um...not dangerous but try doing them with your hands on your hips to hold them in place when you do them. It might just be a habit.

It isn't bad, but it is a bad habit (sort of) Make sure that before you do a Grand bat ma' you warm up and stretch your legs. When you do it to the side, don't kick above your waist (the highest you should go is 90 degrees) You should keep your hand on your hip.

This is a very common problem, it's not dangerous but it could potentially hurt your technique.
Do some more stretches to relax your legs and hips. When you are doing a battement, remember that you must use your leg muscles, not your feet! Practice makes perfect so just try relaxing your hip and keeping it turned out.

This means that you're overshooting your kick. Try starting low and continue increasing in heighth until you go as high as you without your hips popping. If you aren't satisfied with this height, I'm sorry to tell you this, but all you can do is stretch more.

Do more exercises and stretches that focus on your hip and gluteal areas. You want to strengthen the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that define your hip articulations. Both strength training and yoga (or pilates) can really help you in this.

ive seen this before.
you need to turn out your leg from the hip and try to pull/reach out with your leg and when its placed back try to keep that turn out. its all upper & mid thigh not in the feet . your batmas in second you should see the sole of your shoes when you do it. improve your turn out and it will add to the range of motion in your hips. try it.

i can't say it's a really bad thing cause it doesn't seem to hurt , but i don't think it would be a bad idea to ask your teacher about it. she might be able to teach you a way to fix it, or she might suggest you to go to the doctor.
