Being injured is the pits! But hang in there, I've got you!
For a dancer it's like a prison sentence. And it can feel very hopeless just missing out on so much class time, and feeling like you're losing strength and technique.
Sometimes in order to move forward, we have to stay still for a while.
I know injury so well it's like an old friend. And so everything I have learned over 35 years of dancing, about how to recover from injury and how to keep active while you're injured, is here in this great manual.
It can be your recovery companion, and you will be surprised at how you will come back to dancing with new understanding and better control.
Every single exercise is illustrated with photographs

Come Back Stronger
Surprise yourself with how constructive you can be out of class.
Time off doesn't have to be 'dead' time! While you are injured there are plenty of things you can do to progress your dancing, and I'm here to show you how.
With exercises that are non-weight bearing, and ballet-targetted, you will improve your technique in 3 ways:
"This is a great resource. I loved how your broke it down into systems/parts of the body and what dance moves were associated with what areas. I really liked that."
Sofia - Australia
"I feel like my time off with these exercises really gave me a chance to slow down and improve my technique. My hip control has improved out of sight."
Mimi - Japan
"It’s been very helpful to add on my daily routine 🙂 Thank you so much! still recovering from muscle tears yet but your exercises are really helping it."
