POUSSETTE Meaning and Definition

1. Poussette is a noun of French origin, referring to a type of dance movement or figure in ballroom dancing. Specifically, it is a term commonly used in sequence dances, where couples move in a choreographed pattern.

   In ballroom dancing, the poussette involves two dance partners moving together in an elegant, circular maneuver. The partners stand facing each other, with their arms connected in a manner known as a "close hold." As they step forward, the partners pivot and twirl around each other in a circular motion, maintaining their connection throughout. The poussette can be performed in various directions and at different speeds, depending on the particular dance routine.

   The poussette is not only a graceful dance step but also serves as a way for couples to transition smoothly between different formations during a sequence dance. It requires synchronization, coordination, and trust between the two partners to execute it flawlessly.

   While poussette is primarily associated with ballroom dancing, the term can also be used more broadly to describe a type of baby stroller or carriage, particularly in French-speaking regions. However, in the context of ballroom dancing, the term is more commonly used and recognized.

   Overall, the poussette is a beautiful and intricate dance movement performed by couples, characterized by its circular motion and connection between partners.
