It's a lot to read, but it should be really helpful, there's a lot of valuable information!. And I hate to correct you, but in ballet, you should never call doing a split, doing the splits!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hi, good question!.

A fantastic resource is ABT's (American Ballet Theater's) online dictionary for ballet terms!. It shows most of them with videos of the professional company!. Here's the link:

Here are some great links for stretching:

http://www!.artofballet!.com/stretch!.html
http://www!.fitnessbible!.org/stretching/b!.!.!.

I also recommend browsing the selection of books on http://www!.discountdance!.com because they have very good books and videos about stretching and excersising!. I like NYC Ballet: Stretches that Anyone Can Do!. That one is very reliable and I like the stretches!.

Good luck and hope I helped!.?Www@QuestionHome@Com
