I always get that "dip" when I reach second position. I'm guessing that's when a differeent set of muscles takes over that may not be as strong.
Yes I would suggest working at a lower height and working on that seamless transition pulling the leg out and around. From there as you strengthen the right muscles it will naturally get higher over time!
Amazing teacher ❤
Thank you love!
Thank you
Glad it helped!
Thank you for that video.
What I find hard to understand is how to properly turnout the foot in second position. I might not sound very clear because I am still trying to understand what exactly I might not be doing correctly and I just guess it has to do something with when my leg is in second position. If you could give me some tips about that I would be so very greatful.
Yes, I am not exactly sure what you are asking. It would be helpful if I could work with you in person, sometimes it helps a student if I physically take their leg and rotate it so they can feel what they are aiming. Basically, in second position with your leg to the side, you are trying to rotate the leg in the hip socket so that the bottom of your shoe is facing the audience. The range of motion here varies greatly from person to person but you just want to strive for that feeling of external rotation from the hip socket. I hope this helps some, feel free to ask more questions if I can help more I am happy to!

I am so very greatful for your answer.
Believe me if I have the opportunity I would be more than happy to take some of your classes :).
Thank you for letting me ask you more questions, it really means a lot to me! I guess I need to process the information you just gave me and work with it for a while and maybe later I will have more questions about the leg in second position but in the meantime could you please tell me or make a video, whatever is more comfortable for you, about retiré (because some people say the leg is supposed to be over your knee and all of the people on youtube I've watched place the leg under the knee) and attitude(I really don't understand which muscles work there and how even to get there, especially attitude devant because you go through it before you open your leg in développé and I can't do none of it correctly). I hope I am not annoying you with my questions, that's the last thing I want to do.
Have nice day! ❤❤❤
Not at all, I love questions and yes let me me try to make a video response just because I think it would be easiest to show. ❤

Thank you! ❤
I know I'm really late but does anyones hip made an audible click when they bring their leg around the side? It doesnt hurt but I can feel a muscle or tendon move in an odd way and it makes an audible sound. Does this happen to anyone else?
Emily Ramsey yes! This used to happen to me all the time and I learned it is quite common. It can even be referred to as “dancer’s hip”. What really solved it for me is strengthening my inner thighs and deep rotators and foam rolling my quads and flutes. I also went to a chiropractor who was very helpful!
I thought I was the only one. It’s a little bit uncomfortable but maybe that’s just because I cringe every time I hear it! Thank you so much now I know what I can focus on to fix this.
