How do you improve your turnout? Of course great turnout require strength in your deep turnout muscles, but that’s only part of the puzzle. You also need to be able to control your pelvis, hips and back/core at the same time, so that you can use your full, potential turnout range while your actually dancing!
The exercise in this video builds strength and stability in your core, back and hips, at the same time as requiring you to hold your turnout. This brings together many of the elements needed to allow you to use your turnout while dancing.
I recommend you master the drill in Turnout control, Part 1 first (Find it here). Then, move on to this harder version to fire-up and strengthen your turnout muscles at the same time as improving your active control – so that you can use your turnout when you need it. It’s no use sitting in the frog stretch for hours if you don’t have the strength and control to actually use your turnout range when you’re dancing!
