How do you improve flexiblity?
There are lots of ways to become more flexible. A major factor of improving your flexibility is to do a variety of stretches every day to ensure that your muscles get used to regular stretching. After about a month you will definitely start to see just how much more flexible you are becoming, as your body will grow accustomed to stretching further out of its comfort zone, therefore pushing it to become more flexible. It will probably take about three months, I'd say, to really improve your flexibility to a much higher level than previously, depending on how flexible you were to begin with. Find about 5 to 7 stretches to do each day and keep this in a routine, then your body will gradually build up more strength to endure this kind of physical exertion and flexibility. After a while of doing these stretches your body will easily perform the tasks at hand as second nature, as it will be so used to doing it.
What is Dynamic stretch?
"Dynamic" means that you are in motion while you perform the exercise. An example of dynamic stretching would be putting your toes on the edge of a step and bouncing as your heels drop below the edge. This would stretch the gastrocnemius. Dynamic stretching can be dangerous because it can lead to muscle tears and other injuries if done improperly so you should learn proper stretching techniques from a qualified trainer.
What are the benefits to stretching What are some of the consequences to not stretching or rushing through a stretching routine?
Stretching is extremely beneficial to many different sports which can also include dance. Stretching reduces the risk of injury in physical activity and makes many different movements (mostly in the legs) less restricted. Rushing though any stretch overly fast or on cold muscles can heighten the risk of injury such as pulling a hamstring so it's important to make sure you're muscles are warm (some sort of 5-10 minute aerobic warm up works great). Try to avoid bouncing while stretching and stretching too far/too quickly.
