Omg where is that gorgeous leotard from!!

Thank you! It’s a BodyWrappers leotard from about 5 years ago. 🙏🩰✨

[@erikaglenn2844]

Just clarifying when you talk about the "to the side" tendu going slightly in front. Is it supposed to follow the direction your toes are pointing when standing turned out?

[@everydayballet]

Excellent question! Yes, slide the leg in the direction of the toes (as opposed to taking it directly in line with the ear). Tendu side will be different for each person depending on their proper turnout alignment. :-D

[@isaacanderson971]

Do you think this can benefit wide receivers who play football at a competitive level ?

[@everydayballet]

Absolutely! (See my previous response :-D)
