🕺💃 Stiff hips holding you back in dance? Try this quick warm-up move: Hip CARs (Controlled Articular Rotations).

✨ Benefits:
✔ Opens up your hip joint through its full range
✔ Frees your movement for aramandi & spins
✔ Prevents stiffness + reduces injury risk

Do 10 reps each side (standing or on all fours) before practice—your hips will thank you. 🔥

🌬️✨ Dancers, cooldown isn’t just about stretching—it’s about resetting your body AND mind.

One of the best ways? Belly breathing.
✔ Regulates your nervous system
✔ Slows down your heart rate
✔ Leaves you grounded and calm after practice

Try this: 5–10 slow, deep breaths with one hand on your chest and one on your belly. Inhale fully, exhale completely. 🧘‍♀️

Because recovery isn’t just physical—it’s mental too. 💃🫶

😴✨ Dancers, your secret performance hack? Sleep.

As athletes, dancers need more recovery than most—yet sleep is often the first thing we sacrifice.

Here’s what happens when you don’t get enough rest:
⚡ Slower reactions & reduced focus
⚡ Increased pain & inflammation
⚡ Lower performance on stage

8–9 hours every night isn’t a luxury—it’s part of your training. 🛌💃
Build that habit, protect your performance, and step on stage at your best.

Save this post before your next show as a reminder: rest = results. 🌸

💃✨ Dancers, remember: rest is training too.
As performance season gets closer, the temptation to overtrain is real—but it can backfire.

⚡ Here’s why rest is non-negotiable:
1️⃣ Muscles repair & grow only during rest 🩹
2️⃣ Fatigue = sloppy technique = higher injury risk ❌
3️⃣ Overtraining can disrupt women’s hormones & cycles ⚖️

Fuel well. Train smart. Rest enough.
That’s how you stay stage-ready & injury-free. 🌸

Save this as your reminder before your next big performance! 🙌

Proud to have been a sponsor of Smaran Dance Festival! It was unique as it had different Indian classical dance forms come together on the same stage.

Dr. Divya was able to interact with both performers and attendees to share a little bit about Natya PT services. We look forward to offer Natya services to dancers pursuing various Indian classical dance forms!

I attended my patient’s arangetram a couple of weekends ago with my mom. I always enjoy helping young Bharatnatyam dancers recover from injuries as well as educate them on injury prevention as they are gearing up for one of the most important dance performances of their lives.

It was a proud moment for me to see Shruti do her movements flawlessly and with a smile on her face. It touched my heart when she mentioned me in her ‘thank you’ speech. But what was truly the icing on the cake was when she said that she is now inspired to spread the knowledge of injury prevention to other dancers.

My work as a dance physical therapist is truly done when I can help each one teach one! Congratulations Shruti!! - Dr. Divya

We had a great time at our second studio partner workshop at .kala.nilayam with and her lovely students!

We worked core strengthening exercises and learned how to use the major core muscle in Bharatnatyam to improve posture and reduce joint loading and pain. We also had discussions on individual pain and mobility concerns.

We love helping dancers be their best! Thanks to the group for being warm and receptive!
