A sissonne is a jump where you land on your foot and put the other foot out as if it were extended

And an assemble is where you jump and keep your feet together and land on both feet

A sissone is a jump in which the dancer lands on one foot, with the other extended to the back, front, or side.

An Assemblé is a movement in which a dancer’s feet or legs are brought together in the air and the dance lands on both feet.

Hope this helps!!
