    I have been a ballet teacher for many years and everything you are saying is what I have always taught my students. Glad to see when I say do it my way and I have excellent turners that I am correct. It worries me when I see teachers who just teach to turn anyway you can and not the correct way.

    I’m 16 and I just started ballet a year ago. Right now I’m in intermediate ballet. I’m not on point yet, I can only do one pirouette, if I try for a second I almost fall on my landing or I just get unbalanced . I’m gonna keep these tips in mind when I go to class. Thank you 😊❤️

  • @teresaknudsen9973
    @teresaknudsen9973 4 роки тому

    Wonderful turns and explanations:) This is what I found interesting. I noticed that your left foot is pointed above your knee, not at the knee or below the knee, as some teachers teach. A lot time ago, in dance class, I couldn't turn, but then when I put my foot higher, above the knee, I could turn better. However, the teacher corrected me, and told me to lower my pointed foot to below the knee. Again, my turns just were not happening. Maybe pointing the foot higher above the knee also helps keep backs straighter. Anyway, thanks for showing that pointing the foot above the knee is fine.
