Pavlova's swan

Pavlova's swan is a delicate ballet pose named after the famous Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. In this pose, the dancer stands gracefully on one leg, with the other leg extended and slightly bent, while the arms are arranged to resemble wings—one arm lifted overhead and the other curved to the side. The pose exudes elegance and balance, showcasing the dancer’s control and poise. It is often performed in classical ballet as a symbol of beauty, lightness, and artistic expression, emphasizing the dancer’s strength and finesse through precise movement and posture.
