I just found some hip/turnout stretches I'll be incorporating into my stretch routine: "Basic Stretches for Tight Hips" (web page). I've seen pretty much all of these sometime in my life, but as a new dancer, some I haven't worked on yet. (I've also been paying lose attention to exactly what is tight when I'm trying to do my splits, and one of the kinda surprising areas I need to work on for splits are my quads. I especially feel the tightness in that area on the leg going towards the back- it's tight right there at the top of it...)
Anyway, here's one of the poses I've seen before and enjoyed and now will be doing more of, taken from that article.
