Hey dancers!
Just wanted to share some great stretches you can do on the floor to keep your body feeling strong and ready to dance when you return to the studio.
- Pigeon pose: Start on all fours and bring one leg forward, placing the shin on the ground and the foot by the opposite hip. Lower down onto your forearms and hold for 30 seconds. Switch sides.
- Spinal twist: Lie on your back and bring both knees in towards your chest. Let both knees fall to one side, keeping both shoulders on the ground. Hold for 30 seconds and switch sides.
- Hamstring stretch: Lie on your back and bring one leg up, holding onto the back of the thigh with both hands. Straighten the leg and lift it towards the ceiling, keeping your other leg flat on the ground. Hold for 30 seconds and switch sides.
Remember to always warm up before stretching and listen to your body. Happy stretching!
