Background

Ballet grew out of Renaissance spectacles which, instead like huge pop music occasions today, made use of every kind of performance art. These Italian dancing were more established in France. Le Ballet Comique de la Reine The Queen's Ballet Comedy Funny was carried out in Paris in 1581.

The basis of timeless ballet was developed in the Court of Louis XIV in France, in the 17th century. Even his title the 'Sunlight King' originated from a role he danced in a ballet. Louis established the initial ballet, the Ballet de Paris. It was later embraced by the Russians in the mid – 18th century.

Modern Strategy Starts 

In the very early 19th century ballet technique was ordered and jotted down by Carlo Blasis (1797-- 1878) of Naples. His dancing classes, 4 hrs long, were well-known for being the most difficult training there was at that time. 'Romantic ballet' prospered in France in the first half of the 19th century.

Throughout its early years, ballet dancing was commonly provided  on proscenium stages as the audiences sat pleasantly on a small elevated podium up to an elevation appropriate for sight. The type of  songs played was symphonic music which filled up the amphitheater for the enjoyment of not just the dancers, but for everyone present. Initially dancers wore layers upon layers of costuming, masks, big headdresses, pantaloons as well as dance shoes| with tiny heels. As appealing to the eyes as these were, transforming, curtsying, gliding and hopping would certainly have been reasonably uncomfortable for the dancers.
