Time to get back to it! After a long hiatus from social media I figured I’d start with a bang. As you return to classes, rehearsals, and performance prep, remember to take the time to care for yourself!

Heading into competition season? Don’t forget your basics! Turnout should always come primarily from the external rotator muscle group of the hip. To access this we need good core stabilization, posture and strength. If those words sound unfamiliar or if this is something you struggle with, reach out!

BFR in the dancer. Blood flow restriction is a fabulous tool to help dancers work hard while limited due to injury. Research supports pain modulation effects in addition to the loading benefits). Here the dancer is using the unit to gain strength in releve while painful after a large tibial fracture with fixation.

MIKEY IS HEADING D1!
Michael was one of my first patients almost 5 years ago when I first moved to SC. Despite some consistent time in rehab over the past few years he has continued to work hard, stay focused and keep a great attitude. So honored and excited to be invited to his signing for Villanova Football. I am just so proud of the person he has become: mature, kind, driven and so funny; Villanova is getting the best of the best!

What a whirlwind weekend! 3 performances in 2 days to support all of my dancers outside of the clinic 😊.

So excited to see Kelsey in her role as the Snow Queen at beautiful Nutcracker tea.

Then onto the fall showcase where, despite many challenges during their rigorous semester, everyone performed gorgeously.

Lastly, the Nutcracker where their lively interpretation of the classic had me clapping constantly.

Bravo and Brava to all!!!

Feeling injured, stiff, chronically fatigued, or less sharp at rehearsals? Nutcracker is a crazy time for dancers with long days of class and rehearsals and usually a sharp uptick in loading and time on task. To reduce your risk of injury and improve your performance, try these tips!
💂🏻‍♀️Good sleep hygiene- try to put your phone away when it’s time for bed to maximize your rest.
💂🏾‍♀️Pack LOTS of snacks. You’re burning so much fuel and you have to keep feeding the machine for it to run!
💂🏼‍♀️Give yourself time to warm up. Rehearsals are difficult because of long breaks (maybe even 1-2 hours) between parts. Take time to dynamically get yourself ready to move between sets to reduce risk of injury.
💂🏽Take opportunities to rest as able. Watch a football game, read a book, take a bath.

How do you maximize your performance prep?
