Our Dance Strength & Conditioning Workshop complements the training of a dancer. In this workshop, dancers will increase their understanding of their anatomy, proper alignment, while increasing flexibility and strengthening both their upper and lower body. When leading dancers through conditioning exercises, it is important to reiterate the purpose of the exercise and explain the detail of the execution, placement, and alignment of the body.
