    I'm in a dance school and started ballet this year (I'm more into jazz), so classes are quit difficult for me, also it's a professional training so our teachers are very strict, their advices are the same as yours however having it explained by a student who figured it out kind of alone and giving advices nicely - not like making you feel bad about your dance - is very helpful and precious, thank you for this video :)!

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.

    The tip of piviting on the heels in 4th position and finding passe at the 1st quarter of the turn really helped me! I found that I felt more stable and was able to do a triple turn on flat. I cannot wait to try en pointe!!

    @teresaknudsen9973 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    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.
