Thank you so much for this! I’ve been struggling to figure out this movement on my own while pouring over other fan dance videos out there. Seeing the side view of this movement helped a lot! I need to go train my wrists in this movement to do it, but at least I now know what to train! 😊

[@raechrysalis]

Aww amazing!! So happy this has been helpful for you :) This is definitely a tricky one without someone explaining it. If you're looking for more support on your silk fan journey, my online school has tons of in-depth tutorials like this + choreo, drills, improv explorations, and more: www.chrysalissilkstudies.com 💛

[@kimh6216]

I wish you would do this with your back turned. It's easier to copy the movements instead of trying to mirror them.

[@raechrysalis]

In many of the tutorials on my school, I do them facing the back as well! All choreo classes I do facing the back. I will make sure all future tutorials include the back view - thanks for the input :)

wow thank you so much

[@raechrysalis]

Of course 🤍✨

Thanks for the tutorial. What is the length of your fan veils? I have long ones and I'm thinking that the length of mine makes this more difficult to do. I got the hang of it after 30 minutes of drilling, but my hands keep getting bound up in the veils. Thanks!

[@raechrysalis]

Of course! yes, this one (and many technical moves) are more challenging with longer fans. The ones I use in this video are 48" from The Bamboo Closet (@thebamboocloset on IG). I always recommend starting with 45"-55" to start! The extra long ones are gorgeous, but can be a bit limiting, especially when learning.

[@raechrysalis]

I am actually considering adding some tutorials for extra long fans to Level 2 of my silk fan school (coming later this year)! For now, I teach with 48" silks for all the classes on the school.

[@ChildOfAshes1]

There was a lot of loud snapping sounds in the background of this video's audio, It was really hard to pay attention and to listen. Great information though!

[@raechrysalis]

I am in an old building, so the floor is really creaky 😅 Unfortunately, there is not much I can do about the creaks. I'm happy you appreciate the information though! 💛
