Romantic ballet is
a type of dance that appeals to the five senses. When you think of romantic
ballet, you should think of the supernatural, which is the theme of most of the
ballets in this time period. Ballet used to be a male dominated art form, but
with the development of Corps de Ballet, it shifted the focus to females. It
gave women a career field and gave them a chance to be equal with men in
several different ways. The use of pointe shoes was introduced in the Romantic
ballet era to give the appearance of floating. The tutu was very different from
tutus today. The romantic tutu was mad of several layers of tulle and hit at
knee length.
