This is so being a returning model I have been able to get the different turns and steps and poses but for fashion shows and pageant is a whole level up.. 😊
As a ballet and ballroom dancer, I was fascinated by the pageant turns and so I came to watch and see what hacks you guys use. In dancing (particularly ballet), we always use our shoulder to push a little momentum and arms to finish the turn (my description is probably lacking). I see that when you swiftly bring the thighs and feet together - it makes that same momentum as you make in dance with arms and shoulders -the technique is fascinating indeed! Would enjoy more of these videos!
Thank you for watching Natalie! You are absolutely right. I love it when contestants are able to do this on stage, it takes my breath away for a moment
Practice makes perfect! I can sense that you are working hard. You go girl! Don’t forget to drink lots of water, and if they hurt, you can soak them in warm water (+Epsom salt if you have any) and/ or put your feet physically up after a long day. I like to put my feet up against the wall while lying in bed backwards (with my bum close to the pillows)... while scrolling social media on my phone 😂
@@CrystalClues Hey, Crystal! I have been twirling so much, now I can't stop! I can do it now in both directions! haha! (amazed myself!) Now I'm heading for a 3 in. heel. Any suggestions? Thanks again for your awesome video!
Natalie Howard You have no idea how happy this comment makes me! ☺️☺️☺️Work it girlfriend! As for 3” heel recommendations, I hesitate to give you specific brands because some are just naturally narrow or others are wider, etc. and I don’t know the shape of your foot (personally I have a bunion so I find like every heel uncomfortable hah) but if you’re able to try something on first that would be ideal. Amazon wardrobe has heels you can try on at home and send back if you don’t find them comfortable. If stores are open where you are, going in to try them on in person is the best! I am in California and with Covid shut downs we haven’t been able to do that 🙁
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! My 11 year old daughter is competing in her 1st pageant and we had basically had no idea where to begin with formal and runway routines. We will be studying this channel like a guide!! ***i love and need your shoes*
This is so good. I'm from India. I realized there aren't just enough videos for walk turn twists and body language. You are doing a great job. You are so so good. Keep going! ❤️
I love you, I am currently watching all of your videos and there are so useful and instructive, you make it so easy to learn. It's all about the teacher, to be honest, I had a teacher and that one made me want to give up but you gave me the will back. Thank you so much for your content, I am so grateful. I look forward to do my contest and send you the video, it would be thanks to you if I make it. Please keep that beautiful and sweet energy that you have.
I love you,I love the way you break it down it's so much easier to practice with your tutorial but I'd like to know the kind of dresses it can be do e with
Crystal you are amazing mam you are so polite and respectful to the comments and about the knowledge you shared turned out to be very helpful and I learnt perfect ramp from you.Love from India🇮🇳🥰🥰🥰
Thank you well learn from here our 10th year old daughter is competing in her first peagent we don't know how to teach her and we found you tutoring person's who needs to learn peagent thank you very much 😊😊😊😊❤❤😊❤😊❤😊❤
I practice Pilates to train my core to be as strong as possible. My favorite is Mari Winsors 20 Minute Pilates Workout. It's challenging but doable. It really gets you into the habit of engaging your core and works very quickly. I noticed a change in the way the waistlines of my clothes fit after only about 3 days. It's great for your posture, which in pageantry, is sooo important. 😊
Hi, Crystal... just thought I'd tell you that many, many years ago what you call "the twirl" was done in runway modeling. Back then it was known as "The Dior Pivot" and was used in the main designer salons to especially show off the long gowns with full skirts, like the show stopper Wedding Gowns. Since you asked.... ;-)
THE DIOR PIVOT!! wow thank you so much!! I didn’t know how to google it to find the term but I’m going to start calling it that. Appreciate you sharing that fun fact!
5:25 for me, that is named full-turn. I've been in a model agency for almost 3 years and yeah my coach told me that is a full-turn :) and also, for the "twist" is also a different movement, like when you finished posing you wanna turn around to go back, so twist is a good way for it. i believe the twist is used for pageants & supermodel
Wonderful video & the way you teach with many different example to correctly understand it.I wanted to learn this skill& got it to ur videos.excellent teaching techniques.withs lots of love from India❤️🔥🙏
Very impressive, love your elegance. It really is helpful, but do you think i can be that elegant and graceful at age 16 with no previous experience whatsoever.
Hi, Crystal....love your very informative video. Just thought I'd let you know, for the future, our midsection is called a "midriff"-not a "midrift". There's no "t". Sorry I keep correcting you, but like they say.."Those who can...DO. Those who can't CRITICIZE." LOL I'm 87 now and can't do those neat turns anymore. Darn! !
@@CrystalClues that's cool. I also watched a video wherein you talked about how you were a ballet dancer and how some techniques can be applied to pageants as well ☺️ I also do a slight variation of your pageant turn where I cross one foot over the other, raise my heels and turn ☺️
This video is quite helpful for me. I am Sneha George, from India. And I am preparing myself for the upcoming pageant Femina Miss India. Can you please share some tips so that I can learn and improvise and make myself better than anybody else in the audition round? Please!!
Hi Sneha nice to meet you and thanks for dropping by my channel! Depending on your area of competition, I’ve made a few other videos related to pageantry which you can see on my “Pageantry” playlist. I’m not too familiar with Femina Miss India but if there’s a specific area of competition on your mind, let me know and I’ll try to address it in an upcoming video :) Good luck!
Hi! Thank you for your quick response, I am so obliged! Femina Miss India is a pagent which will lead towards the road of Miss World. I have watched all your videos and I did really learnt a lot from you channel and videos. And I am grateful to you for uploading such unique tips. I am working on my mind skills and aptitude, I have my vision and mission about my role to the society, am working on my pose, walk and body language, smile and everything possible to make me win this pageant. Thank you for uploading videos. There are people like me who are really inspired by you. You are doing a great job. Love from India
Sneha George you’re so sweet! It’s SO cool that your pageant may take you to Miss World 🌏 I hope you win!! I’ll keep uploading different topics but in the meantime it’s just great to see that you’re taking advantage of all the resources online. There are some great “ramp walk” videos produced in India which I have enjoyed watching too. Soak in everything from other experts and women out there too . Within the pageant coaching community, we don’t always agree. (It’s a good thing .. keeps things interesting!) Coaches all have different opinions, ways of doing things, and perspectives so I say take them ALL in and then decide for yourself what works best for you and feels right. You have the right attitude going into the auditions. Best of luck!! Go Sneha!
Thank you that you have given me so special and good wishes. You are really an amazing teacher.. I will definitely give my best. Thank you Dear. I m eagerly waiting for your new videos and contents
Hi Shreya, bless you for checking back in for continuing to be such a faithful subscriber! Since the pandemic is ending in United States, work has picked up big-time but I’m still hoping to upload later this year when I have a free chance 😭😭 In the meantime, what is your favorite topic? Anything specific that I can answer in written form?
Hi Fatma I do it at least once a week now but the funny thing is that once I stopped competing, it got a lot easier to workout because I could focus on how I felt and overall health and well-being rather than this specific goal. it was like a light had turned on because I was suddenly doing it for myself and not for a contest. I would encourage you to think about it in terms of building a lifelong habit because once you start doing things for a higher purpose, it becomes a lot easier to stick with it. Also don’t kill yourself on the first few workouts. Ease yourself into it slowly and make it simple to do in the beginning. Starting out, the key is consistency rather than intensity.
@@CrystalClues thanks for the reply n tip . Am not doing t for the contest but it has been my dream to get abs n i dint have a tangible motivation so now i get full motivation from the contest n still after have t as a lifestyle coz i love my body its my general confidence mirror .
I love that!! “My body is my general confidence mirror.” Girl that belongs on a sign above my bathroom sink haha. Fatma if it’s your dream to get abs, you can 100% do it.
@@justfatma629 Hi Fatma, I was thinking about you and decided to make this video of the 8 minute ab workouts I did leading up to my pageants. th-cam.com/video/BzrJ5FBID1c/w-d-xo.html I hate doing sit ups but honestly structuring 8 minutes every day to just get it out of the way in the morning made it a lot easier. I also go for time not for reps. So I just do the exercises for 40-45 seconds and on days when I feel tired, I do them slower. I personally like having a routine and I just tell myself "this is going to be the hardest 8 minutes of my day. I can do it!"
@@CrystalClues waow thankyouu...i probably have to watch this ... the only you tuber i knw who interacts lively with viewers... May your channel grow each day enormously !
Hi Jarnabi - thanks for your request - yes, I'm happy to. Do you mean like runway model? I'm adding it to the list for open videos I've yet to do. (I'm just in a middle of a move right now so give me a bit of time pls :) )
Please do more of these !! I feel that there isn’t enough videos on what turns and poses you can do for a pageant ! Thank you !
Sounds good Skarlet - thanks for watching! I’ll film another one on poses
Who did your photo!? OMG you're stunning.
This is so being a returning model I have been able to get the different turns and steps and poses but for fashion shows and pageant is a whole level up.. 😊

This is just what I needed! a walk-thru, step by step because its such a tricky step (but lovely when mastered!)

Hi! I think the "pageant turn" is called pirouette. I do it in pageants, love it for swimsuit routines! ❤️
Ah thanks Cess! I come from the dance world where pirouette is also a type of turn so it’s interesting that it applies to both kinds!
