Everybody Pliés

Everybody Pliés.

Ballet dancers plié an awful lot. 

Jazz dancers plié in a way that’s really hot.

Hip hop dancers especially need plié.

Even Highland dancers plié in their own special way.

Modern dancers plié in a way that’s deep.

Irish dancers plié only just a peep.

Plie when you’re young and hale.

Plié when you’re old to keep from getting frail.

You guessed it, tap dancers need to plié too.

Everybody pliés.

And so should you!
