It’s my belief that all people of all ages can learn, further and excel in technical dance.
I trained at the Royal Ballet School and worked professionally for 15 years and even though I have been teaching for 13 years I very much consider myself a student of dance and I’m really excited to show you all how thorough practice, perseverance and a little science, you can achieve a whole new level of technique & execution.
These tips are what have helped me and all of my students over the years achieve feats of technical excellence in mastering classical ballet technique.

It’s unreal his understanding of applied body mechanics and how he respects ballet dancers as the athlete/artists they are. I love the non-daintiness. Also, how much better would students do if we knew what we were actually trying to do broken down this way. It makes SO MUCH MORE SENSE

[@lorna7715]

These are the best tutorials I’ve come across wow 😮 so clear instructions no confusing like some videos absolutely brilliant thank so you

[@ballet07]

These videos have helped me so much with ballet and my technique thank you!!!

[@howlyballet7744]

Thank you so much. There are new videos dropping very soon 👍

[@bryantaylor1572]

The stretch-shortening cycle is happening, but it has nothing to do with the steps so much as loading the connective tissues and elastic components of the muscle-tendon unit to enhance the amount of force beyond what the contractile elements can produce. The SSC is simply spring-loading the muscles. So a good, fast plie uses the SSC to increase jump height, for example. Great vid(s) all in all!

[@howlyballet7744]

Love this comment 👍 I use the run up (steps before) to increase acceleration before using SSC, but as you rightly said that comes from the plié to increase height. Many thanks 🙏

Thanks dude

[@michaelcarl5130]

Will you do one on the pique manege?

These videos are so helpful! Could we get a video on double tours! 😅

It’s now officially on my list! 👍

Is jete entournant the same as tour jete? Seems like two terms for the same movement

[@kerrywallis4456]

Win Please for my daughter Maddison she loves your classes at scholars 😊😊😊😊

[@michaelcarl5130]

What’s the best way to teach this to 4th grade (9 year-olds) students?

[@howlyballet7744]

For me it’s always best to start at the barre & build a strong and repetitive Grand Jete exercise. (Like shown in the video) This provides a foundation to develop strength and the necessary coordination. I used one yesterday and within 30 mins I saw a massive difference to my new students. 👍👍

[@michaelcarl5130]

@@howlyballet7744 Thank you. My kids like watching your videos. I wish you could come to my school and give lessons. :)

[@michaelcarl5130]

I hope you’re doing more videos. How about one on the Pas de Bouree and one on the Pique Manege?

[@howlyballet7744]

@@michaelcarl5130 just filmed my next video about En Dedans Pirouettes and should be dropping soon. I’ll definitely put those suggestions into my think tank 👍

[@user-xk8dv1sv5s]

@@howlyballet7744 is it with passe on ,turn in or on turn out?

[@howlyballet7744]

@@user-xk8dv1sv5s always turned out. This activates more muscles to control the movement 👍

@@user-xk8dv1sv5s Turn out is essential in ballet and applies to all moves.

[@jmacdance5678]

Uh what. Mispronunciation of degage, then calls a tendu a degage (girls at the barre)

[@antonellapistone]

That is not Grand jeté en tournant. Entrelacé!

[@marycrawley3828]

Except these are entrelacées...

[@howlyballet7744]

Whilst I agree with you as I was trained in Vaganova, many different dance associations all recognise this movement as a ‘’Grand Jete En Tournant’ so I’m keeping the language as simple as possible.

[@marinaS8756]

It's not degage! It's battement tendu at the beginning by the bar! Terrible arms and hands positions, ladies. And tuck your butts under, will you!
