Omg, thank you so much! I just started taking adult ballet lessons for the first time in my life and we are learning this step. I was so confused with the turn! You explained this step so well and it helped you faced the back of the camera. It finally clicked! Yay! 🤗
This is the best! I always get confused with left and right and following from the rearview with simple and clear instruction is so very much helpful. I'm figuring this out because of this video. 🙏🥰🙏🥰🙏
Fabulously explained to cope with the confusion an adult brain has with this. The adult brain learns differently and keeps presenting itself with doubts and questions. It took me ages to grasp this a few years ago and I kept googling for videos to demonstrate, I wish you had been around then, you explained everything so clearly. Thank you. 😀
Judith McMinn I’m so glad you figured it out!! It’s such a tricky step in the beginning. Keep us posted if you have any other steps you’d like to be broken down - we love video requests!
@@natalie8457 Wonderful! All of the videos on pirouettes we have are rounded up here: www.brocheballet.com/blog-1/2020/3/24/pirouettes Plus, we have this video all about balancing! czcams.com/video/FckkTXD9z9o/video.html Give those a try and let us know about any lingering questions! :)
Thanks! The updated waltz turn video with the view shot from behind is great. czcams.com/video/BZNaVdwdKFI/video.html Given that it’s a waltz step, where the musicality calls for a [STRONG-weak-weak] pattern of emphasis, I found it easier to learn to feel the groove (and thus move in accorDANCE with the pulses of the rhythm) using Counts: “and_a ONE two three and_a FOUR five six; and_a...” vs [Step-brush Step Step] where - count three is an Inward Pivoting Half Turn-while-Stepping - count four is a brush backward - counts five and six are Outward Pivoting Quarter Turns-while-Stepping, or count five is an Outward Pivoting Half Turn-while-Stepping and count four is a forward step
It is definitely a tricky step! Around 5 minutes in, I do switch to film from the back view so you can follow along from behind me like you would in class!
Finally got it!!! You are an amazing teacher!!! Thank you!!!
Thank u for breaking it down !
This is the most helpful tutorial that worked clearly for me! Thank you for the great tips! 😍
I'm so glad to hear it! Happy dancing! :)
Thanks Julie for the clear and slow repetitive instructions. Greatly appreciated.
Yolanda Li you’re welcome! So glad you enjoyed it! :)
Amazing! I showed this to my teacher and she says you have very good content. Thank you.
I don't think there anything out there more thorough than this on the waltz turn-excellent tutorial!
David G awesome, so glad to hear you enjoyed it!!

So happy to help - sometimes a different view is all it takes to help something click! Keep up the great work! Happy dancing ♥️

Broche Ballet I would love a video on balancing in pirouettes/retire

Given that it’s a waltz step, where the musicality calls for a [STRONG-weak-weak] pattern of emphasis, I found it easier to learn to feel the groove (and thus move in accorDANCE with the pulses of the rhythm) using Counts:
“and_a ONE two three and_a FOUR five six; and_a...” vs [Step-brush Step Step]
where
- count three is an Inward Pivoting Half Turn-while-Stepping
- count four is a brush backward
- counts five and six are Outward Pivoting Quarter Turns-while-Stepping, or
count five is an Outward Pivoting Half Turn-while-Stepping and count four is a forward step
0:46 for myself
Жаль нет перевода. Аналогичного урока на русскои не нашла.
I wish I'd found this months ago!
We're so glad it was helpful! :)
this is hard i wish it was mirrored! :(
