I haven't hurt myself during a dance season, but I did once AT the recital. I was practicing in the back room, doing shenays (or however you spell those French words. ><), and while doing that I somehow set my foot down on the outside of it, instead of flat. Fell down and broke my foot. XD Didn't know it was broken until later, though; I heard it pop all nicely and stuff, but hadn't broken anything before and could still walk on it. So I did my dance and such (since it was only ten minutes later or so. Having a broken foot makes tour-jites or however they're spelled really hard to do. @_<) Spent the rest of the night lounging around. XD
Still bothers me, though. >< It'll hurt a lot if I do pointe for awhile (especially if I can't get the shoes on right. My shoes are horribly sized.)
So yeah, injuries suck. @_@

Sometimes my knees or my back give me trouble if I dance a lot, or if I slouch a lot during the day and then take class, but I haven't had any major injuries to date. *knocks on wood*
I can imagine how hard it must be for you though, but remember to take it slow, otherwise you'll just reinjure yourself and be out of class for even more time. I hope you feel better soon. *hugs*

I went through a stage where I had to be extra careful of how much I arched or pointed my toes because they would cramp up and it was sooo painful. Other than that, nothing serious. In fact, the only time I twisted my ankle was when I fell in a hole. xp

I once danced in a Music and Dance Revue at camp, I had pulled a thigh muscle (how I did it I'll never know) a couple days ago and it hurt to do most of the moves at rehearsal, so I was scared about dancing in the show. Then, after the show, my thigh didn't hurt at all. It was a mircale! I think.
I also got shin splints last year and this year I had to do this one move over and over again in class, so I was sore for four whole days! It killed to bend my knees.

i have hyper extension in my knees so occasionally i get cramped up in my knees. it is so hard for me to learn to not hyper extend.
also one morning i woke and i couldn't bend my back. i had to sit all day in school with a jacket behind my lower back. its been a few months now and i still can't combre back because it hurts.
i also get those cramped up feet when i pointe. except its because i crunch my toes.

I've never had any serious injuries (fortunately).
But a friend of mine, she twitched her knee during modern class. The ambulance had to come and pick her up. She was really in panic. The ambulance people gave her some laughing gas, so she won't feel anything, while the turned her knee back in place.
She walked 4 weeks with her leg in plaster.
Then she could start dancing again. Only with jumping, she had to start very carefully, and it took quite a time. She had jumping trouble about half a year, with some improvement ofcourse.
I feel for the people who can't dance because of an injurie....
(A serious injurie, not aching muscles because of the hard work, or something wink )

i hate when i get injuried...i am now having this stupid pain in my left leg's upper muscle, so i can't do the frontal splits with my left leg and now suck at some exercises, because it hurts, but it's going by. it's not just from making efforts in class, but i was doing the splits and exagerated...

OMFG!!!! I am so pissed off right now. If you read my earlier post you'll know that I was off for about a month and a half because of an ankle injury, and that about 2 weeks ago I started back again. I never mentioned this, but in about a month I am...was dancing in swan lake. Well last night I tripped on the stairs and sprained my other ankle. Nothing to seriose, but I have to stay off my ankle for 3-6 weeks, just long enough for me to be out of swan lake. I think im like, a magnet for badly timed injuries, because this is no tmy first badly timed injury, its my 3rd and not to mention that im just hoping my ankle will be good enough for me to do a summer intensive program that by some stroke of luck I auditioned into, and unless I go this year, i think my odds of ever gettin in again are very slim.
Ok, sorry everyone, im just using this board as a place to vent b cuz im really mad right now, so sorry everyone who just read that, its not your fault and im like, totally screwing off at you. im just mad, so srry.

I have a rare knee desiece (sp) and I had to take it slow for a year so I could not push myself or else I would totally bust my knee. When I could go back I broke my ankle and was in a cast for 3 months but now I am back and it feels great ^^
