Dance Turns
Dance Turns - Fouette,Ballet Turns
There are many different types of turns used in dance. We show you 5 of them in this video. For a detailed lesson on pirouette turns, watch our ‘Learn how to do a Pirouette’ video.
In this video, we show you the different dance turns including foettes, ballet turns, pumps, leg grab turn, chaines, piques and various other dance turns. Dance turns are used often in many different styles of dance including ballet dancing, jazz, hip hop, modern, lyrical and other dance styles.
Turns are part of the basics dancers need to master as part of their "dance step toolkit". These turns are often put into stage performances so practising them will help get them spot on every time. Then you can increase your skills and add the number of rotations or combine the turns with other dance steps.
