  • ...I'm kind of confused....how is she an advanced dancer if her turnout sucks so much? Her tendu (for prep) wasn't to the side if that's what she was trying and you should either land in fifth or like a lunge or something, not whatever she did.

  • she's got beautiful feet...!!!

  • Thank you so much for helping me, with ONE side anyway, even if you flunked the other, this helped a little.

  • 1 sided dancers should NOT be advanced

  • You kids may know a lot about ballet, but you know nothing about manners.

  • Um good for all of you people that can do triples and stuff but this video was designed to teach people who are trying to each themselves the basics of ballet, so good for you but do you really need to insult and make her feel bad. She can probably do triples too!

  • @vsquaredancer really? because it specifically says in the title "advanced"

  • i thought i could dance....now i can see that i totally suck

  • I have the most horrible time doing right pirouettes- i can do triple turns pretty easily on the left but even my doubles on right are incredibly messy- what do you guys think i should do to improve?

  • I am 11 and I can do a tripple pirouette! Yey 4 me! I just learned it about 5 days ago!

  • @dancergal82 congratiolation!!!! iam learning good doubles pirouettes, sometimes its so easy and other times its impossible, i dont know why...:(

  • @dancergal82 too bad u cant spell it ;P lol jk

  • good thing she cant actually turn..im sure thats what we would all like to see

  • es malisima!!!!!!!!!

  • SHE SUX!

  • very good video. not exactly advanced, but still good. =)

  • your arms should be held by your belly button, not chest level.

  • no its ment to be near your chest. if u had it near your belly button, it would not make you spin fast and it wouldn't look very good

  • this is not advanced at all pirouettes are super simple

  • I honestly don't think that this is advance ballet. and your spot makes you turrn in a single pirouette not your arms.

  • ...i thought it was advanced... very good but you know lol

  • Awesome!!

  • i thought it would be a little bit more... advanced. but thanks i guess

  • It's not advanced

  • This is advanced for those who are not familiar with the form of dance.

  • no offence but i don't think that was for advanced people. i can do that better and im in grade 3 ballet!

  • OMG THE ARMS DONT MAKE YOU SPIN IN A SINGLE PIROUETTE!! its your spot!!

  • As well as your posse leg opening side

  • exactly, and the plié

  • i think its fairly advanced. many people CANNOT do an accurate pirouette. so i think its fairly advanced

  • this is not advanced. at all.

  • I agree, this is not advanced. you learn how to do a pirouette when your a beginner or at least the basics of pirouettes, but im intermediate ballet, 13 years old, and i can do 4 pirouettes. If you started off learning pirouettes when your advanced then the chances are you wouldnt be a prima ballerina when your older, girls at my ballet school can do 8 pirouettes, you have to start learning when your a beginner or at LEAST advanced.

    :)

  • why does it say advanced? and why does expertvillage employ people who can't even do what they are trying to demonstrate??

  • she is whattt?????good? ah ah ah ah!!!!

  • Wow, some of you people are really mean. Of course there is room for improvement as there is in everyone, but she was pretty good.

  • i completely agree and like i said many people cant do pirouettes well so most of these people shouldnt even be talking about what's advanced or not advanced because most people cannot perform an acceptable pirouette turn anyways! HAH!

  • i agree with "xoDancr4lifexo" i don't think those moves are advanced!

  • advanced?? i dont think

  • She needs to work on her turnout. Since the floor is wooden it must be very difficult to turn on it since it is slippery.

  • her rond de jambe sucks and her arms are ugly. and when your in releve your arms should be first position. you land in fourth not fifth.

  • you can land either way, i've seen turns land in second before

  • thats not right you land in fifth. and her rond de jambe was fine but u DO land in fifth

  • Comment removed

  • An advanced ballet dancer should have the ability to made at least one clean single pirouette to the left side.

  • @hellomisterb that was mean she tried (: and some times people make mistakes :P

  • @dancer4660 Then she should re-record the video. Everyone does make mistakes, even teachers. But, if she intends to teach through video, she should make sure the video is correct because once it is viewed by students, she can't change what they see, and that is what they will learn.

  • Your not meant to open your arm to help you turn? Your other arm joins it, and thats it?

  • I'm 14, on my 12 year of ballet, 2 en pointe and can double en pointe. Plus, retiré for pirouettes is devant (to the front). and you don't soutenu after you turn, beginners should learn to land in fourth, it helps develop turnout and discourages sickling. Plus when you tendu side for prep it should be side, not cornered. and her fourth was not lined up. In her defense though, if i was told to do a single flat, mine probably would look the same, once you get 4, its hard to single again.

  • i'm 14, on my 11 years of ballet, 3 en point and i can do 6 pirouettes en point. but i can do a single too. i don´t des-learn it.

  • shes bad at this

  • that was not good.

    definitely not something a beginner should be learning with

  • alrighty then.

  • i've been in ballet class for two weeks and i know that was horrible... she should be fired

  • you call that advanced? im 12 - ion my third year of ballet - nailing TRIPLES sometimes QUADS on a good day =]

  • sure :/

  • im 14 and on third too!!

  • then why are you watching?

  • its not your arm that turns you, its lifting up, and your plie

  • Exactly, i get yelled at when i use my arms to swing me around in a turn. She shouldn't teach it that way

  • Thank you, helped in the choreography of a dance.

  • woa. thats bad...... wow! thats really bad.....

  • Advanced ballet class?? She didn't even land the second one! I would say that mine are better but...I'm 6 months pregnant so I think I'd probably be a little off balance! haha <3 Ballet

  • bleh. She doesn't know what a pirouette is. You do not use your arms te get yourself around, most of your spinning comes from the turnout in your legs... if you tell people to use their arms, they will wind up and go crazy.

  • This vid is for everyone who DOESNT know hwo to do these. I can do that to but I dont go bragging about it for fun do I? So go shove it up your asa and let people learn.

  • don't be a brat.

  • the title says 'Pirouette in Advanced Ballet Dancing'. if you can do 5, WHY DID YOU watched, cjob1994west ?

  • I don't like expert village.. They get everything wrong lol (No offence)

  • that is sooo tue

    i agree 100%

  • Phhs, i dont even take ballet and im guessing your not supposed to move while your spinning.

  • errr.

  • what does that mean?

  • it means that any 7 year old from a ballet school can do that WAY better.
