ballet techniques---triple pirouettes

[thebuffkins]

the second girls passe is not supposed to be that high its not supposed to go above the knee. that said im insanely jealous of her pirouettes....

[DanceLuva1231]

i feel real different and uncoordinated right now

[mariinskylover9]

they are soo good at balancing!

[littlesheep11]

wow...great everyone different, own style. But i loved it!!!

[casualsharpiee]

Can i just be one of them for a day??? just to know what it feels like to look so beautiful? k cool.

[MissFreakize2]

This made me feel like a retarded frog.

[carmydancer]

these girls are amazing.

[lifesnmp3]

some people were just born to pirouette! I was not. I was born to do adage... :)

[isaah1307]

what a nice passet the second girl made

[sbbw98]

My self esteem is 300 % lower after watching that.  Either those are some freakishly good dancers or someone is freakishly good at video editing.

[Audilee1124]

Wish mine looked this good omg

[WhoAmIReallyJC]

They all look like one girl lol

[yuanyi1993]

@WhoAmIReallyJC Actually.... they' look so different in their styles...

[RockAngel58]

theyre so tall and thin and graceful. wow.

[witchtwins13]

They have incredible spotting speed! I really need to work on mine! Its terrible...Any ideas?

[42434641310]

WOW.

[LexieBoo2992]

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL ! The technique was really on point , and I hope one day I can be as good as them !

[jetizon]

gawd... the teacher in the beginning sounds like she would eat you. YEE BAY.. QING! ** MONSTER ROARSS

[0Angelfromheaven0]

OMG! They are sooo elegant!! They are fenomenal!!

[kookiez555]

they have very niche high demi pointes!

[missymoomooo]

so perfect!! 

[Thrillerlover96]

Oh my goodness!

 I wish I could do that

[nwsafreshman]

Amaaazing.

[Annuhz]

omg....

[horseanddoglover777]

I'm trying to learn how to do this (I don't take ballet but I love dancing) but I can't keep my spins going I can't even do one correctly I have pretty good balance and I know how to spot but I keep trying and I can't get it any advice???

[thatscaraful]

@horseanddoglover777 keep your arms structured (like what thelittlescreening said), spot, keep a high releve, keep a high passe, squeeze your butt muscles, keep your core strong (ab workouts!)

and instead of doing ballet pirouettes, you should first learn jazz pirouettes. they're much easier. you can just build from there. good luck :)

[CrazyForPianosGirl]

@horseanddoglover777 DO IT EVRY DAY! without fail, try going to a dance class, it helps!

[Kata397533]

@horseanddoglover777 maybe post a video? cuz you can't really be given any advice until other people see exactly what the problem is.

[emilysmall1]

I like the first girl the best. they are all amazing though

[TheLittleScreening]

when they are turning,, they really shouldnt have their hands so high up and so close to the body,, as this puts you in more danger of not doing the turns...

[DBCOOPER888]

@TheLittleScreening Isn't that the opposite of what they need to do?

[TheLittleScreening]

@DBCOOPER888 no --its more useful if they had more structure in their arms to keep them more balanced,,you do this by making your arms lower and more structured it will help you keep your balance and you would be able to do more turns.

[RoxyBallet]

Only the first one looks healthy..

[LadieLola]

If you can do ballet you can do anything. the strength, skill and determination means that after ballet, you will find everything else super easy.

[Kikiomme]

them are just perfectt!

[4everhogwarts]

This is really good. It would just be a lot better en pointe. :)

[FranchescaIleana]

They are really good but shouldn't the passe be placed directly at the knee or a tiny bit below?

[mothafukingprincess]

@FranchescaIleana

No. the higher the passe, the more turns you can do

[Readyand5678]

veeeeerrrrry impressive

[yaymeIamanut]

@dancingqueen897 somebody's jealous :P

[paulinoukalou]

It might be because of their super hard training!!!

[emmsgurl16]

they keep rolling their ankles in which is going to cause severe damage in later life

[BeatriceMoonlight]

@emmsgurl16 I didn't understand what you are trying to say. Go to my channel, please, and explain better; because I'm a dancer and I would like to know that problems that I can have later (:

[loveeballet152]

the second girl's passe is sooo freaking high!! wow, they're incredible and beautiful

[mountaindew492]

@loveeballet152 can you tell me what a passe is? thank you

[Xxrockerchic229xX]

@loveeballet152 what's passe? sorry i'm going to try and take ballet classes this sumemr! :D

[Jerabeth98]

@Xxrockerchic229xX It's when your pointed foot goes up to your knee.

[idk1505]

@Xxrockerchic229xX a passe is when they take a routine or combination across the diagonal of the floor and it can also be taken horizontally across the floor. usually in public dance studios they call it "across the floor" thx and hope u have a fun time learning ballet its really fun but it takes a lot of discipline and practice so dont give up!!!!

[lilmisslollyboo]

@idk1505 no it's where your foot comes just below the knee in pirouettes...

[jennyluvballet]

@lilmisslollyboo I thought it should be right above the knee...

[MrKLT1945]

@lilmisslollyboo CORRECT!

[FyreBalletDancer]

@idk1505 uh no ... it's a position as discribed below. thats just a diagonal, there's no other word (i think) ...

[MrKLT1945]

@FyreBalletDancer Normally 'en diagonale' is used. Or, 'Up in theR/L corner, everyone'... then you know you are about to work the diagonals. Yes, passe is a positioning of the foot , often on its way to somewhere else. They are pretty amazing, aren't they? lol

[FyreBalletDancer]

@MrKLT1945 yeah technique is so clean !!

[SnowyNov]

I can't even do 2! They are well trained!!!

[HorsesandPointeShoes]

these guys amazing!  if only they're leotards fit them....

[DazzIeBerry]

WOW!

Well I think I'll just go die now..

[ElsieMolenaarLover]

@DazzIeBerry moi too...

[ClaireBallerina]

@DazzIeBerry Let me join you.

[ButrScochMonks]

at first i thought they were on pointe but when i saw there feet they just had extremely high demi pointe!

[hackingtime88]

not point toe

[NinjaTree6]

very clean! wow i'm impressed for once. most youtubers post videos of horrible technique and sloppy turns. but these are flawless.

[enpointe64]

Wowowow! We want to see more! :D

[mrsladida]

I did this same dance used to do triple pirouhettes, but somehow, I lost my balance, and I can't even do one. It's weird. =(

[viewetteer2005]

wonderful wonderful wonderful!

[0XsailormoonX0]

I can to a double, then fall out. xD

I'dd really like to do a triple & I hate how they make it look easy! D:

& I'm also trying to do Fuettes. They're so pretty. <3

[ctrichell]

that was beautiful

[cellphonegirl360]

ok i liyed i did fuettes and i did 5 i get wrose ever time i do them what the heck !!!!!!!??? can someone help me with this

[cellphonegirl360]

AHHHH I GOT MY TRIPLE TURNS WHEN I WAS SEVEN THEIR ACTUALLY NOT EVEN HARD MY TEACHER SAYS IM A GOOD TURNER BUT IM TRINGING TO DO FUTETTS AND I CAN ONLY DO 10 HELP ME SOMEBODY

[Ballet4Everz]

what??!! these are practically jazz turns, wth is with her arms??

[jehsuaabrazilionn1]

@Ballet4Everz it's just the difference in technique. It differs with the different schools whether it be RAD or Balanchine or Chiccheti.. this is just a variation in technique i suppose

[Ballet4Everz]

@jehsuaabrazilionn1 kk, sry, im just used to the RAD version.

[obliviouspie]

@Ballet4Everz lol so am I. I did my RAD advanced 2 six years ago and passed with disctinction and I can tell you that these pirouettes are just fine. Also, I didn't say they were doing a pas de deux, I was merely stating the fact that they will need to pirouette with their arms in later :)

Also, I'd love to see you do this exercise. Maybe a video of yourself doing this exercise with as much control would make me reconsider your opnion.

[Ballet4Everz]

@obliviouspie actually, i think that it would be fun do to a video of this excercise! thanks for the suggestion :D and i didnt say that the pirouettes are bad, im just confused with the arms.

[jehsuaabrazilionn1]

@Ballet4Everz no biggie. I'm trained in Chiccheti and French so they looked slightly different than how i would do them..never the less these girls are incredible.

[Ballet4Everz]

@jehsuaabrazilionn1 ive never heard of french, are theyre any videos of the curriculum

[jehsuaabrazilionn1]

@Ballet4Everz Not sure. I have never looked. I'm sure there are somewhere.?

[obliviouspie]

@Ballet4Everz these are most certainly NOT jazz turns. Firstly, jazz turns are not turned out (or nowhere near as turned out), they are not done on such a high demi-pointe either. Also, did you know that for multiple pirouettes you need to have your arms lower and closer than a normal first because they put you off balance- it's actually a matter of physics here. Finally, most females do multiple pirouettes in a pas de deux where their arms must be close to them or else they'll hit the guy!

[Ballet4Everz]

@obliviouspie well this isnt a pas de deux.

[NinjaTree6]

@Ballet4Everz

wow shuttup. you have the nerve to give yourself a ballet user name, and you don't even recognize perfect triple pirouettes when you see them?

[Missballet13]

You freaky children! You make it look so simple!!! Congrats!!

[KJHLovA]

D= i suck at turns >.> I can't even do doubles properly, let alone triples D=

[jonas5921]

@KJHLovA thats my problem 2 !!!

[sweetliar18]

i can do a triple i can do a triple(but lets not count me falling on my face with all the trys) i can also do a double on point and i just started in june

[OFFICALevilfoods]

Omg I'm like so happy cause I did a triple pirouette without any one teaching me!!! They are awesome!

[takaoyona90]

how do they make it look sooo easy? adding to my favourites! :) any tips??

[MrTongalata]

Nice. Big tip- keep center tight, and spot your heard.

[oreopie090]

on the first two they r only doing 2 1/2 :) just an ego booster

[takaoyona90]

woah any tips? how did they do it

[TheSensationalMusic]

[annalee27997]

OMG how do they do it, It took me 2 months to learn how to do One triple.

[dancerbabyy03]

uh so maybe i should stop watchin videos and go practice haha. :(

[LuvKaysley]

They look the same lol

[DazzIeBerry]

Whaat! Whoever says they have bad technique is crazy. I feel like crap now. I'm going to go practice...

[tutugrl27]

It's so weird to see how high they wear their leotards. Everyone i know is always yanking them down.

[SeaShellBeauty]

Sorry, but their technique is kind of bad :/.

[4rwells]

@SeaShellBeauty agreed and when they do the peroettes their foot is sicled

[MeestarJennyCake]

@4rwells Their PASSE when doing PIROUETTES don't look like they're sickled.

Please learn how to spell correctly.

[balleticgirl2311wp]

@4rwells id like to see you do what they did

[4rwells]

@balleticgirl2311wp well i never said they werent good they are and ur right i cant do a tripple yet but i dnt go around bragging im working on it and id get why ppl get so upset cuz ppl are voicing their opinion... so yess the dancers and sorry if i misstepped it just looked like it from the vid. im no expert im still learning ok

[balleticgirl2311wp]

@4rwells ok sure whatever you say but the truth is in front for your eyes

[4rwells]

@balleticgirl2311wp welll excuse mee... i actually know how to dancee... unlikee someonee heree... cough balleticgirl2311wp cough.

[balleticgirl2311wp]

@SeaShellBeauty haha whats your definition of bad?

[balleticgirl2311wp]

@SeaShellBeauty wow really? do you even dance?

[SeaShellBeauty]

@balleticgirl2311wp Lmao, actually, yes, I do. I'm in an arts school for dancing (audition required), I've won numerous awards and I have gone to many summer programs for dancing. So yeah, I'd think I'd know what I was talking about.

[balleticgirl2311wp]

@SeaShellBeauty haha well then you must know how hard it is. and thats quite impressive, but these girls are professional dancers and until you've experienced professional training i don't think you will actually understand the difficulty of ballet

[SeaShellBeauty]

@balleticgirl2311wp Being a professional doesn't mean you're good...

[balleticgirl2311wp]

@SeaShellBeauty haha well if its considered professional then it would probably be better than recreational

[SeaShellBeauty]

@balleticgirl2311wp Honestly, not necessarily.

[balleticgirl2311wp]

@SeaShellBeauty ok sure whatever but seriously these girls are better than most professional students of their age.

[GaabiBarbosa1]

elas são exceleeeeeeeeeentes. Perfeição em cada movimento

[kittykawaiiX3]

anorexy?

[JulieSDokken]

I think their arms are a little too close to their bodies while turning for my taste, but otherwise they're really great dancers!

[ButrScochMonks]

their posse is high!

[TheCutieQ]

damn a triple isn't easy XD maybe for them but damn they make it look like its nothing XD

[kiwi567388]

@sparklypinktoast YUP :D

[lelleballerina]

magnifiche

[danzgirlable]

The fourth girl had really pretty feet!

[Hushpuppygirl]

This video is what started my passion for dance.

[LaTuaCantante0894]

I've been dancing for four months total and i hit my triple last month :) exciting!

[frozentears92]

As absolutely beautiful and well done that is I must say that they seem to have no enjoyment on their faces. Their eyes look dead. But again everything was beautiful. Hell I wanna do that lol

[Msamichika]

they all are so skinny and have nice legs !!!!!!!!

do you guys know how old are they?

[dancindiva33]

very very gerate dancer's

[sdfjkgrace]

HOW?!??!?!?!?! ahaha

[dcfanatic93]

I've always been taught to go onto a straight leg when doing a pique. they're doing a bent like then extending it. isn't that bad for your knees? but the pirouettes are amazing!

[MajorBunHead]

@dcfanatic93 no its not bad.

[dcfanatic93]

@MajorBunHead

i asked my dance teacher. she said it could be bad for little kids but for a strong trained knee it usually doesn't effect us

[dallyn22]

@dcfanatic93 they're performing a releve arabesque instead of a pique.

[dcfanatic93]

@dallyn22

yeah i know. i was jw if it was bad. but i asked my dance teacher and she explained it to me. it's safe for strong trained knees

[PRINCEss98BUBBLEEA]

this is china 1

[kfmcmahon]

The 2nd girl's passé is so high!!

[3toedsloth1]

aren't their legs a little high on the pirouttes? isn't it supposed to be at the side of the knee rather than resting alomost on the thigh?

[bolshoiboy8]

theres diferent styles... vaganova does it differently than the british and italian blah blah blah...

[annafabulousxd]

yeah and i think their hands are way high too. arent they suppose to be in front of their belly button?

[mynamebabeballet]

they look so clean :DD

[plaidshirtsrock]

there twigs!! they are deadly skinny!

[4dancingal]

@plaidshirtsrock just because somebody is skinny doesn't mean they are unhealthy.

[TheMelissaZone]

They are so SKINNEH!

[fallen0a]

It's hillarious how some of you guys think that there is only one type of passé. There's not =\

[caseygirl23675]

do you know how easy they make this look?

i try to do my triple and fall out almost immediately. :[[

[kebabqueen17]

@caseygirl23675...omg...I totally agree with you! They make it look like a stroll in the park! LOL! Wish I could do my pirouttes like that.

[degrassigrl190]

@caseygirl23675 me to! i cant do a perfect double and randomly a tiple but when i try for it again i fal out of it!

[TheAnaisP]

@caseygirl23675 ikr it is very hard i can barely do a double without falling on my butt (which i have done many times in class)

[Dancehappy911]

thier feet are to over crossed

[bRuNn3tt3]

@Dancehappy911 that's a technique...just how they are trained

[xoxpamiixox]

lol you can never be too overcrossed

[choco1154]

I love the color of their leotards.

[xwesnaa]

ye...my tacher is teaching me to do a little above knee and try to raise it meanwhile pirouettes...I just did 3 and balance today :D

[jaybrose]

their passe is beautiful!

[relkitto]

Incredible. Wonderful work.

[sanmanuel1]

I was taught to put passé in the little hollow under your kneecap, but not resting there... :)

[LaaMaaraavish]

awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :DDDDDD

[idinakristinwicked]

They were great but they should try not to put their foot in front of their knee. They should barely touch their knee with their toe it creates a better line that way.

[Pilita13]

yo creo que no es una cosa muy asombrosa viniendo de chinos.. no soy discriminadora ni nada de eso.. esque la mayoria de ellos son muy flexibles.. igual hacen mucho trabajo pero yo creo que la mayoria nacen con un don.. y no es una cosa muy asombrosa.. y aveces eso no me gusta porque la gente los usa

[ScHnitzLLlicious92]

wish i could do that...

[saranewton429]

Is this high crossed over passe a new thing? I think it looks ugly.

[sweetie12308]

their toes are crossing over their knee it is supposed to just touch your knee with the tip of your toe

[lucysk8s]

EASY!!!!

[angeliki1994]

nice......!

[TeftG]

their technique is fucking great, these girls are so good. And yes I'm also jealous, i can't do a triple (i hate myself fot this haha), well they are great. :D

[turbotone64]

I agree and I know how you feel as I feel crap for not being able to do even a double!

[chewkster123]

you should

[turbotone64]

@chewkster123 Up yours, jerk off. I'd like to see you do one.

[thesaltyflower]

she was very good, but she didn't spot meaning she must get very dizzy. if she is a ballerina why did she not spot? i do not understand,

[whisperwingsaway]

no, they all spotted o_O

[angelinangel]

@thesaltyflower they spotted. and are really graceful. haha

[zami12]

those balerina were really good but not be rude or to cut or anything but why are theyr legs so skinny

[angelinangel]

@zami12 skinny legs are hot =P

[zami12]

i never said they werent i was just asking a question

[PriincessNOT]

because chinease people are horrible and they starve them ........ its true

[TheDanceJunkie]

@PriincessNOT they arent horrible..they have great techniqe

[PriincessNOT]

no i mean their teachers .... they starve them and treat them with no respect

[TheDanceJunkie]

@PriincessNOT probably they eat just small and frequently.

[PriincessNOT]

ermm no in gymnastcis they beat them, treat them with no repsect and only feed them a lil bit .. and they only get to see there parents once a year. same with ice skating and ballet...

[TheDanceJunkie]

@PriincessNOT ermm be positive. Probably they r NATRULLY skinny. How do the teacher get in their house and tell them wat to eat..For all i know some ppl who r like that and 17 sit around all day wating chips..Maybe they have a fast metabalism which is the way they burn fat n calories.
