In 15th Century Italian Dance a continentia (pl. continentie) is a step to the side and back. A continentia left is performed by taking a step to the left and closing with the right foot, with a slight rising and falling motion throughout. A continentia right is the same to the opposite side.

Continentie are usually performed in pairs.
