Glissade Devant means which movement?

Glissade Devant means which movement?

• A. Gliding step in back
• B. Gliding step in front
• C. Gliding step in front and back
• D. Bourrée step under

Answer: (B)

Glissade is a gliding step where the working foot slides along the floor to meet the other foot, ending in fifth position. When you add devant, it tells you the direction of that glide—the movement goes toward the front of the body. So Glissade Devant means a forward gliding step, with the working foot brushing forward to close with the other foot in front. This is different from a glissade derrière, which would travel backward. The other options describe either the wrong direction or a different step entirely (a bourrée), so they don’t fit.
