 the male dancer

Andra Corvino used to make us march, too. Four steps en face, thenturn 90 degrees on each step afterward. Surprisingly tricky forsuch a simple exercise. I recommend practising pirouettes from 5th. Reason: those arehardest. (From 4th is easiest.) After that, pirouettes from anyother position will be easy compared to 5th. But then, you'rereading advice from one of the worst turners in the world, so maybeyou should just forget I said anything.... :-) Tom Parsons Answers to this message: |
