A Full Body Dance Assessment
(including pre-pointe) This assessment looks from head to toe at dancers who want to improve aspects of their technique, who might want to start pointe work and who are planning auditions or big performances. It’s a thorough head to toe screening that finds strengths and weaknesses that may contribute to problems with technique or injury. This assessment helps us tailor a strength and conditioning program that can be supervised in our Physio based Pilates classes or given to do at home. A report can be given to teachers and parents if needed.
