Describe a grand jeté.

Explanation:
A grand jeté is a large leap from one leg to the other with both legs extended in the air and a controlled landing. It starts from a push off the supporting leg, the working leg travels forward and extends, while the other leg extends behind, creating a long, clean line. The emphasis is on power, extension, and a precise, quiet landing, showing control as you transfer weight to complete the leap. This distinguishes it from a small step with little extension, a ceiling turn on the spot, or a jump where the feet stay together.
