well, I agree with both of them on the splits. Just streach every Tag and it will get there. And when Du start classes, and your studio is anything like mine and Du anything like me, Du will only take a class once a week in your fist year, so practice what Du learned otherwise you'll foget it and Du wont get any better and Du wont streach your muscels. this link might help with streaches ideas but if Du have your own, go for it. Theres no right way nad wrong way, ballet is an art.
