Thank you so much Sasha for your kind comment! 🙏🏻 I am extremely pleased that my videos are useful also to a very experienced dancer like you! 🥰 Thank you for recommending my videos! ❤️
This is absolutely perfect! Very many people make this little error often, though. By dance definition, a pivot is a backward rotation. What you are describing is more correctly called a swivel. It is not a big thing because everyone refers to both as pivots and we all understand. But, you are so perfect in your explanation that I want you to be completely perfect in your words also. I hope this is not taken as a negative comment. Abrazos
Interesting comment. In ballet which is the basis for all dance and all movements and dance says a pivot which is called a pirouette, is merely a movement around the body's vertical access. In any event this is an excellent video and the exercises are very basic and fundamental but if they are mastered ones Tango dancing will be significantly elevated
@@chuckiemeister Greetings, yes, as I said, the video is absolutely perfect. Re the other 2 points, you are correct ; à pirouette is simply a turn around one's longueural axis. However, there are different ways of performing such (swivel, ronde, pivot, en passe, and more). It is the same in tango where a giro is simply a turn out rotation, yet there are several ways to achieve one (molinete, calesita, media luna, etc). The second point, I acquiesce is somewhat controversial, and it is not my point here to argue either side, however, having studied ballet, jazz, tap, ballroom, and others, I do not believe that ballet is the basis of all dance. I will acquiesce that it is the basis of all fluid movement and the origin of modernized dance. Personally, I do not consider ballet to be "dance" strictly as such. Why? Because by definition, dance is "Fluid and Natural movement put to a specific rhythm, timing, and styling". Ballet is all of these things less the most important. There is nothing 'natural' about its movements. There is nothing natural about a penché with the leg extended to the heavens, or a grand écarte, or even walking en pointe. Do not get me wrong ; my ballet training was intense. Yet, I am of the group who believe that ballet is very necessary to dance, but it is more sport than dance.
@@percellstthomass4 jazz dancers perform many of the same movements and even do splits. I agree about point. Nothing natural about that. You can pull up nearly any Argentine Tango performance here on UA-cam and you will see the followers do many ballet moves. Nice chatting with you :)
@@chuckiemeister Thank you very much for your comment and compliments 🥰 I am very glad you find the video useful! 🙂 And thank you very much both of you Percell and Charlie for the I=very interesting discussion! 😀
Yes, indeed. The "opposite direction" does not mean towards the left instead of towards the right. It rather means towards the inside (of your body) instead of towards the outside (of your body). Same concept of "pirouette en de dans" and "pirouette en de hors" in ballet.
Ciao! Complimenti per la lezione/spiegazione! Sei bravissima! Tempo fa il cantautore Francesco Camattini ha composto questa canzone che forse potreste ballare nella vostra scuola. Spero ti piaccia: ua-cam.com/video/9yfsZ8Heb2s/v-deo.html Noemi

Exercise 1 and exercise 2. You are turning to the right both times, same direction.
Yes, indeed. The "opposite direction" does not mean towards the left instead of towards the right. It rather means towards the inside (of your body) instead of towards the outside (of your body). Same concept of "pirouette en de dans" and "pirouette en de hors" in ballet.
