Which term matches the definition 'stretched beating'?
Correct Answer:
Battement tendu
Explanation:
The movement described as “stretched beating” is battement tendu. In this term, battement means a beating action of the working leg, and tendu specifies that the leg remains stretched as the foot slides along the floor from a closed position toward an extended line, finishing with a pointed foot. It’s the classic on-the-floor, stretched working-leg motion that defines the battement family. Port de bras is about the arms, not the leg beating. Demi indicates half or partial and is a qualifier rather than a specific movement. Jeté is a leap with a beating action in the air, not a stretched, on-the-ground movement.
