How do you do a fouette?

Answer 1

Prepping

When prepping to do a fouette you will be in a slight lounge position. You will have your left leg in front bent and your right behind you bent. You should be in a position were your right knee is almost touching the ground but is not. Then your left arm goes straight out to the left and your hands must be stiff but elegant. (tip" tuck in your thumb.) your right arm will be as if its holding a beach ball. curved with barbie doll hands.

Turning

When you are turning you will use the foot in front and go on your toe NOT YOUR HEEL and turn bringing both hands in as if you are holding a beach ball and wont let it go. Now as you are turning you will have to bend to get more momentum to keep turning. So when you foot you are turning on do not bend low, bend slightly. As you bend your feet will go from a poss'e to a straight out pencil leg. you will dip and your arms will go straight out and your legs will come to your side (tip: FEET POINTED) Then you will exit from dip and resume to a poss'e and your arms will return to beach ball position. repeat this as many times as you would like.

Spotting

While doing your turn you must spot to stay straight and to prevent dizziness or falling. You find a high object and watch it with full eye contact until you cant anymore.
