Question: HOw many pirouettes!?!?
How many BALLET (turned out) pirouettes can you do in one turn!?!?-Please tell the truth, don't say 11 or 12 pirouettes unless you really can do it!.

I'm 12, and can only do a triple pirouette, is that pretty good for a 12 yr old!?

Please tell the truth- don't say 11 or 12 unless you really can do it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

HI!.!.ive been dancing for about 9 years and i am pretty good at pirouettes!.!.ive only been in ballet for about 4 years but i can do about 5-6 pirouettes on flat!.!.!.!.!.but on point shoes i can prob only do like 2-3 and i forgot what type or kind of point shoes i have because there at my locker in the studio!.!.but yea if i keep working i will get better and so will you!.!.!.so best wishes!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

A triple is pretty good for a twelve year old, but only say you can do a triple pirouette unless you can land it properly, and not fall all over, because we can all turn a triple not properly!.

I am twelve, I can land a double properly, and I am working on a triple!.

EDIT: If you have been dancing on pointe for a few years, you can turn easier on pointe, so with as much force as you would use on a double on flat, you could get 4 on pointe, so it is easier!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

okay i'm telling you now i'm a horrible turner!!
i'm 14 and i can do a triple on my left and a double and sometimes triple on my right!. on pointe i can do a double on each side!. i have gaynor mindens!.
and triples are really good!. and in the ballet world thats all thats really necessary but try for more anyways!Www@QuestionHome@Com

i've only been dancing for 4 years and i haven't did pointe work, but i can usually land a pretty good triple, but if i'm lucky i can do about 5-7 pirouttesWww@QuestionHome@Com

i can do triple pirouettes!. iv only been in ballet for about 3 years!. Im doing pionte work now!. I have Grishko 2007 they dont really work for me, the vamp is too high for me, so hopefully i get new pointe shoesWww@QuestionHome@Com

i think you being able to do a triple at 12 is really good i'm only 14 and can only do a double on flat and a single on pointe!. i have bloch aspirations!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
