dancetolive Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 during class yesterday a girl popped her knee! the paramedics came to take her to the hospital because they thought that she had done something even further then popping it. they said it was because she did not keep her knee over her toes. is this like forcing your turnout or something???

Mel Johnson Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Yes, without going into great detail, you can injure your knee very seriously in forcing turnout. It's one reason that we are constantly cautioning against it. Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted October 26, 2005 Administrators Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Sounds like the kneecap might have dislocated, and perhaps it went back in. But that is a serious injury, and takes time to recover. It can certainly be caused by turning out the feet more than the hips can support, and the knees then do not track over the toes.
