    I have been doing ballet for two years and I can do 4 pirouettes. My advice is to start turning slow and controlled. You will learn how to balance and spot easier. Once you get good at that you can try turning faster or try different styles. I practiced every time I was in front of the tv on carpet and I have improved so much! Good luck and keep practicing!

  • @jordynm.1744

    The key to your side battement is keeping your hips turned out. You want your arm to be shoulder above the elbow, elbow above the wrist, wrist in line with your pointer finger so your arm looks like one soft line. I noticed you kick behind your arm which is bad because both hips are not turned out evenly. Make sure to kick in front of the hip, not in line with it, your kicks will go SO much higher. Just tips from one dancer to other dancers!

    With the kicks at 1:36 , if you are finding it hard to get your feet straight into fifth position you can relax it a little into 3rd position.
    Also, before you close straight in you can put your foot down into a tondu before closing it.

      +TreeSap GT hi! Yes it is!!! Also, doing a wallsplit (or in the door you can do it too!!) (doesnt have to be all the way!) but make your wallsplit a scorpion!! That way you're stretching your scorpion all the wall, and that way it will become so much easier!

    Hey there so I have been doing dance for years and I have always been really weird and slightly bad with my turns and balancing. Somehow, I can't balance without putting one foot slightly behind the other. I had quad problems around 3 years ago and I still can't get my balance correct. It's made its way into messing up my turns. Any more tips?
