Pivot Spin Tutorial is split into the following sections:

In this video Mel takes you through how to perform a toe stop pivot spin. The breakdown focuses on performing this movement turning to the left (anti-clockwise).

• Check your equipment before you start!

• Plant your toe stop

• Bend your supporting knee.

• Turn your shoulders

• Keep your moving arm above your moving leg

• Point the heel of your pivoting foot towards your moving foot.

• Smile

• Breathe!

We would usually introduce this movement at our Beyond Beginner or Roller Dance classes, once skaters have nailed the fundamental movements.

Please let us know in the comments if this was useful and what else you are working on. We will do our best to schedule it in.
