Make no mistake I am not saying that he is totally wrong, but you can become a pro without real turn out as they call it. correction without real turn out.
some of the best dancers I have known use this fake turn out. My opinion is use what you have. Work the smartest way possible. Develope your art to your fullest. But dont force it. Improve it over time. It can improve.
In a 2008 study, 204 ballet dancers were screened over a five-year period to identify injury patterns in elite pre-professional ballet dancers. The study found that 32 to 51 percent of the dancers were injured each year. Of those injured: 53 percent of injuries occurred in the foot/ankle; 21.6 percent of injuries occurred in the hip;
16.1 percent of injuries occurred in the knee; 9.4 percent of injuries in occurred in the back.
The vast majority of injuries are the result of overuse rather than trauma. These injuries tend to occur at the foot/ankle/ lower leg, low back, and hip. The foot/ankle/lower leg area is vulnerable to a wide range of injuries, including stress fractures, tendon injuries, sprains, and strains.
I have been trained by Russian Teachers in South America...I've learned to stretch the leg out to its maximum...Only in America I started to see the FAKE turn out, and told that it was better. It did not make any sense to me. THANK YOU ! for explaining this controversial issue. I agree 100% with you...THANK YOU !!!!

Not an "arch" but it is pull-up. The "Russian back" it is called. This is correct for this Method of ballet.
