This method prioritizes achieving a harmonious balance between expressive artistry and precise technique. Key principles encompass classical foundations, gradual difficulty progression, coordination of movement, proper execution of demi-plié and full-plié, and a focus on port de bras (arm movements). Dancers trained in the Vaganova Method are distinguished for their technical precision, strength, and expressive qualities.
