Leaps & Turns

[kaylalabelle17]

I wish my develope leaps were that good...

[tutugirlie]

Goregeous height - sloppy arms. 4 the Love of Dance is right - the leaps should have been taught with using the arms first so they had the feel of more power coming from their legs; the arms could have been added later, and would have added even more power to their leaps.

[Natattack55]

Was that girl trying to scare us??? She looked funny to me lol : D

[LeopardForestCoffee]

y'all r really awesome!

[XoSweetestDownFallxO]

the arms are for power, i see them plenty everywherre on beginners and advanced dancers. considering iv been dancing since i was 4. seems pretty normal to me

[angelamarie88]

I need to see this in slow motion! I desperately want to learn those leaps!

[KewlEm11]

Awesomeeee!!

You should really check out danceovertome.tumblr.com

It has some really cool dance shots and videos!

[MOMOFAN001]

OH LOOK IM A JUMPING STARFISH XDDD (just kiddin)

[DanceLuva1231]

@dancer4Life4436 i rlly do agree with u but your ballet they dont seem like ballerina trained at all lol

[richarevans]

Is that Britney in the white? Only she looks like she's put on a little weight.

Only kidding, excellent stuff, my daughter enjoyed it lots.

[fptheatregeek]

U guys are great! U really got the air for your jumps and leaps a few of u guys need to point ur feet though

[Jordyn3102]

nick legs in the leps they were really high but the arm could have been better. nice axels!!!!!!

[Kbabii1999]

it'd be alot easier to watch for arms & legs if they were wearing leotards.

[kamwrites]

I've gotta say....some of these comments are just idiotic.

[xxasha96xx]

whats the jump called at 1.00??

[broadwaybabe35]

Arms ladies!

[The1qtpie]

lol her arms are having seizures hahaha (girl inpurple)

[Thatoneechicc]

dancing in socks is danderous.... thats all i have to say.

[cutie42618]

@dancer4Life4436 I am a competitive dancer! I do jazz,ballet,tap,contemporary,l­yrical,pointe,conditioning,and voice and drama! Ballet leap arms are different that jazz leap arms..... Just as a ballet pase are different than a jazz pase

[dancer4Life4436]

As a ballerina I would say this is the worst video ever there arms are horrible! The feet are terrible the not at all great dancers this infuriates me!

[kamwrites]

@dancer4Life4436 Good thing they're not ballerinas, huh? Different types of dance out there, darling, and different training exercises for each one.

[Emmasjudogirll]

Im a dancer and I look at this video all the time and their arms suck!!!!!!The worst arms are the girl with ......Well all of them..........And their feet were flex not pointed in the leaps.. Like the grand jets

[moonwalkerbremj]

im loving the random zombie girl at the end:)

[Banapoly]

Are they supposed to look that randomly dressed? lol at

[capslock124]

That was really nice. I'm a dancer and I starting to learn some of the things you guys are doing and I thought that was kind of helpful. :) and also really don't think it makes a difference if you have the same clothes are or not. It's dance, not fashion.

[Emmasjudogirll]

me too.But control the arms. And travel more. Sometimes ur feet werent pointed

[ashlynizHOT]

Yalls arms suckk im 12 and im a WAYYYYY better dancer!!

[beaniex14]

why isnt there a dress code at every dance studio? it bothers me.

[bbooboo]

Fat, tubesock girl is the best.

[jfluter]

@bbooboo She isn't fat.  She looks pretty muscular to me!

[green5melons]

great legs. awful arms, throwing them up like that.

[4LoveOfDance]

@green5melons Judging by the entirety of their leaps, without throwing their arms like that, they wouldn't have enough power and height to get their legs as high off the ground. They should have been taught with lighter arms first. :/ If they attempted to do pretty arms now, they wouldn't soar.

[ohhemmgeeitsjenna]

@ShowStopper944 AMEN

[sb9692]

ahhh arms are everywhere..place them please! and also hands..yikes

[mybabygymnast]

i am 12 i do wayyyy harder sutff

[sliceofjude]

@mybabygymnast thats great. :l

[sportyandflirty123]

@mybabygymnast

umm ya wanna shut up.... CUZ THAT WOULD BE BETTER FOR EVERYONE!!!! its not cool to show off i can dance better 2 but that doesnt mean u try to boast no one is jelous of u k

[polkie45]

what?

[purplespottedcows1]

arms people! clean the arms pleaseee!

[taylorswiftfan51]

I hate it when "dancers" don't wear tights and leotards, the junky baggy clothing really gets in the way of your lines and technique and is not needed after warm ups. and doesn't anyone practice ballet technique anymore? or does everyone just focus on the cool tricks no matter what they look like?

[mmoerl01]

i hate to be picky, but im seeing a lot of inverted preparations and walking with the heels....my instructors are really strict about that stuff idk if you guys really work on it but it just makes the overall performance a whole lot smoother...great extension though :)

[TheDanceCentreStudio]

GIRL AT THE END??? anyone?

[ayyitsashleyy]

Something my dance instructor tells me, when you throw your arms up keep your shoulders down. Or it looks like you have no neck and it's ugly haha.

[EvVieNiamhNyx]

ANY ONE NOTICE THE ;fake; BLOODY GIRL IN THE END?? no one seems to point it out. .@.@. yes iive losst my miiind.

[PrincessEmilyN15]

@EvVieNiamhNyx I agree lol!

[Emmasjudogirll]

its good placement. But the arms were alittle crazy but the jete and leaps were really good.The one where you shase then you turn around and do a grand jete in front were good. At my jazz class we start facing the back. Its kinda easier but they were good

[lovestodance2014]

The leaps are good, but I did notice they didn't brush through the floor. The developayed (idk how to spell it, its a french word) their front leg most of the time. I think they might want to work on that, because its a very hard habit to break. but they were still good!

[yoda5888]

I'm with the other poster. I went to a non competitive dance company so perfection was not something they forced down our thoats but we were taught to control our arms. You girls are excelent dancers! Keep up the good work and rewatch this video and note that arms should be in position and not flailing in the air. Which ever position you choose is fine but be sure to chose one.

[awebb99]

I love this videoo. i watch it all the timee

[caitlinpaige012]

i'm not gunna lie,,, the ending scared me lol...but good job =)

[bribri1164]

1:31 axle turn leap turn side leap ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh i wish mine were that amazing

[deruudster]

Haha hilarious ending

[jch12341]

The one with the knee high socks looks like Courtney Galliano from Sytycd. I wouldn't be surprised if it was :)

[lexx773]

weirdest prep for surprise leaps i have ever seen

[MissCanadianDancer]

awesome love it!!!!!!!!

[TheSHlRTS]

What the hell is with the ending? Very immature.

[PureSoapCleans]

Nice and big studio. Great for practicing your jump.

Good job!

[aagrr1]

how is she on that floor doing that stuff with socks on?

[hannahhbonana]

These girls are all amazing dancers but the baggy clothes are covering up their talent

[Splat771]

those girls r so good im a im as good as u and im just 10

[jerkinkingt]

@Splat771 you really dont have to be mean you dont know if they were doing this stuff at 8 yr old and then got older and they still had it , don't be rude

[Splat771]

@jerkinkingt im sorryi was not tryimg to be rude iwas just telling u im as good as u and i just read what i said and it does soud rude but i was not trying to sorry

[camibrooke]

@Splat771 Yeah right

[camibrooke]

@Splat771 JK!!

[Splat771]

@camibrooke what

[GameDork8]

omg you all are so stuck up. Really? The video was great! The girl at the end was probably just in costume for something. No need to get your ballet shoes in a nook

[Thatvideogamefreak1]

@tutuluverish They are called fouettes and you can just tupe in at the search bar,"How to Fouette" and I'm sure they'll have some videos in which you can learn it. But they are hard, trust me.

[nicolelifi]

nice job :)

what is the name of the song

[cocobunny2121]

@nicolelifi smells like teen spirit by nirvana

[craftdancer]

the called turns and seconds and sure you have to get lots of strangth in your legs before you can do them

[ThePointe247]

whoa

[salleamartins]

the girl in the red shorts needs to point all the way through her feet. And some of the dancers need to lock out their knees. But good job:)

[blueydleprechaun]

White shirt, gray shorts is the only one who's controlling her jumps.......

[tutuluverish]

at 1:22 what are those spins called and how can i learn to do them?

[BlowOut297]

@tutuluverish Theyre called seconds. Theyre a bit tricker than normal pirouettes.

[aMixtureofEverything]

@tutuluverish They're called grand pirouettes and ask your teacher



[123twilight456daisy]

where did u get the words on the back wall??

[SarahIsOkie]

Can someone make a tutorial on how to do 1:22-1:24?

[uncopied]

Whats the jump at 130?? It looks really cool ^_^

[dancingpretty93]

@uncopied its called an axel turn

[prancer303]

@uncopied It's called an axle :)

[danceloverxox0]

girl with the socks is sooooooo good

[lilly2000layla]

@danceloverxox0 for a small ballet school yeah i guess so.a bit big tho

[Emmasjudogirll]

@danceloverxox0

she's ok

[mstud333]

Ummm... I can actually do almost all these leaps and I'm 11... Haha my studio is really challenging and it's turning seconds at :50 for all you peeps that ask

[MuffinssAstrid]

@mstud333 whats your point? trying to show off or what?

[PiNKRIZE]

whats the move called at 1:10? i really want to learn it ^_^

[the3muskeets]

@PiNKRIZE Turning russian

[ellaclairefordance]

@PiNKRIZE Turning Russian, its a coupe turn into a switch straddle leap

[jevans96]

:50 Is a jete entournant

[vivalavicc]

what is the jump called at 50 seconds and also turn at 1;30 called?!?!? thanks



[AnyaMercedes]

@vivalavicc the jump is just a center leap out of a chaine, and the turn is called and axel.

[idancetolive426]

What was with the clown girl at the end?? Lol!

[hellofascination0x]

Good leaps, I'd say you just need to control your arms and try not to throw them up when leaping because this aids your jump. You should show that you can give the same quality of jump without having any help from your arms :)

[lilly2000layla]

@hellofascination0x and they need to stretch their knees and feet

[Bee06x]

@hellofascination0x if that is how they have been asked to use their arms why shouldnt they?

[hellofascination0x]

@Bee06x Why would they be asked to throw their arms about aimlessly? Chill out I'm giving them advice to look even better.

[ashleybelieber6]

that girl with a log socks and bangs looks like vanessa hudgens!! :))

[hittytitty123]

It's crazy that the girl in the long socks can jump so high without much plie, not being a hater just wanted to know if anyone else noticed that :) seems like a fun class :)

[shincin]

nice!

[flexgirl2]

nice discus :)



[nicktheflyingcat]

Why so many haters

[HeyItsSavy]

the girl in the long socks is awesome!

[SaySay235]

Aaaaag!!! Sandy, teach me!!!!!!!

[ckay2503]

Hmm. They're good but you can tell that they're new at dancing...

[peaceebby04]

@ckay2503 are you kidding me? they're in advanced tech. ^^^^^^^^^ says so. now...does beginners take advanced tech? uhhherrrrrmmmm i dont think so.

[tkdanceprincess5]

@geerykenneth88

smells like teen spirit

[snickers97idk]

i learned the second and the third in like, two hours....theyre not perfected but still

[metheasian101]

I learned how to do this in a week and a half<3

[gerrykenneth88]

SONG?!?!?!

[katyperry973]

I love fouette turns!!

[missC1231]

The girl with the black eyes SCARED ME BADLY

[ODIEmoomoo]

@missC1231 Holy crap me too! I nearly had a heart attack.

[laughlivelove137]

the girl with the high socks was the best

[8ihopeyoudance]

How do you do the trick at 1:30?

[thesassycynic]

@8ihopeyoudance It's an axle (or axel). If you search Youtube, you can probably find a tutorial to help you. They're not very hard to learn, but they look cool! :)

[8ihopeyoudance]

@thesassycynic thanks:)

[flyinghammy998]

@TheSamBeauty your arms depend on the instructor/choreographer. That's what makes dance unique -__-

[screamoprune]

what song is this?

[cinderellagirls94]

@screamoprune smells like teen spirit by nirvana. but it isnt the normal version :)

[screamoprune]

@cinderellagirls94 Thanks!(:

[tsouza0963]

What is the last one called?

[Stretchynick]

The girl in the white socks is really good!

[BittersweetCG]

Hey what's the second leap called?!?

[XxPunkerchik16xX]

@BittersweetCG switch leap i tink not sure

[xchiaroscura]

@BittersweetCG It is definitely a surprise leap.

[MangaFan29]

What was the thing where they like turn on the floor at 1:07 called?

[XxPunkerchik16xX]

@MangaFan29 calypso

[XxPunkerchik16xX]

@MangaFan29 calypso i think

[ThePrototype288]

EYE POLLUTION !!!! TERRIBLE TECHNIQUE !!!!! ARMS I AM SHOUTING ARMS!!! :-(

[AEdancer0123]

ARMSS AND FEET

[feelthebeat321]

arms, arms, arms!

& dont let your legs 'dip' on the italians!

[feelthebeat321]

arms, arms, arms!

[nickjonashottness]

second turns you need to open up at the same time, and the turning disc's you need to work on peaking together

[CALIbabyFOREVER]

I thought the arms looked fine lol...

[addict4dramitics]

These arms are so sloppy...it looks like the dance 1 classes at my high school.... New title; Leaps For Beginers

[leaperforlife]

Song wad distracting :(

[Shannon99ily]

EVEN I CAN DO THAT!

[isaah1307]

where can i find this song ?

[isaah1307]

I liked the nirvana remix

[tripplethreat1]

some  cool jumpss. ..... work on armssssssssssssssssssssssss

[livetodance54]

2:00 ROFL

[TheSamBeauty]

Arm's in a Jete are in fourth ladies -__-

[SoForevrrCheer]

one w/ high socks is the best !

[juicycouturestar11]

Hey girls commenting to you know/have any good videos for a leap??

[idontwantyourdrugs]

lmfao @ the end where the girl pops outta nowhere xD

[youloveme369]

the girl with the high socks, props

[MrJordanBridge]

I don't understand your concept in throwing your arms up into place high or side middle when you should be using opposition arms in most of your leaps :/, legs a fab but arms need loads of work

[xoxmaddy100]

terrible arms :/

[playahata0]

ARMS! :( But good job!



[playahata0]

ARMS! :(

[joyba666]

Great work girls. Which nirvana remix did you use? its great

[iRideiHorse]

what with the arms?

ugly..

[flexibletogether]

Sort out your arms, seriously.

[FilipinaRocker07]

@peacextotheworldx oh cus i searched jete and i just got well, a jete :P this is kinda different cus it kinda starts on a pied, a coupe' then a jete. but its different from a normal jete though.. thanks :)

[FilipinaRocker07]

what do you call the jump the did on 0:52?? please reply

[peacextotheworldx]

@FilipinaRocker07 i think its either a jete or a tilt

[PMBgeek777]

@FilipinaRocker07 chaines center leap

[nicklazzarinirocks]

shoulders down, and lengthen the arms even when you are in the air gals. They look way too stiff and short.

[kaiiiiiitxO]

That person at the end scared the shit out of me...

OH, and don't whip your arms out when you leap!!

[MissCheerFreaklol]

whatever haters! thought it was pretty good im gonna start practing all of those!. Girl at the end thought it was funny :)

[marisole771]

Ummmmm..............these are students, I think they are doing fine for students. But the girl at the end was unecessary. 

[tdcdancer4ever5678]

@marisole771 agreed!

[LadySov109]

@marisole771 srsly? just let them have fun... dance is stressing, especially my teacher (who honestly, she is an angel, but you gotta work hard)...

[ndkate20]

What the hell was with the end?!

[Ms06Dancer]

wtf was tht at the end?! :S

[LikeNobodysWatching2]

Not bad turns but the russian jumps (or second jumps whatever you prefer to call them) were very bad. They need to turn their hips out and extend through their ankles!

[delligattidancer12]

you guys have serious skill, dont get me wrong

but you need to really work your technique

make sure you point your feet and watch your arms

[TheBaylee2996]

oh my gosh this is to all the people who said anything negative about this video!! that was awesome! i can't even do my jumps and turns that well! you guys were great so keep it up!

[GurlyDancer101]

how do you do the leap 00:19-00:21?

[yaymeIamanut]

@GurlyDancer101 i personally hate the prep that they do, but when i do them i just run left, right, left, (and still on the left leg) turn (as in change directions before you take off) and then jump off of your left leg and land on your front foot. you can keep it going too once you get the hang of it. its kind of confusing, sorry bout that.

[katerinakiziri]

that suckssss.....omg..

[jasdancer20]

POINT YOUR TOES!! >.<

[KidmadeProductions]

BACK LEGS PEOPLE! But this is really good (;

[candmhere101]

They all bent thire knees on the leaps except fir the girl warring red shorts

You guys should be wearing leotards and tight what u guys are wearing isn't professional at all

[sprylittlething]

1:20 the blonde girl on the right, very nice and clean in the pirouettes but the ending looked a bit ungraceful!

[breelovesDVBV]

you guys are amazing! where is this studio at?

[bollywoodmania12]

remeber the arms, Try not to make the jump looked forced it needs to look effortless

[randomness0410]

Wasn't very original. They did the same thing over and over again. I've seen a lot better
