The more you exercise, the more important stretching becomes to your overall health and ability. I like to stretch before and after I dance. Stretching is a way to increase flexibility and reduce injury. Also as every sore dancer knows, it can feel really good to release the built up lactic acid from your tired muscles. The below link is a set of stretches that are meant to increase flexibility, but even if that’s not your goal it is a great idea anyway.

Are there any stretches that you may suggest to help increase flexibility and reduce injury. I would love to learn more.
