I have done this everyday for a little over a month and it has helped SO MUCH

Could you tell a difference in your 5th?

@jdutka13 4 года назад

hi! *please* answer my question: did it improve turn-out/rotation in your releve? I REALLY need help with that and want to know if this video helps

@kaitlynshen8798 4 года назад

@@jdutka13 I know I'm not the one you were asking, but I've done these exercises for a while now and it definitely helps in releve! but having the correct foot placement definitely helps with that too!

Exercises start at 6:01 or 7:30 and Stretches at 16:04.

@thefullenergychannel2879 4 года назад

sometimes it's best to listen to what is said in order to understand the exercises it could save you time which you're trying to save by not watching it in the long run

@LinaSingers 4 года назад

The FULL ENERGY CHANNEL The timestamps are for people that are rewatching and have already memorised / implemented the tips 🙃 I've done the video over ten times total and I also skip depending on workouts or barre classes I've done before on the day.

If you’re like me and you repeat this work out a lot (or daily) here’s a handy timestamp: 6:34 is after the intro if you’ve already watched it a few times and just want to start into the exercise and follow along :) Thank you for making these, they’re helping me train up my strength between injuries when I have to take weeks off from class. I’m laser removing a tattoo so I have to take 3 weeks off at a time sometimes because my foot is so injured and can’t point but this work out helps me keep a little turn out so I don’t feel completely exhausted and depleted when I finally go back! ❤️ I’m reconnecting with my love as an adult after some really hard life incidents forced me to walk away from professional dancing in my first year working and now at 21 I’m trying to build up strength to try to dance again after a couple years off intense training and it can feel so intimidating so having exercisss to do at home can be a way to get the foot back in the water so to say 😂

@taylorzhou1289 4 года назад

Two weeks ago, when I first started this exercise, I literally could not find the wrapping feeling. But now I can easily find it!

@giselaballerina6830 4 года назад

Katie: I wouldn’t recommend doing this before class Me : (doing it before class) 👁👄👁

@ameliaford782 3 года назад

my lockdown goal is too get half decent turnout and I’ve been doing this and seeing progress!

@anissahenrichs9945 4 года назад

This helped me learn the difference between tucking and jamming. In my studio our teacher says to tuck our booty under and I was always overdoing it to the point of it not being sustainable, now I’m “tucking” properly. She says tuck to get us to engage our muscles not jam

@Poppy- 5 лет назад

Your explanations are so thorough. What you said about the turnout, my 1st teacher said: heart shape buttock and "spiraling" the muscles, but your explanation is more accurate. NO JAMMING. This is a perfect complement between classes.

@kathryn_morgan 5 лет назад

Thank you!

@laneycheyne5862 4 года назад

I’ve been doing this for 5 days straight now and I’m feeling much stronger

@eddie1975utube 2 года назад

I’m a karate black belt and have been on an almost decade long journey towards greater flexibility, mobility and form. I’ve always felt like dancers knew something we don’t. I think these will help me tremendously so thank you!

@kaykomckayface1097 5 лет назад

I just left comments on some videos about turnout lol. Thank you Katie for being honest about not being born with a flat turnout. You gave me hope girl!! Love you! !

@kathryn_morgan 5 лет назад

Of course! Definitely not a natural turnout girl haha

@rekahunyadi8420 4 года назад

you gave me hope too🙃 i dont have either and i feel really bad about it that it is the only thing why i cant be a ballerina but seeing you being comfortable about it and knowing that you are a soloist really makes me less alone and gives me hope that maybe my i can make success

@laurels495 5 лет назад

Thank you for all the great exercises! As someone who tore an ACL after years of forcing turnout...I want to say yes, yes, yes to using the correct muscles and working with good placement.

@danimolusco Год назад

I'm not a dancer but I'm hypermobile and have been having trouble with glute weakness and unstable hips, and this helped so much, especially the exercise before the rond de jambe, i hadn't felt that kind of activation from any other exercises

@PrismCasillica 4 года назад

I was thinking of doing barre and found this on accident. And it's a good thing I found this! I thought you had to jam your feet together. Thanks for saving my knees. ❤

@G_Alli Год назад

I’ve done this exact video for a few week and my improvement has gotten so much better it’s insane.

This is perfect timing, I have been needing these exercises so much, my right so is ok but my left doesn't have as good of turnout!

@kathryn_morgan 5 лет назад

Great! Hope this video helps you!

@lizziethompson4131 3 года назад

THANK YOU!!! I went to a ballet studio for many years that valued flexibility far over strength, my turnout was horrid for years and years and I didn’t find out until looking it up to find out why I couldn’t hold myself in a position for too long. I have done this among other exercises for a few weeks and it’s already doing wonders. Thank you Kathryn Morgan, I swear you are a turnout goddess

@jacquelineclair-horn6513 3 года назад

Thank you for the great tips and turnout exercises. I am over 50 yrs old and started ballet classes at the age of 42. I've always enjoyed dancing and I love the challenge and grace of ballet.

@starmelodyelizabethb7380 5 лет назад

This really saved me a lot cause I have been struggling with my turnout especially in my 5th position. But I do agree that it is best to use your natural body strength without force .I don't know if it's possible or not but will there be a Barre class or centre class for artistry ?

@madeline2282 5 лет назад

i think her barre for arms and back would be a good one to work on artistry since it has the most complicated port de bras. if you do the trick (i think i actually got this from katie as well) of pretending to be a character taking barre, that's another way to incorporate artistry. I pretend I'm the different dancers of Dance Academy when I get bored lol, and I try to imitate their dancing style (kat, tara, abigail, etc)

@kathryn_morgan 5 лет назад

Ooh thank you for that idea. I will work on it! But Madeline's suggestions are great too!

@alanblazek1653 5 лет назад

Try Mary Davis s book, floor Barre.

@KiraHelenRose 5 лет назад

When you said don't ever let anyone step on you for a better stretch, I totally understood that. When I was a kid (and not even yet a dancer) I was once stretching in butterfly and I asked my sister to slowly and gently press my knees down for me. She thought it would be hilarious to suddenly and unexpectedly jam my knees down to the floor for a laugh. It was horrifically painful. Luckily I didn't get injured.

@slcubr4847 4 года назад

You are a genius at explaining the correct sensation. I've gained so much from listening to you. ❤️

@doriscunningham9930 4 года назад

Just started over at 60 years old. What You said about not forcing turnout but work with the turnout we have is the most useful and likely the most important advice to keep in mind. I believe it is the key to progress. Much love and many thanks

@gina1569 4 года назад

I've been learning ice skating for the past 8 months or so and these exercises to strengthen very specific muscles for turnout, and the tips for arabesque, are so helpful. I love your workout videos for that focus on building the strength to reach your goal, the balance between strengthening and stretching to build and maintain flexibility. Really glad I found this channel!

Hi Katie, thanks so much for all your videos, I found you during my recovery from a complex tibial plateau fracture from a bike accident and have used your videos and found inspiration during my recovery.

Hi Katie! I'm 11 and I've just started working on my turnout. It is so bad and I can't seem to figure out if I should work more on strengthening the muscles or stretching them out. Thanks for your videos; they have helped me a lot. Bye!😍💖

@lazyblackbean 2 года назад

Omg I have to come here and leave a comment to say thank you!! I have done this for 2 weeks now. Today for the first time ever, I could actually feel my legs properly turning out in ballet class! Omg!!! I started learning ballet a year ago and could never find the proper turn out!! Omg!!!! I was jamming my knees so much to the point I started feeling discomfort. This video is so critical!!

@MsAerosensa 5 лет назад

@kestrelgraser4262 5 лет назад

turnout is what I've always struggled the most with so thank you for this video! I didn't realize I was tucking too much, I was trying to keep a straight bodyline but apparently I was actually overdoing it, so thank you again :D I still have a long way to go but hey any improvement is good for my terrible turnout haha

@suzyanscombe8246 5 лет назад

I had exactly the same problem - trying to get a completely flat back but actually tucking ! Feels so much more free now ❤️

@kstadlerova 3 года назад

I was born with my hips turned in. Like, couldn´t stand in paralell and my parents didn´t want surgery because the doctor said it can be fixed with intense physical therapy. I have always struggled with my turnout as a dancer, right now, I´ve got quite a flexible turnout and I am so grateful for that, but the strenght is obviously a little lacking. Loved this video! Just what I needed to thoroughly work on my turn out in quarantine.

@jessieborrell1856 5 лет назад

Thank you for this, Katie! I have a really hard time with my turnout. I used to be very pigeon-toed for most my life and probably anatomically just don't have good external rotation from my hips. I work really hard to try and strengthen and use what I have and ballet has helped me a ton, even if it's very frustrating to have limited turnout

Wow you make these moves look so easy! :) I'm just starting to learn Irish dance (week 2!) and my turnout is horrible. I went into these exercises and stretches thinking they'd be easy because you do them with such ease, but I could barely get through the full count of each exercise lol. Looks like I have work to do!

@iheartaliciakeys308 4 года назад

Very well explained. Thank you!!

@madeline2282 5 лет назад

Thank you for mentioning the having people step on you in stretches. It really bothers me that there are extremely popular stretching videos on youtube for dancers that advocate having someone stand on you in a butterfly. It's so unsafe! And young dancers who don't know any better are the ones who will see that

@kathryn_morgan 5 лет назад

I HATE THAT. That is one of my biggest issues - I don't want young dancers learning unsafe ideas.

@Balletgirl66 5 лет назад

Οne of my teachers would have us stand on each other, lying down, in butterfly position and in second.

@ardnas994 5 лет назад

This color fits you perfectly! Interesting video as always, keep up the good work! Even though I don't dance ballet I do exercise and I'm extremely flexible and this exercises help me to be stronger so I can be more in control of my hypermobile joints.

@sheelfjohnson 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for these tips! I've seen so many dancers forcing their feet straight to the side while their knees are almost facing forward. And so many teachers don't correct this. I always cringe thinking about their future knee problems. 😳 Also, thanks for demonstrating things by exaggerating the "wrong" position: a. it's kind of funny and b. it's really helpful to clarify what the right position actually is. You're a great teacher! 💙

@naomireineke3151 3 года назад

Love what you said at the beginning, it doesn't just take flexibility but strength too. Wish all my students would believe me when I say that haha. If you can't maintain it it's not real turnout!

I’m glad I found this video.. my turn out sometimes is decent… but today I found my feet slipping out of place due to my hips inability to hold it. I am an archer and a tucker so this really helped me understand what it means to turn out. Also Where did you get your pink leotard… I really need one because my boobs. Thank you.
