If you haven't started ballet yet, you're probably not turning out right (you're most likely turning out from your knees, which isn't good). You should get your ballet teacher to help you when you start taking classes. Don't worry, turn out is one of the first things that you learn in a beginner class.

Don't give up. I'm a beginner in ballet and I, myself am having trouble with my turn-out. My teacher says I have good turnout but sometimes I'm lazy to do it right. Just keep trying and practicing until you succeed. But don't practice alone, get a professional to help you. Like your teacher.
the way I\i've learned to turnout is to put both feet side by side and open at the same time keeping the heels together..as far as they will go..that is the "natural turnout"..the more you practice the better it will get...just do pli茅s in all postitions slowly and concentrate, 1. on making sure the turnout says how it is suppossed to and 2. making sure your pli茅s are correctly...

Practice makes perfect! Good Luck with everything! =]
Good turnout exericize is called the clam. lay on your sidewith your knees bent and together and your hips striaghtened. while sitll keeping you toes touching, lift the leg that is on top. THis forces you to use your turnout muscles. You can always look up turnout on youtube.com and find that exercise if you didn't understand my description.
Don't do it so widely.

Also, when i do ballet, we do something called the FROG.

You lay on your stomach and lift your feet up and spread out your knees. so if you were sitting up it would look just like the butterfly. It helps your turn out tremendously. thats how i got mine

Hope i Helped!!
If your feet roll in when you turn out, you're turning out too far. Put your feet together with your toes pointin directly in front of you. Then lift your toes and, without forcing it, turn out and put your feet back down. That is your natural turnout, and you should start off working from there, NO FARTHER! If you don't, you could really damage your knees. Turning out from your hips is all about using the muscles that are right where your butt joins your hamstrings and using your inner thighs. You want to strengthen these muscles and always, always, always use them to turn out.
wow k if you havent started classes you shouldnt be pushing yourself like that. its really really important to know proper technique because other wise you could get hurt and its harder to reverse your thinking. so i would just to cardio every day and a little bit of stretching until you join a class but not much else.

if you arent going to wait.. then heres the next best advice i can give you. stop forcing your turn out. i know its frusturating but dont do it. when you plie your toes should not be further out then your knees. they should be right under your knees. something that might help with your turn out is when you go into releve, try to evenly distribute your weight between your big and pinky toe. its a pretty small detail but its very hard to stop this habit of undistributed weight and it will hurt your turn out .. wow there is just a lot of little detail and im sorry to seem rude, but please get formal lessons, you wont be sorry later on
Your feet will roll in when youre pushing yourself beyond proper alignment for turn out. You would just be starting so dont worry! Youll work on it! In ballet it much more quantity over quality so make sure you spend the time making ti correct, not crazy turned out.

Remember that turn out starts in the abdomine, so make sure your spine is aligned, your tummy is pulled up straight, and your hips are squared...you may also want to invest in a theraband to work on stretching the ankles
Your turn out doesn't have to be perfect. I can make my feet go all the way out, but this isn't the case for everyone. Just go out as far as you can go.
