Question: Helpful Ballet Stretches!?

I took ballet from when i was about 4 to about 10!. I was well trained, flexible, and strong for my age and I danced with a professional company!. I had to quit because I moved and I can't find a good school nearby!. I am starting up again this summer, 4 years later!. I need to re-establish my flexibility, any good stretches!? thanksWww@QuestionHome@Com

Sorry your routine had to break but it's great you're getting back into it!. My suggestion would be to combine yoga or pilates with the warm-ups you used to do in class!. I had to give up dancing for TEN years and it took about four weeks for my body to get used to it again, but now I've never felt better!. x x xWww@QuestionHome@Com

try some wall stretches, put our legs up against the wall, like ur sitting on the wall and open ur legs into middle split, i find that one works fairly well!.
take some yoga or specific stretching class, they might help
also just make sure to stretch everyday!Www@QuestionHome@Com
