I am PASSIONATE about helping dancers continue dancing for as long as possible. 

 

My MISSION is to help dancers of all styles and levels become STRONGER and SAFER dancers, helping to

AVOID INJURY, and REHABILITATE properly from injury by providing evidenced based Exercise Physiology Services.

​

I strongly believe that KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, so my aim is to help all dancers to better understand their bodies and how they work.

​

I look forward to joining you on your journey towards becoming a SAFER, STRONGER & more INFORMED dancer.

How it works...

1

Identify your weaknesses

Weaknesses may include flexibility, balance, muscle strength or other issues.

 

Therefore, all students must attend a screening session before participating in either individual or group sessions.

This session provides an opportunity to evaluate each student’s strengths and weaknesses individually and develop a training plan.

 

Students can also identify their personal dance and fitness goals and provide information about any current or past injuries.  

2

Work together to achieve your goals

After students are screened, goals are set and regularly evaluated.

 

Even if you have no injuries, prevention is much better than the cure, and every dancer has their own goals they wish to achieve with their dancing including becoming more flexible to do those splits, improving their balance for turns, or gaining the strength to hold their leg up higher.

 

Goals may be measured by taking photos allowing analysis of body angles or aesthetics or using tools such as tape measures or goniometers.

A Program tailored to YOU

Each session students attend will be tailored to their individual needs – even within the group classes. This assists students to achieve their own personal goals, rather than just increasing general strength or fitness.

 

This is not a one size fits all like some strength and conditioning programs out there. This is about you, your body, your dancing and your goals. 

 

If you are injured, we work together to figure out what you can still do while your injury is recovering. 

Working with a qualified Exercise Physiologist means that you are working with an accredited professional who understands not just dancing and exercise, but the health and wellbeing of your whole body. I can also work along side your chosen physiotherapist, GP or specialist to ensure you receive the right care every time.
