Chassé en Avant, Coupé Dessous, Chassé en Avant, Temps Levé en Troisième describes which sequence of steps?

• A. Chassé en Avant, Coupé Dessous, Chassé en Avant, Temps Levé en Troisième
• B. Chassé en Avant, Pas de Chat, Temps Levé
• C. Chassé en Arrière, Coupé Dessus, Chassé en Avant, Temps Levé en Quatrième
• D. Jeté en Avant, Trois Temps Levé

Answer: (A)

This question tests your ability to recognise and recall a Cecchetti step sequence and its exact order. The sequence given—chassé en avant, coupé dessous, chassé en avant, temps levé en troisième—is the same string of movements described in the prompt. So the option that matches this exact sequence is the correct choice, because it preserves both the steps and their order, which is essential in Cecchetti notation. Think of what each term means in movement flow: a forward chassé glides you ahead, coupé dessous is a preparatory cut under to set up the next motion, another forward chassé continues the line, and temps levé en troisième completes the sequence with a raised time in the third position. The other options change one or more elements—direction (en arrière), the detail of coupé (dessus instead of dessous), or the final raised position (quatrième)—and thus do not reproduce the exact described sequence.
