it is called a Fouette it is a type of pirouette and you spelled Pirouette correctly the most famour example of these turns is in swan lake when Odette (she's the good white swan) does 32 in a row without stopping and finishes in a first arabesque en pointe!

well, you probably already know, but it's a fuoette. fouette is french for whipped turning. you can do a bunch of fouettes in a row, or then a fouette,double pirouette,fouette, double pirouette. well, hope this helps!plus, jazz dancers do them sometimes too.
