and for flexibility: do deep stretches using a similar scheme: stretch for 30seconds to 1 minute, then move on to another stretch. repeat the series of stretches 3-4 times. do it 2-3x weekly. for example: i stretch side split legs 30s, then right leg forward split 30s, then left leg forward split 30s, then 1 min rest. Do it again 3 times. move onto another series of stretches. if you stop stretching, your muscles harden and calcify.
I’m far from home & my dance classes and know how essential it is to keep up body flexibility & skills through daily review & learning- So happy I discovered your channel. Great instruction..thank you!💕
hi, i'm not quite at her level, but i am making progress. strength leg ex: squats, leg abductors, leg adductors, hamstring curls, calf raises. routine: 3-4 sets, 6-15 repetitions, done at 75% of your maximum lift. example: my maximum squat is 300lbs. I will do 15 repetitions at 225, rest 1 minute, do 12 repetitions, rest 1 min, do 9, rest 1 min, do 6. Then i move onto next exercise. the whole routine is done 2x per week.
Thank you for teaching whoever watches how to do it

Lol I'm learning a lot of dance terminology by watching these videos
plz tell me...how can i increase my flexibility
If I did battements like that, my dance teacher would kick me out. And you dont have to be that flexible at the start.
What she says is a ‘degage’ or something, we just call a ‘jeté’
I can sit on all splits but I can’t do fvcking battements
you need strength training! work on strengthening your hip flexors and rotators!
