5 TIPS on PIROUETTES from ballerina Maria Khoreva

[@Michaeleism]

I am just starting to dance ballet at 34. My confidence in executing the pirouettes has been low. Your rips have helped me start to put the pieces together. Thanks so much!

[@akeelahyanson]

Thank you so much for this, Maria! Earlier in my ballet class, I was kinda having a hard time to do my turns... and I was frustrated because I barely can finish my pirouette turns, SO- thankyou for the tips! It helps me a lot ❤ Hope you can also give us some tips on Fouttés too. We love you too, Maria!!! Stay Safe 😊❤

[@melaniegill196]

Pirouettes are so complicated. So much to think about! Thanks for these tips! I haven’t thought about my supporting shoulder before. I’m excited to work on that one! Thank you!

[@LyraSvalbard]

Would love to see a video on fouettes (tips for beginners maybe)!

[@krasskey]

[@marcelacorrea4947]

I love your tips María. I would love more tips to improve in ballet. And more ballet centre classes!! Workouts are fine but cannot say there are not plenty of them out in KZbin. Great ballet classes like yours are much needed!!!

[@zynpkrcan]

THANK U MARIA!!🥺💟

[@mari_sabinov]

Maybe now I can do more than 2 pirouettes without fear!! much love and admiration from Brazil

[@和泉裕文-p4y]

Thank you for your nice advice and valuable information on the pirouette. I was touched by your passion and kindness.

[@sharonreeve7509]

Thank you Maria! Pirouettes are so difficult for me!

[@skyflower1320]

You are enchanting, intelligent and kind. Sending love my beautiful ballerina mentor 🎐

[@normamimosa5991]

Love your tip series.

[@AyaaAcademia]

Tip #3 is so so so so important!

[@nicholasfantauzzi4589]

Hello Maria. I've got an amazing idea for you. You could write a book about your experience at Vaganova Academy. You could put in the book like: Some curiosities and informations about the Academy, considerations and reflections, tales or things happened the in the school when you were there, or also maybe fun facts and just your experience written by a graduate

[@КонстантинКубань-й1о]

All the books about ballet have been written for a long time and are waiting for their readers.

[@paulineiv878]

Can you make more workout videos focusing on abs, back, legs and arms?😊You're workouts really worked for me and I do them everyday!!💖

[@nataschacharliecamen]

She made all these workouts several times!!!!

[@paulineiv878]

@@nataschacharliecamen She has I know but fresher and more material is always welcome!!😉

[@WhatashameMaryJane]

I'm not a ballerina but I still watch these videos till the end because they're fascinating. Your fitness videos were great because they pushed me to workout, in fact I still go back to them when I'm motivated enough to exercise. The pilates ones were my favorites. I also watch the snippets of your performances.

[@imanbell]

Thank you Maria, love these tips videos! ❤️ I would love a tips video on posture (flat black, long neck, etc.) and how to achieve the "ballerina look" in the upper body. Lots of love!

[@theempress1104]

All tips really work for me especially tip #2 because like you said my teacher points out that my shoulder goes all over making me lose control thank you!!❤

[@marjaharmanmaa529]

Thanks, Maria! Very useful as always! All the technical tips are most welcome 🙏 🙂 ❤

[@karenlindley.9756]

Could you also do pirouettes en dedans too? I find these much harder than the en dehor. X

[@helenausten2885]

Thanks María. Saludos desde Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, México

[@mariannestoffers5067]

I remember with my first preparations come with the incoming shoulders under fourth Position. The funny thing in the beginning was that I was not allowed (during pirouettes) to lift my passe was lifted than around the knee. I love you.

[@kristynablahova4694]

Thank you so much for your tips! 😍❤️

[@rebekakunilo9135]

Thank you so much for this video :D! Can you please do tips for pirouettes from fifth position? It would help me a lot

Would you recommend the same tips for pirouettes on pointe? Thanks! So helpful! ✨❤️

[@senemyurdakul3115]

Can you make a video about strengthening your ankles please!!! I feel so lucky to be able to get these tips from a ballerina like you!

[@fayroztayll8867]

Thank you ❤we need Fouettée on point

[@sapereaude2572]

I wanted to ask you how do you deal with the “recurvatum” in your knees and those beautiful and powerful feet at the time to “close the pirouette” ...especially when u need to be precise on stage. Do your (beautiful) lines challenge the precision? Thank you so much for reading this. It’s just so interesting for me to know about these things. Have a beautiful day🧡

[@elisevitek4194]

Can you do a daily stretching routine? Thank you so much, your videos are awesome!

[@parniasworld]

Wow thank you

[@nataliacwik8539]

Your Tips videos really help me, I would love to watch a tip video about grand pirouettes

[@brennadowney927]

Thanks for this helpful video! One good tip for pirouettes that helps me is keeping my head in line with my shoulders. Sometimes my head goes too far forward and throws me off, especially when I'm turning on pointe. Please make a tips video for turns on pointe!

[@kevinstreitwieser882]

Thank you

[@laurasiccherino8789]

Pleaseeee share your tips about fouettés! 🙏🏼🥺

[@art1938]

It is very useful video

[@thaisfernandes8633]

Thank you! do you have any tip on feet exercices?

[@julianomuertas2023]

Ahh I'm having such a bad time with pirouettes now 😩 but this tips are really helping, thank you so much 💜

[@PRANCERETTE]

Thank you for these great pirouette tips. Could you give us some tips on how to do a “gargouillade” correctly? 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@daeniju9595]

I really love your workouts and tips! Could you maybe do a video on your everyday diet and nutrition?

[@gabymarmori2704]

Amazing

[@momodustychinchilla868]

Please do a video on pirouettes on pointe 🙏🏻

[@olivia-fy2vf]

Would love to see more videos in russian/english. I think I might be learning a new language thanks to you 🤓 Thanks for this video! It was very useful 🤩🤩

[@kristinskein7934]

Please give tips on fouettés on pointe 💗

[@inamoller9370]

Hey Maria... I love your videos and the Tipps so much... THANKS SO LOT.... Mayby you can make a stretching video with the Terra band, also for the higher develope a la second... PLEASE 🙏

[@cachouloulou1451]

Tank you ! Your tips help me so much. Can you do a 5 tips on rond de jambes ?

[@mialee6876]

love you too！

[@umaclark2449]

this is great, going to work on this at home, and class, i really enjoyed barre class you did, really has helped me in class! Improving flexibility, arabesque, attitudes and turns and soft beautiful arms and port de bra is what I'm working on, anything you do helps, tips, and classes etc. xoxoxo

[@elsaj5979]

I have just done your 5 tips on pirouettes and found all your technical explanations and own experience comments GENIAL👌👌👌... applying the shoulder tip supporting the standing leg has stopped me straight away to over rotate while doing the pirouette and I can concentrate on the other very helpful tips👌🙏.... I have 2 further questions should they be relevant to other followers too: 1) the head position : where to look to and how many angles while turning (I tend to be dizzy after a while 😅)? 2) the number of turns : what is the trigger to keep on turning and can u control the number of turns u want to achieve (not that I am doing many right now😂)? 🙏💙♥️🙏💙♥️🙏💙♥️ have a good sunny weekend 🧡💛💚 from London😍😍😍

[@megnolia9234]

I know its simple but making sure im spotting the same place and not changing it. I always forget to do this- and as soon as I think about it I have no issue doing three/ consistent turns .

[@audreyboyd6758]

Thank you so much! These tips are really helpful. Maybe you could make 9-minute workout for feet flexibility/strength? I do your workout and stretch videos everyday and have found them really helpful!

[@talithamac]

Although our pirouettes are very different in Baroque Dance, this is interesting and I will see how much of it can be incorporated in my next practice.

[@НатальяСвищева-м2ш]

Мария, сниними, пожалуйта, видео про прыжки в классическом танце, очень буду ждать, выпуск 💥👍

[@nicematisse]

Very nice Maria! For me, I would add, when in position for pirouettes always keep your hips forward. This helps with balance and getting into/maintaining correct position for pirouette ( any kind ). Also, don't forget to spot the pirouettes! I find that if you use slightly less force and focus more on spotting you can execute five or six turns - easy! :) Lots of Love!

[@lilttlekevin89]

A slowed down video of your town with all the points could be helpful!

[@chilanya]

you're so wonderful.. i love this video! please help with en dedans turns? my teacher likes to do them in many positions. I have especially trouble with the tour devant because i cannot keep my standing leg turned out - standing leg is all i think about and still it does not lead the turns, but it follows the turn. how do I change that?

[@Вероника-157]

Какой прекрасный английский у Марии 😮

[@ЮлианаТылина]

Recovery workout, workout for day off, morning(pyjama) workout.

[@nataschacharliecamen]

I think it would be nice from you to make more ballet classes, if possible barre and later center. Some real Vaganova typical training....its juste for some ideas!!??

[@nataschacharliecamen]

She had her education in this outstanding academy......

[@marthashackelford6931]

What about spotting?

[@Elenakkk1]

Also our teacher has taught us to go through first position before the passe, it is like cheating, doing basically a half turn:))

[@adrianavioquemoragues301]

Hi, I have a question. My teachers say me to stay on my supporting leg, but, when I do it, one side of the hip goes up and the other side of the hip down😅.

[@sky-lo8te]

hi! your teachers probably tell you that because it's a common mistake to focus on the passé leg instead of the supporting one. if you do that, your pelvis won't be balanced and the hip of the passé leg will go higher than the hip of the supporting one, and you'll lose your balance. that's why it's important to remember to push your supporting leg against the floor and keep it extended and turned out. however, this doesn't mean you have to tilt your hips towards that side, because that means your pelvis will not be balanced. think of it like this: when doing a pirouette, your supporting leg is the axis around which you'll rotate, so it needs to be strong and aligned with your center of gravity in order to spin and keep your balance. if this pillar is wobbly, the pirouette will likely be messy and less stable. but building a strong pillar is meaningless if you don't put any weight on it: that's why you need to slightly shift your center of gravity (but NOT tilt your pelvis) onto the supporting leg so that all your weight falls into it instead of being distributed between both sides. to sum up, it's important to put your weight on your supporting leg and keep it strong, but you need to shift your whole axis: if your hips are not balanced, it means you're bending that axis instead and you'll lose your balance! hope this helps, and please remember to take it easy and be patient to yourself💙 happy dancing!

You know what? Why don't you make a video of your skincare and makeup routine as a ballerina? It would be interesting to put it here in your channel
