whole body sore after dance class?

New member
hi!
yesterday i had a contemp dance class (like i always) and i stretched beforehand. we had a different teacher and her moves were very passionate and quite odd actually but it was something different and we enjoyed it.

the problem is when i woke up today my whole body was sore. my body would always be sore after dance but this time it was so sore that i can't even move properly. i can't even bend down, straighten my arm etc. and my back hurts continuously. i have ballet today and i don't want to miss it to get my muscles to rest. do you have any ideas to sooth the pain?

thanks
 
Definitely ice! or pain patches would work to. Your body isnt use to the different movements. don't worry you should be fine! Just make sure after a couple of days that you don't have any serve pain because you couldve pulled muscles or torn something. Good luck!
 
you could try icy hot or putting using something warm. your muscles were worked in a way that they haven't been before...but thats good! you're strengthening your muscles! once you get warmed up and start moving around again it won't be as bad!
