Today, during my flexibility stretching training class, our teachers were guiding my classmates and me through passive stretching exercises to improve our flexibility, which is essential for dancing with elegance. The teacher asked me to lie down on the floor, take a deep breath, and exhale, then gently stretched my legs to 180 degrees. This type of flexibility stretching is common for professional dancers, even though it can be a little uncomfortable. Our teachers advised us to vocalize if we feel any pain, as it can help us breathe and relax our muscles, reducing the discomfort and allowing us to push through to the end and improve our flexibility.
Note: It is important not to attempt the training in this video by yourself. The students in the video are professional dancers who have been studying for years, and the teachers have over five years of teaching experience, so they are qualified to train students in this way.
In the video, the students are pushing themselves to a higher level of flexibility, so the training is more intense. However, this type of training is harmless because the students have already warmed up before the session, and the bones and muscles are entirely relaxed. After the training, the students receive auxiliary massages to eliminate muscle pain.
Everyone has a different pain tolerance, which is why you may see some students screaming or crying in the video, while others do not. However, this pain is beneficial for flexibility training. If the exercise is not painful, it means the student has not yet reached their limit, and they won't make progress. The pain is controllable, and vocalizing can help students breathe, relax their muscles, and relieve discomfort, allowing them to hold the position long enough to achieve their flexibility goals.
The students in the video are all adults who have paid tuition to learn, so they understand what they need to go through and appreciate the teaching method.
