中，手位共有三种，分别用于把杆练习、中间练习以及 arabesque 中。（1）把杆时的手位：以英文序数计，第一指（食指）与第四指（小指）微微弯曲，第二指（中指）与第三指（无名指）并拢而弯曲，拇指搁在第二指（中指）的第一关节上，并轻触第一指（食指）内侧的第一关节。手腕向内弯曲并微微下沉，使手臂自肩到指尖形成一条弧线。在最初阶段的练习中采用这一手位时，学生学会以柔软、自然的方式持手，纠正初学者常有的五指张开的习惯。（2）中间练习时的手位：持法同上，但第二指与第三指（中指与无名指）弯曲程度较小，四指呈张开状但不散开。（3）Arabesque 中的手位：同（2），但掌心向下、手腕弯曲，使手自手腕处向外翻转。
In the Cecchetti method there are three positions of the hand which are used during the exercises at the bar, the exercises in the centre and in arabesque. (1) The position of the hand at the bar: The first and fourth fingers are somewhat curved while the second and third are held together and curved, so that the thumb rests on the first joint of the second finger and touches the inside first joint of the first finger. The wrist is curved inward and bent slightly downward to give a curved line of the arm from the shoulder to the fingertips. When this position is assumed during the initial exercises, the pupil learns to hold the fingers in a soft, natural manner and eliminates a common tendency of beginners to spread their fingers. (2) The position of the hand during the exercises in the centre: The hand is held as above but with the second and third fingers less curved, so that all four fingers are open but not spread. (3) The position of the hand in arabesque: The hand is held as in (2) but with the palm turned down and the wrist bent, so that the hand is turned in an outward direction from the wrist.
