dance specialist

Have you ever been frustrated that stretching your hamstrings isn’t making your leaps higher?

Maybe it’s actually hip flexor weakness limiting your leg height.

Have you ever sprained your ankle when landing from a leap?

It could be a result of weakness in your hip muscles.

Have you struggled to get another revolution on your pirouette no matter how many times you’re told to “pull up”?

Limited big toe extension could be throwing off your balance.

Have you ever sat out of class dealing with an injury while everyone else is practicing?

Rehabilitation from a physical therapist who knows your demands can get you back faster and stronger than before.

As a dance specialist, I look at the body holistically, exploring and identifying the underlying cause of pain or performance deficits.

We’ll target the areas most impactful to your performance enabling you to push beyond your edge.

As a former dancer, I understand the frustration that occurs when struggling to perfect a skill but nothing seems to work. I clearly remember being disappointed when an injury caused me to sit out of a competition.

I’m excited to share the tools I have now as a dance specialist that I wish I had when I was a dancer!
