How To Do A La Seconde Turns and Floats- Beginner Tutorial With Miss Auti

All June Patreon proceeds will be donated to the memorial funds of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor.

Today we are working on a la seconde turns and float turns! This simple tutorial is perfect for those of you wanting to practice your dance turns. A la secondes are fun turn tricks that require lots of core strength, spotting, correct posture/alignment, and so. much. more. I love bringing you dance turn technique tips because learning how to do a la seconde turns can be really tricky and we could all use a little bit of help! xo

She said “don’t kick your table or your cat” I instantly clicked “LIKE”.

I thought this would never happen, I've been trying to do these for months then i come to this video, followed the steps she said the best i could AND I FREAKING DID ONE! obviously it wasn't perfect but it's progress. I'm so happy right now!

💖Tip:

The slap prep helps to get momentum. A regular jazz or ballet prep was harder for me to get enough momentum to keep spinning around and around.

I’ve been trying to be able to do an a la seconde for so long and I’m so glad I can watch your videos and learn in depth of everything I need to focus on when doing that turn.

I am also a dance teacher and I love watching your videos for inspo, and I have to say that I respect you so much for using your own body for demonstration instead of a student’s. Because of Covid I’ve had to film several tutorial type videos for my students and filming/editing myself dancing can be a bit emotionally traumatizing 😂. You have so much grace and confidence! Huge shout out to you friend!

Lol when she said dont kick your table or your cat, my cat meowed 😂

I just joined a new team after not dancing for about 2 years and they’re all good and having really good seconde turns, so now I’m over here trying to learn so I can fit in 😭

I've just turned 15 and have always had a passion for dance but never took it on but all of a sudden I have this urge to dance but the problem is I'm not flexible and I haven't got a dance teacher but I really want to become flexible to be able to do dances like contemporary and Lyrical e.t.c do you have any advice ?

[audreysluss]

Definitely boosted my skills and confidence you are so motivational 😊
