PSB Ballerina Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 I am just curious at what age does the typical dancer learn how to do fouette turns? Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted November 18, 2011 Administrators Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 It is not a matter of age, it's a matter of level. When you are at a level where your en dehors pirouettes are solid and relatively consistent with at least a double in correct alignment, rotation, use of head and arms, shape of the retiré foot, and able to finish the pirouette still up and controling the position you go to, and you can execute a solid series of relevé turns from 5th. then it should be time to begin to learn the fouetté action.

It was not your mistake, pinkdancer, it was just because the toipic was in the wrong forum. PSB, please place questions about ballet technique in a Young Dancer forum.] Quote Link to comment
