Mastering Turnout: Science, Myths & Proven Techniques for Every Dancer
Unlock your true potential with expert knowledge and targeted exercises designed to enhance your turnout safely and effectively.
Courses will be running in Kwazulu-Natal, Johannesburg and Cape Town.
Is This Course for You?
Do you feel like no matter how hard you try, your turnout disappears in the center, you lose control of your supporting leg, or you’re constantly battling to maintain balance?
If so, your turnout and core stabilizers might be failing you, not because you’re not working hard enough, but because squeezing your glutes harder isn’t the answer!
Join me on this journey to uncover what’s holding you back, how you can improve, and how to unlock your natural turnout for better control and fluidity in your dancing.
