This is the Vaganova Preparation for the 3 Position...Sliding from the 1 to the 3 in plié you do not give to much torsion on the knees!

@Ppendu you have to start young.. most of the students at the vaganova academy did these kind of exercises before attending the academy. if you dont start with turnout when you're little you WILL damage your knees if you when you get older start to turnout (if you don't have a really good, preferably russian, teacher) and sorry for my english!

[Ppendu]

@BallettTanzAkademie Sure, but you shoudn't stretch them afterwards then, that is the bad part of this exercise. And Vaganova starts at 10, and there is a reason for that... Lovely students by the way, be careful with them!

[Ppendu]

@TheDancerina Well, they're too young to use their muscles properly for this much turn out, so they will stick their feet to the floor in plie, and then force their knees and ankles when they stretch. There is a reason the Vaganova academy starts at 10, you need more mature muscles and coordination to pull that off. No matter how much natural ability you have. This exercise is exactly what I tell my students NEVER to do. (I don't have professional level students, so it's different, but still..)

@Ppendu and why should it be bad for their knees?
