Keirzlovesugar practise it on the barre first so that you can get a good solid rise and second position. Really get that pulling up and lifting feeling and try to build that speed up on the barre. Also, try putting on some faster music and really try and stay on the beat. Let me know how you get on 😊
Namjoons lost passport most people prefer to turn on their left leg, so that the right leg is up and you are turning to the right. Most find it easier to turn right, but not everyone, some people find it easier to turn left. So, whichever way you find easier 😊
I totally feel you! I dont have space at all and i barely practice it but we can do it! Try to make space for it move your bed or any fourniture to gain space
What do i do? I find it easier to turn left but my right leg is sooo much more flexible than my left leg Should i just improve my flexibility on my left leg or should i try to turn right?
Improve your left leg flexibility, try to get comfortable, Keep your hips down, make sure your arms follow your legs, ect. Improve your left leg, just some tips! Np
To be honest, I would try and do both. If you prefer turning left, you will always feel more comfortable that way so improving your left leg flexibility will help but the strength is the most important thing. You may be flexible enough to get your leg up, but you have to have the strength to hold it there. With turning right, most choreographers will set turn sequences that way in group dances as that's the way the majority of people prefer, so it's really important to work on your right turns as well :)
Any tips but I can do them with ease but they are REALLY SLOPPY. I mean like a 5 or 6 out of 10. They are super messy and even if I tighten up they still look bad. Also my arms look very loose and close even though they are far. CAN SOME PLEEEAASEEE HELP MEEE
Try and spot something a bit bigger to make it easier to focus on. Something as large as a door can still be a great spot :) Let me know how you get on x
ok so my biggest problem is that when i’m turning and my foot comes off releve once i go around i’m just completely thrown off balance can u help with that?
I had this problem and people always told me “push your foot to the ground.” But that made me lose momentum. INSTEAD of doing that practice going from the first position to the second position on the bar about 10-20 times for about 5 days trust me you will see so much improvement and it can help get straighter legs!!
@@rea_329 Sadly.. im not trained meaning i dont have a bar. Since march of last year i have asked my parents can i dance but we just dont have the money. Im pretty good at improv and i really wanna be trained. Thats why i watch these vids. Im still learning techniques and im only 12. I dont know what to do. I always want to give up :(
@@xii_keii I was 11 when I started with a la secondes and didn’t have a bar so I used a wall!!! Don’t ever give up on your dreams even if you don’t think you have what it takes.
If you don't have a barre, you could use a kitchen worktop or the back of a chair :) Most commonly, if you're travelling it's because you're jumping onto the ball of your foot rather than doing a strong rise. So practising on a 'barre' is a good way to get out of the habit. Also, make sure you have a good spot so your eyeline isn't moving :) Don't give up!! X
Ok tip: Always concentrate on nailing it, I find when I lose focus I often fall out or start traveling. Focus on both your legs and arms!
bestie i cant stop traveling im spotting but i cant stop traveling :(
do you have any tips bc i always lose the momentum after the first plié to second position

PAAW Official thank you i will keep you updated
I have a question
Which leg do you use to spin on...the left or right?
Cause I have been doing it on my right...

@@PAAWales oh okay thank you so much!
I think it's what leg I prefer
I want to learn these but i don't have enough space and i'm a total beginner 😔

@@samiaerghouni8273 I dance on my childhood house so i really cant move anything-

You need to keep your core tight
Keep your core tight and practise positions. Keep practicing! Tips from a dancer.
do you have any tips for keeping the same spot? i always manage to switch where i’m spotting.
I travel a lot as well, maybe try to keep your arms and legs in sync maybe that will help
