A terre means where?

Explanation:
À terre means on the ground. In Cecchetti terminology, it describes a movement or finish that stays on the floor, with the foot in contact with the ground or the dancer settling on the floor. It contrasts with en l’air, which means in the air (performed while jumping). The other options don’t fit the standard ballet sense of where a movement occurs.
