Collab With 'Lover of Dance' Blog

Hiya people;)


K, today I am doing a collab with my best friend and owner of 'Lover of Dance' Blog. This is to get us both noticed a bit more, so I will be posting a beauty post on her blog and she will post a dance post on mine. Hope you like❤


Hi viewers! This is Lover of Dance, the link to my blog is at the bottom of the page⬇


My blog today will be 'How to do a Pirouette'. Lots of my friends have been begging me to post this because it is useful to have tips and they can look really good once you have mastered it! Note: This is for a single / double / triple pirouette not a fouette so please do not get mixed up! If you want me to post about fouettes please request in the comments. Anyway...


Tip 1~ keep your toe firmly onto your knee. If it is wobbling around all over you will find it so hard to keep your balance and it will look messy too.


Tip 2 ~ Keep your body straight and have good posture like you would do normally. This is so important for keeping your balance and staying upright.


Tip 3 ~ If you are attempting multiple pirouettes, bring your arms further around the opposite side of your body before you start to get more momentum.


Tip 4 ~ Always prepare fist. Degage your leg to the front, side, back and pirouette or to the front and ronds de jambe the leg to the back. This helps with speed and momentum.


Tip 5 ~ Pull up your body. Try and touch the ceiling with your head, this will help your body stay in line and slow you down so you don't go crazy.


Tip 6 ~ Spot with your head. Focus on a spot on the wall in front of you, and keep your eyes on that spot until you no longer can and whip your head around really quickly to find that spot again. Practise this step turning on flat. This stops you from getting dizzy, and having more control.


So that is it for now, please check out my blog at http://lover-of-dance.blogspot.co.uk/
hope you liked!!!


Lots of Love, Lover of Dance / Lover of Life x
