🩰 Your ability to jump isn’t determined by fitting a particular body type.

Powerful jumps require your muscles and tendons to generate, store and release force efficiently — and these are physical qualities that can be trained. 💪

For dancers, the goal should be supporting a strong, healthy and well-fuelled body that can meet the demands of training and performance.

✨ Let’s shift the focus from being lighter to becoming stronger and more powerful.

Happy Fitting Friday! 🤍🩰🩷

Looking at a student today in her gorgeous Bloch Hannah’s 🧑‍🩰

All ten of your toes work together to get you up and over the platform, not just your big toe. It is important for young dancers to strengthen all of their toes (even the pinkies! ☺️) to support both the middle AND the outside border of the foot.

Book in today to get your Pre Pointe Assessment done and to see whether you need strengthen your digiti minimi muscles 🦶😉🩷

🩰 Ever gone to a physio with a sore ankle… only for them to start looking at your hip?
There may be a very good reason!

The body doesn’t move as a collection of completely independent parts. When you jump, land, turn or plié, multiple areas have to coordinate to produce and control the movement.

That means what’s happening at one point in the chain can influence what happens elsewhere.

This is particularly important in dance, where movements often combine large ranges, speed, balance and precise control.

👉 Swipe through for a simple explanation of the kinetic chain, why compensations happen and why the area that hurts isn’t always the only area worth looking at.

🩰 It can be tempting to think that squeezing another class into the week will help you improve faster… but your body needs a chance to catch up with your training too!

Recovery is when your body gets the opportunity to adapt to the work you’ve been doing in the studio.

💤 Sleep, adequate nutrition, strength and conditioning, cross-training and genuine downtime all have a role to play in supporting your dance training.

Sometimes progress isn’t about doing more — it’s about finding the right balance.

Dear Dance Parents…

Starting younger and training more doesn’t automatically mean going further 🩰

Early specialisation in dance can sometimes feel like the only pathway to a professional career — but research has shown that starting intensive, dance-only training at a young age does not guarantee professional success.

Young dancers are still growing, developing and learning. Quality training, appropriate strength and conditioning, adequate recovery, exposure to different types of movement and, most importantly, actually enjoying dance all matter too.

🩰 Great balance isn’t about holding yourself as rigidly as possible.

For dancers, balance is a constantly changing skill. Your body is making small adjustments through your feet, ankles, hips, pelvis and trunk while also processing information about where you are in space.

And the balance you need to hold an arabesque isn’t necessarily the same balance you need to control a turn or land from a jump.

So, if there’s one particular skill where you always seem to lose your balance, simply practising it again and again may not address what’s limiting you.

👉 Swipe through to learn more about balance in dance — plus an exercise you can try for your turns.

If balance or control is holding back your technique, our Dance Physiotherapist can help identify what might be contributing and develop a plan specific to your dancing.

🩰 Want higher, stronger extensions?

Flexibility is only part of the picture. Being able to passively move your leg into a position doesn’t necessarily mean you have the strength to actively lift and control it there.

💪 Building strength through range can help dancers turn their available flexibility into the controlled movement they need for kicks and développés.
So don’t just stretch for those lines — strengthen them too!

Looking at a beautiful .dance.academy students new pointe shoes today!

This dancer is wearing an Energetiks Emilia 🤍

She is lifted in her box, not twisting in her shank and balancing fully over her platform!

A thorough Pre Pointe Assessment, compliance to dance-specific home exercise programs and well fitting shoe are the keys for a successful transition onto pointe!

TRUE OR FALSE? 🤔

"Your turnout comes from your knees and feet."

FALSE ❌

Your real turnout power comes from deep within the hip — a group of muscles called your deep external rotators. They're responsible for rotating and holding your turnout through different ranges of movement, not your knees or feet 🩰

Swipe to learn more about these muscles, and how forcing turnout from the feet can lead to compensations further down the leg.

💌 Dear Dance Parents… what should your dancer be doing these school holidays?

1️⃣ Prioritise rest — after a busy term of school, dance and other activities, give their bodies time to properly recover. A break from training won’t make them lose progress — rest is an important part of keeping young dancers happy, healthy and ready for what’s next!

2️⃣ Focus on foundations, not new tricks — rather than rushing to nail a new skill before concert season, work on the strength, control and technique behind it.

3️⃣ Build strength & conditioning — use the break to prepare your body for the classes, rehearsals and performances coming up next term. 💪🩰

Come back rested, strong and ready to dance! 💗
