How To Get Higher Leg Extensions- Class With Miss Auti

Hi dancers! Today I am bringing you a dance class on how to get higher leg extensions. I know we all want to work on flexibility and getting awesome leg holds, tilts, and other flexibility tricks. Trainer Kendall Baab, from True Dance Potential, joins me and teaches us a few exercises to improve mobility and leg height! She really knows her stuff and we are so lucky that she shares flexibility tips in this follow along tutorial. We start out with half-circles, move into clamshells, make our way to a hamstring stretch, and then even try an actual leg hold in center. Every one of these exercises helps not only with stretching, but with strength and balance too. Hope you love this stretch tutorial just as much as me- let us know how your leg extensions improve! Don't forget to show Kendall some love... here's how to find her.

Another exercise that I do (it is sort of like clam shells, and uses them to start and end the exercise) The steps: 1) Do clam shells 5 times 2)Now, instead of only lifting your knee, lift your entire leg (but keep it in the same position, so a 90 degree angle). Do this 5 times as well. 3) Now straighten the top leg and do step 2 (but with a straight leg). Do this one 5 times, too! 4) This one is a little different from the rest; instead of lifting your leg, you are going to straighten it, and pull it into your stomach. You can do a 90 degree angle and match the bottom leg, or pull it all the way in. Do this one 10 times. 5) Do steps 3, 2, and 1. 6) Sit in butterfly for as long as you'd like to let it stretch! 7) Continue steps 1-5 on the other side! Then sit in butterfly, and continue other stretches if you'd like! :) Viola! This will probably burn a whole lot, but it helps a ton! Lots of love, -It's Daphne.

[@melindamercier6811]

My daughter has had ridiculous flexibility since birth. The girl can put her toes right over the top of her head! You can imagine how happy that makes her ballet teacher. 🤣 Let’s not get into how I can barely touch my toes. 😅

[@Bambangtjg]

Woww it is beautiful 👌👍

[@luanamoreno1879]

Amei 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😊

[@CowboyBebop444]

Awesomeness

[@Tn-ou2pj]

No matter how much I stretch I can’t get a fully higher leg extension it’s like my leg stops and I feel like it’s just a little bit more would work out, is it a hip flexor or hamstring thing?

[@sofiaarjonilla9752]

hi auti! is a general stretch/ warmup recommend before this routine?

[@ti-and-me]

Would definitely help! I have warmup and stretch videos :)
