Question
how do i make  pirouettes easier


Answer
Hi Chris. I'm going to direct you to http://www.theballetstore.com where I have posted a lot of articles and blog entries, some regarding turns. I spent a lot of time writing them, and I hope they will help you. It would be faster for you just to go there - I think you get a user name and access all the articles and blog entries that way.

I wrote in as much detail as possible - and many of the articles are also about assessing your own postural plumb line, and other technical accuracy, which would also affect your pirouettes.

Do not hesitate to ask if you have any other questions!

All the best, Dianne
