The definition of Arabesque is "is the position of the body supported on one leg, with the other leg extended behind the body with the knee straight. The standing leg may be either bent, in plie, or straight."

I saw this in the film Last Tango in Paris.

Those Russians, eh...
Wow. I only saw that film one time in the theatre when it was released and barely remember it.
If there was dance I would love those parts but
the film kinda left me cold.

Sorry Dawn, it was a just a tad tongue in cheek. :wavey:
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
