  • i was told not to twist my body on the waist before i do any turn. She twists her body in this vid, though.. when can we twist our body before we do turns?

  • There are a lot of different methods for turns, some of which work better than others. It depends on who is teaching which technique. But perhaps you were overdoing it and that prompted the specific correction for you--maybe it wasn't intended to make you not do it at all, just a bit less.

  • When and where was that shot?

  • Don't know, was wondering that myself!

  • Lefty!

  • @eloisefig It is here: Katherine Healy Interview Ballet Pirouette Technique, Fouettes, Jumps & Corsaire Part 3. That user has other interview excerpts posted of her and some of her coaching a student.

  • @ScientificoPiano Is that on youtube? any hints on search words for that?

  • @Livdances2538 that was don q fouettes and I JUST heard them today in class, haha, after last hearing it when I performed my first ever DonQ in March! ahh!

  • Fabulous!

  • Fouettes were the one thing I could NOT seem to do (even on flat) when I was an intense dancer in my teens, arrrgggh! Nor grand jetes! :(

  • me too!

  • OMG that is the same exact music i use in class during fouettes

  • She's not twisting her body actually. In an interview, she talks about it. She's stretching the front arm forward and the back arm back. It looks like it though.

  • wow, this is my dance school!
