17.3. - Decor
An odalisque shall be trained to stand to the position called "Decor" or "First Position" or sometimes just "First". This is the basic standing position. An odalisque shall stand upright and does not slouch. The slave is standing in a relaxed way. The feet are not in a level military position. The heel of one foot nestles into or near the arch of the other, as is comfortable. The slave may move her weight to either foot. The arms hang naturally, the hands folded right over left over the pubic region. Head and eyes are slightly lowered. It is a demur, modest position. The command for this position is a single hand-clap.
