Quick Control & Direction Changes

Build pirouette control and quick direction changes in this short traveling combination of turns and a leap. The turns have to be driven by muscle and not by pumping the leg. Stop in your plié, exhale into the core, and let the supporting leg push you up into a double.

Piqués, a chassé tour and a leap travel to the side, upstage and front. Think of it as a circle or a square, so your spot changes immediately.

The leap lands in a back coupé. Lift as you lower for control.
