Anonymous ponders: Easiest & fastest way to become flexible? I'm doing ballet next year at school & I'm trying so hard to become flexible before the class starts! I know flexibility can take time, but is there a way to "speed up" the process?Stretch. Yoga maybe? I’m as flexible as a 2x4. Jealous of your ballet though! Practice practice. If you are waiting for your eggs to cook, nothing wrong with practicing your splits. Just know your limits. Don’t over do it. Stretch to an uncomfortable point and hold it. Each time go longer or deeper. This isn’t really my specialty though.

RE flexibility: there is no fast way. it takes a lot of time, & even with very gradual stretching, everyone’s body has limits to how far it can bend. know where yours are - i’ve danced for years & seen ppl tear things from pushing too far too fast.

To the anon w/ the ballet/flexibility Q: If you can go to a dance school and watch the barre portion of the class (usually the first 1/2 hour) that may help. They will usually do stretches on the barre and you can get ideas that you can try at home.

To the anon asking about getting flexible, stretch as soon as you get out of the shower because the hot water will relax your body and make getting flexible a lot easier.
