Which term describes 'Bourrée step with arms'?

• A. Pas de bourrée avec bras
• B. Pas de bourrée devant et derrière
• C. Demi-contretemps
• D. Temps levé

Answer: (A)

Pas de bourrée avec bras is the term that matches a bourrée step performed with arm work. In Cecchetti, pas de bourrée is a three-step linking pattern, and adding “avec bras” signals that the arms are actively carried in a defined port de bras throughout the movement, creating a coordinated, expressive line as you step. The other terms describe different movements or variations: a bourrée performed front and back changes direction in a front-and-back pattern; demi-contretemps refers to a small beat or light jump; temps levé means a raised step or jump. The inclusion of “avec bras” specifically indicates the bourrée done with arm placement.
