A perfect fouette does not come easily- it take a lot of balance, strength and persistence, but when you are able to finally get them, it makes it more worthwhile. Here are some tips for getting fouettes.
- Practise by holding onto a railing and bringing your non supporting leg from retire to devant whilst in releve to cote and then into retire again.
- Do lots of pirouettes and practice spotting.
- Remember, when doing fouettes, you really need to get a lot of momentum.
- Instead of at first doing full fouettes, try doing half-ones until you get enough momentum to do fulls.
I really hope that these tips helped you to get perfect fouettes.
Don’t practice until you get it right, practice until you can’t get it wrong
