To start the study of classical dance, taking as examples the dancers embodied, we can say that the ideal age is from age eight. Since it is the age at which child will be learning to recognize the rhythm and space in which it moves.

One of the elements used in this dance, is the "bar" that is a long, thin piece of wood or metal used as support in the early years of the class. The positions of the legs were coded Beuchamps and there are five basic positions: 1 position. The two feet in a straight line, joined by the heels. Position 2: Feet on the same line, but separated by about 30 cm 3 rd position: feet together, united by their middle front of each other. 4 th position: feet apart in a vertical line forward about 25 inches apart. 5 th position: feet together in reverse, both heels facing out, fingers together like a foot with the heel of another.
