ALIGNED, STRENGTHENED, EMPOWERED
Yoga for dancers and athletes
Whether you are a dancer —no matter the style — or an athlete —competitive or amateur —, your performance can benefit from the integration of Yoga into your training. Dancers and athletes who practice yoga stand to gain muscle strength, awareness of alignment, joint stability, and inner focus for their work. Yoga has become a core part of the training schedule of many acclaimed dance companies including Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Cirque du Soleil and diverse athletes because of its great body/mind/sprit benefits.
A dancer/athlete needs balance for the many hours of training and rehearsals, the highs and lows of auditions and competitions, heavy touring schedules, and the periods off in between projects.
So I would like to share the tool kit from Yoga practice and philosophy that supported every stage in my career as a professional dancer with you!
The aim of these sessions is to leave you feeling inspired, strengthened, empowered and relaxed!
