Turn (dance And Gymnastics)
In dance and gymnastics, a turn is a rotation of the body about the vertical axis. It is usually a complete rotation of the body, although quarter (90°) and half (180°) turns are possible for some types of turns. Multiple, consecutive turns are typically named according to the number of 360° rotations (e.g., ''double'' or ''triple'' turn). There are many types of turns, which are differentiated by a number of factors. The performer may be supported by one or both legs or be airborne during a turn. When supported by one leg, that leg is known as the ''supporting'' leg and the other as the ''free'', ''raised'', or ''working'' leg. During airborne turns, the first leg to leave the floor is the ''leading'' leg. Trunk, arm and head positions can vary, and in turns with one supporting leg, the free leg may be straight or bent. Turns can begin in various ways as well. For example, ballet turns may begin by rising to '' relevé'' (supported on the ball of the foot) or by stepping dire ...

Turn (Feeder Song)
"Turn" is a song by Welsh rock band Feeder, released as the third single from their third studio album, ''Echo Park'' (2001), on 2 July 2001. The song reached number 27 in the UK Singles Chart and led to ''Echo Park'' re-entering the top 75 due to the pre-release airplay and stocking of the single on release week.
