Flexibility and Dance

Flexibility- the range of motion possible around a specific joint or series of articulations.

3 stretches in flexibility: ballistic, dynamic, and static.

1.) Ballistic- bouncing motion
2.) Dynamic- active movements of muscle that bring forth a stretch but are not held in the end position.
3.) Static- extended time, 10-60 seconds.

In the dance portion of our class, each member put together their own 8 count dance. The group then put all of the counts together to form the dance.
