| Pencil turn: Turning in place on ONE foot while the other foot stays pressed close to the turning foot in 1st position, but does not touch the floor (Pencil turn is also called a Platform turn). |
| Pirouette turn: Turning at least one full turn in place on ONE foot with the other foot in a raised position |
| Chainé turns: Turns that are linked together; chain. A closing of the feet to an opening of the feet. Turn ¼ R stepping fw on R foot (in extended 3rd position), turn ¾ R on R bringing L next to R during turn (shifting weight to L). You are now in 1st position. Repeat chainé turn. |
| Pivot turn: The pivot turn is a progressive turn that effects half of a rotation with each step. These can be chained together to produce a series of half turns. In the pivot turn, the feet stay oriented in extended third dance position. While turning in this fashion, the thighs should stay close together in a scissors-like fashion. It?s important to avoid spreading your legs to a wide second position during the turns. |
