地面划圈
意为“地面上的划圈”（rond de jambe on the ground）。一种在扶把或中间完成的练习，一条腿在地面做一系列划圈动作。双腿须保持完全伸直，所有动作均须发自髋部，同时配合脚背的绷起与放松。动力脚脚尖不离地面，且不超过前四位（四位 ouvert）或后四位。此练习用于从髋部外开双腿、松弛髋部，并保持脚尖靠后、脚跟朝前。rond de jambe à terre 有两种：en dedans（向内）与 en dehors（向外）。扶把练习前通常有一个自第一或第五位开始的准备动作（preparation），配两个前奏和弦。第五位右脚在前（左手扶把，右臂二位）。和弦 1：demi-plié（右臂落至一位），右脚向前滑至四位 pointe tendue（右臂抬至一位，头向扶把方向轻倾）。和弦 2：右脚脚尖沿地面滑行，划一道弧线收于二位，同时左膝伸直（右臂打开至二位，头转向右）。在“弱拍”上右脚沿弧线收至后四位（头转回向前），舞者开始做一连串 rond de jambe à terre en dehors。做 en dedans 时所有动作反向。
Rond de jambe on the ground. An exercise at the bar or in the centre in which one leg is made to describe a series of circular movements on the ground. Both legs must be kept perfectly straight and all movement must come from the hip, along with the arching and relaxing of the instep. The toe of the working foot does not rise off the ground and does not pass beyond the fourth position front (fourth position ouvert) or the fourth position back. This is an exercise to turn the legs out from the hips, to loosen the hips and to keep the toe well back and heel forward. There are two kinds of ronds de jambe à terre: those done en dedans (inward) and those done en dehors (outward). The exercise at the bar is usually preceded by a preparation from the first or fifth position which is done on two introductory chords. Fifth position R foot front (L hand on bar, R arm in second position). Chord 1: demi-plié (lowering the R arm to the first position) and slide the R foot forward to the fourth position, pointe tendue (raising the R arm to the first position and inclining the head toward the bar). Chord 2: slide the R toe along the floor, describing an arc and finishing in the second position as the L knee straightens (the R arm opens to the second position and the head turns to the right). On the “upbeat” the R foot is drawn in an arc to the fourth position back (the head turns forward) and the dancer begins a series of ronds de jambe à terre en dehors. For ronds de jambe à terre en dedans, reverse the movements.
