Firstly, well done for being able to do these! This video is only a general guideline for people who are considering taking up pointe class, meaning if you cannot do this, don't even think about pointe work yet. Check out my other video on this subject with more things to consider th-cam.com/video/3fgyALYXRbw/w-d-xo.html However, neither of these videos can replace the assessment of a teacher or physio as there is a lot more to consider on an individual basis. Also, before you start pointe class, return to your regular ballet class for at least six months. I hope this helps.

Thank you for saying so. I am glad to hear that.

It's Herbert the Cat, so cute!

I am happy to hear! Here's Herbert's playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLliaJwoRF6xfdkrxxJ34caCoaD58sX33a.html&si=RVUfvoZkuMaqp8yD

I hope this video helps somewhat. Best wishes on your dance journey!

Thank you and thank you for watching my video.

Thanks for your question. Coming up with a straight back should be the correct version. Also calling the arms in 3rd, not 5th position would be correct.

Thank you, and I agree with you about Herbert's sweetness.

Thank you, Beth! I am very happy your found this challenging tutorial helpful and I really appreciate your support.

I am looking forward to the transformation this month.

Hi, thank you for your comment. Ballet can be very confusing, you are right. Therefore, I provide a video for my students (and anyone else interested) featuring the confusing combinations that we practice for one month. I am not sure I understand what you are trying to say, though. I believe you mean that turning en dedans is less confusing than en dehors? If so, you are not alone. Many beginners, and even intermediate students, feel the same.

@@kolyaboo8835 guess! guess!

he's self-taught :)))

That's exactly right.

He wasn't harmed 🙏

Thanks for letting me know. I am happy that you find this video helpful :)

this is as hard as it gets! allegro i the studio afterwards must have been so easy.

It is easier in a way. It can feel more natural as it is a 'forward movement' and we mainly move forward rather than backward in regular life.

@@HolisticBallet so nothing physical like hip sockets direction or turnout?

@@anibrown5374 yes, moving this way aligns more with the direction of most peoples' hip sockets. You should feel similarly during relevé-passé en dedans.

Yes, he's the most precious in my life.

thank you!

Vielen Dank!

Yes, I believe it's the same.
