Nadjell 1,604 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Idk why I always had this misconception I'm scared to try splits cause I think I'll break my hip or something I love dancing classes, I think I tried almost every type of dance in my life except for you know anything in pairs But right now I'm in this class which is like pop/jazz thing and all of the girls know how to split and I'm like... bitch no I've never been interested before in learning how to split... until now should I try it? is it good for my health?

junmyeonsnoodle 1,074 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I think as long as you don't force it, it's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatalite 6,078 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I think it can be bad for your health if you're not conditioned to do a split. Like if I did it right now, I'd probably hurt myself because I don't stretch regularly, but it's probably no big deal for a ballet dancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lighterxx 12,204 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 well as long as you dont force yourself, and warm up, not everyone can do it, so if it hurts just stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harumaki 4,354 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 As long as you warm up first everything is fine, I once forced myself to do it and my thighs hurt for a week :c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzarellart 16 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 It's not for as long as you follow the right procedures in beginning to condition your body. Do it slowly but surely. Don't go beyond what your body can handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver¥Light 173 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Just do it gradually. It improves flexibility and really stretches the muscles. I had jazz dance as part of PE in high school and we routinely did a lot stretching exercises before and after. Splits is one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sakurahanabira 6,633 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 No? The only precaution is to not force yourself into it if your legs aren't flexible enough to do it. You don't want to damage your hamstrings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByulHarangBona 35,161 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I been doing it for years with no issue. Like others have mentioned, just do it gradually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
