Little tip

From Pointe Magazine:

Tip: Stretch Deeper 
Want to get a better stretch? Hop on the foam roller first. “Rolling helps to break up adhesions in the muscle,” says Sally Donaubauer, a physical therapist at the Harkness Center for Dance Injuries. “It can also help mobilize the fascia around the muscles.” When the fascia (the connective tissue that surrounds your muscles) is loosened up, you can go further, getting a more productive stretch.
