@SammiaMei Developper has a lot of translations. If you were so fluent, you would know that "Developpe" is used incorrect and you have to use another conjugation ... Just saying :) Btw: I'm from Belgium, French is our mother tongue.

She can't even make a full fifth position. She said it herself heel touching toes, her heel does NOT touch her toes. And she really can't hold that developpe. It would have been better if she made it lower, that way it would at least be correct. They should have at least found a suitable substitute for the barre instead of that cloth covered thing. Had it been done with the use of a barre the tutorial would be better...

No offence to runs this sight. But when making tutorial, i have a few things to say. They need to be longer. And explain what to do!!! And also, with every tutorial THEY NEVER HELP!!!
