From Robbie.

Many dancers struggle with fear of turning or falling out, confidence, inconsistent turns, good turns only on one side, and choking on stage. AGH!

The secret is PRACTICE and a proper foundation. I have seen a lot of pirouettes at competitions that are many, many, many rotations BUT sloppy. You wouldn't really know what sloppy is unless you know the ins and outs of how they actually work and should look. Judges and teachers, and classmates, are watching. Annoying... I know. So much pressure which does not help at all.

The time to work on your pirouettes is right now. Then you can look back in a couple of months and be glad you started when you did. I have over 20 years of dance training and have trained at the top schools in the country with the absolute best teachers (Ellison Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, Colorado Ballet, Master Ballet Academy, and more)! I have placed in the top 3 several times at YAGP and have been invited to participate in International Competitions. I direct and perform in a company I co-founded and I work frequently as a freelance dancer. I also co-host the Ballet Diaries Podcast. So, if you want to raise your game drop your email below and be sure to follow me! I'm fun to work with and I love to mentor dancers of all ages.
