10 MINUTE BACK STRETCH Routine for Dancers of All Flexibility Levels

What is up artists and movers!
I don’t know about you guys, but all of this sedentary time in quarantine while self isolating has really got my back feeling more achy than usual. In this video I show you guys my simple 10 minute back stretching routine for dancers of all flexibility levels. We progress from the cervical spine down to our lumbar spine with a combination of flexion and extension exercises to help release back pain and encourage for back flexibility. And, the best part is that I’ve included a playlist below for you guys if you want to know what kind of music I listen to while I stretch. Let me know what you guys think. I’ll see you in my next video really soon. Later!

↓ WHO IS GAYLYN LAREESE ↓
Hey there! My name is Gaylyn Lareese, and I am dancer living in Los Angeles. For as long as I can remember, dance has been a part of my life and has truly shaped my personality, my opinions and my life goals. I believe dancers are more than pretty performers on a stage or in a video. True dancers know that dance is how we learn and move through life. It’s the way we’ve chosen to grow to be the people we are meant to be. This is why I call us artists and movers! On my channel I make content for every aspect of dance life including dance tips, dance discussions, and dance entrepreneurship. Join me as I take my love for dance to the next level and hopefully encourage you to do the same 💙

Learning new moves and surprising some dormant muscles. Ouch! This was almost as good as a massage. Thank you!

[@GaylynLareese]

What an amazing compliment! Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it 🤗💙

[@bestplayerever816]

Great routine!! As a drag performer with horrible posture I really gotta work for that extra arch lmao. Can't wait to see more routines like this!

[@GaylynLareese]

Yes drag! Work that arch! More videos coming soon😉💙

[@sherules5005]

3/4/24 Thanks for the practice. My lower back cracks anytime i do lumbar spine rotation 😇

[@coralineroberts9369]

You deserve more support. Keep going!!!

[@GaylynLareese]

Thank you! I promise I have some new stuff coming soon🤗

[@Picklecicle]

Thank you for the video. It’s great. I just have one issue and it’s this way with every back flexibility video I do. Being taught by an already flexible person, my positions look nothing like yours so I don’t know if I’m even getting anything out of them. For example the next to last stretch, I can’t get my knee over and keep both shoulders on the ground. Do I focus more on keeping the shoulders flat on the ground and my knee barely crossed over my body or do I cross my knee all the way over and let the opposite shoulder come off the ground? I need an inflexible person off to the side showing me how it might look in the beginning of starting to get a flexible back.

That’s a great reason to stretch! The stiff back and knees can catch up to you quick😅
