I like to always remind my dancers about ways to avoid injury. One of the basic ways to avoid injury is to always make sure to stretch and warm up your body. This will loosen up your muscles, which will help to avoid common strain injuries such as shin splints and ankle strains.

Canadian Director

Evel Knievel

 the angels in the picture would be as tall as her shin bone, and her torso would be disproportionately small when compared to her legs.
