In both legs! Over stretched whilst in a dance class yesterday, only been sore today though. I need to dance again on Friday. Will I be able to?! I haven't needed painkillers - yet - but it's uncomfortable to walk atm.

I pulled a calf muscle once very mildly. A week lator I was playing with my kids in the park, running, and I pulled one of the muscles really badly, I couldn't walk, apparently this is quite common - to start with a mild pull, then do a more sever one. I would take it really easy and not dance if you don't have to and stretch it three times a day, and do other exercies for it as advised by a professional.
