Which term means 'raised movements'?

Which term means 'raised movements'?

• A. Exercices au milieu
• B. Temps levé
• C. Troisième
• D. Cinquième position

Answer: (B)

Temps levé is the one that signals a raised movement. In ballet vocabulary, levé means raised, and temps levé describes a movement where the dancer rises off the floor, typically springing onto demi-pointe or pointe and holding briefly in the air. This contrasts with terms that name where you work (exercices au milieu = exercises in the center) or how the feet are positioned (troisième = third position, cinquième = fifth position). So the concept being tested is recognition that this term specifically denotes rising or lifting movement.
