Dance Video Lesson: Turning Firebird Leap

[Cyatty]

This is not a stag leap, whats wrong with you people

[fireluver13]

stag leap

[MonkeyLover987100]

it's called a turning STAG you morons who taught you to dance.. was it barney or elmo ooooohhh or maybe the muppets yep it was the muppets

[ycutiepie1997]

just think, these people are in their 20s and 9/10 have been dancing since they were 3. thats *points at video* what happens after 17+ years.

[afishy7]

thenks. this really helped me get this down. my teacher was impressed. :)

[indi1329pens]

I am so trying this hahaha!

[thebubbazubba]

I love how these girls aren't stick figures, and they still dance amazingly. It is proving a point to other dance studios who don't accept you unless you're anorexic.

[choc0gurl]

me either dude...i think i have the flexibility, but i dnt have the hops. i cannot get in the air for nething n the world lol

[KarmaNicole94]

I can do a regular firebird....but I'm kind of scared to try to turn it lol.

[thebubblemonster66]

Hey, expert village, IN YO FACE!

[dollyfan08]

They make it look so easy! I fell on my face the first time I tried this haha!

[StarRocks4life]

most of my teachers say im one of the best in the class and i didnt even know this existed

[valleyg]

i love this! it's so pretty!!

[KalexCullen]

I can't open up that much :(

[princezzjazzy97]

wow, i love your videos i subbed and favourited this:)

[chasehag]

Nice turning jump really glad I hooked up with you today.... LOve seeing new stuff

[unicornXrawr]

these are really hard. it took me about four weeks to perfect it. and my back cracks everytime i do it. lol

[thatDANCERgirl72]

arch more!(:

[rawrxrawr1324]

i cant get my opposite leg up completely!

[omgpurplemangos101]

I would've thought a tour jete would've been a different leg movement.

[Love2Dance233]

At my dance studio we start backwards and then we wont have to like to that extra switch kick and we call it the firebird as well.

[ybtdncr0]

we call those kinds of leaps off centers. and this kind of jump we call a scorpion

[ICantHearYa14]

what is the leap called where the front leg is the same as a front leap but the back leg is touching your head??

[hannahch3n]

i think it is called a calypso, fan leaf, adduite leap

[duckieluver22]

There are a few: the firebird and the calypso. But in a calypso, your back leg doesn't touch the head because it's in an attitude. :]

[rvirrun]

wow that one was beautiful.. can you please put chase, chase, firebird leap? same thing, simply without the turn. i would like to see your technique.

[tuti4steaua]

OH my gosh I'm so jealous of you people.I can't do half that stuff but I must be good at something since my ballet teacher picked me for a lead part in our show this year. I can't believe it. I hope I don't fall on my face on the stage now.

[musicalbanana22]

Ugh I spent three weeks of dance camp learning how to do that, I got it, and then I forgot...

[ILOVEJB12322]

Dang it!!! When ever i try to do this it turns into a Tourchete or how ever you spell it.

[tuckitty821]

Ballet is so much better!!!!!!!

[balletchick8092]

[tormal312]

[lemon4girl]

[lolaloliepop]

i've never heard of these. but i have got to learn how to do that!

[jbluv554]

dang. that was good.

[PunkBallet]

Bug I'm jelous of you people. I want to get into a dance academie and can't hardly do any of this :S

[MUSICisLIFE1429]

@PunkBallet well maybe you should start out at a lower level studio and then work your way up, your insturctors will teach you the basics and then work on leaps like these. thats what i did. if you want to get into dance, go for it, it is remarkable and so rewarding. best of luck :)

[MUSICisLIFE1429]

@PunkBallet maybe you should start out at a lower level studio to get the basics down and when you've conquered that, work your way up. thats what i did. if you want to get into dance, go for it! it is so remarkable and rewararding. best of luck :)

[BeepMii]

@PunkBallet me 2!

[HELLOWPIXIE]

@PunkBallet technique is important to get into dance academy , but it's mostly about your potential and if have the ear for music and flexibility and of course passion :) x
