- Hey everyone!!! 😊
Welcome to DAY 1 of our improving technique challenge, 30 DAYS working together, getting us closer to reaching our full potential! ⭐️💪🏼
Today’s video is dedicated to TURN OUT ! One of the most important parts of our technique as dancers!!
We exercise for 10 minutes but I do spend some time explaining the exercises that’s why the video is a little longer - I hope that’s ok! 😌
So let’s get started! Thank so so much for joining me on this journey!
Please comment below where you are doing this video, what age group you are in, your favourite thing about Irish dance!?!?! 👯♂️👯♂️
Tomorrow we will be targeting TOE HEIGHT, have a chair or wall handy to help with your balance!!
I hope you enjoyed this video, please send me any feedback you have- what can I do to improve these videos?? 😊
As always thank you so so much for joining me and watching, I can’t wait for the journey ahead!! Has anyone got a name for our team of dancers doing this challenge??
Be sure to connect with me over on Instagram @amymaedolan
See you tomorrow x

Hey Amy! My names Jess and i’m 12 turning 13 and i’m currently on pre open, i’ve been dancing for 3 years and during the time i’ve had one leg surgery and two heart surgery’s so i’ve missed out on a lot. I’ve always struggled with turn out and my goal is to go to worlds next year if i can finish pre open. This workout was really helpful and i can already see improvement. So excited for tomorrow’s class x
Hi! My name is Cassie and I’m from New York! I’m a u15 open championship dancer and I’m working towards my goal of placing top 5 at Nationals this year! Thank you so much for this!!
Hey thanks for this. I’m 38 and doing an adult beginners competition in October. Turn out is my nemesis so I have been doing this video a LOT! Xx
Since the comments are pretty much all dancers I'll share my story. I became an official figure skater in January 2023 but I have been figure skating for much longer so I learn quick. In November I'll have my first competitions so I'm getting in the best shape I can during the summer
Hi, I am Madlen and from Berlin. I started Irish dancing 20 years ago and still enjoy every second of my training. However, it is hard to find teacher from Ireland in Germany from which I tend to learn the most. So I look online for people like you who share their "dancing hacks". Thank you :)
Hi, I'm Tyna, I'm 30 from Czechia and I have no dancing or sport background. I just do some yoga and pillates challenges for fun, so I decided to try this to improve my posture. I sometimes use modification I know from yoga, because I am not able to do some exercises and I do,'t want to hurt myself, but so far this is fun. And it is also interesting to compare differences between profesional body and amateur.
I’m not a dancer and never have been, but have really struggled to get back into exercise and fitness since the pandemic. Your content is incredibly helpful and inspiring. Thanks Amy ❤
Hello! I’m Aether, I’m 15 and started Irish dance last year, 1-2 levels away from pre-open, I’m working towards a goal of being in at least 1 or 2 pre-open dances by the end of the year!
I might be 10 months late, but thanks so much for making these videos. I know I need a lot of improvement and this will definitely help!
Hi I’m Cliona, I am 11, I’m a dancer , I live in Melbourne, and I really want come top 10 at Nationals! I really loved this video and I hope that this will help with my turn out!
