Are you a dancer who is struggling with either strength training, conditioning, and/or mobility? Are you shying away from strength training because you think it could be counterproductive to your dance? (Spoiler: it isn't!)
In today's episode, I am speaking with Jason Harrison, who owns Present Tense Fitness, is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), certified personal trainer, and is a member of the International Association for Dance Medicine & Science. He draws on his experience and qualifications to develop systems for his clients, whether they are members of the general public or professional dancers, to nurture both their bodies and minds, and help create resilience against injury.
When it comes to strength training and metabolic conditioning, there are so many misconceptions and we confront quite a few. We also discuss the gap between passive flexibility and active mobility, the mental side of dance training, plus how having an empathetic coach can keep you safe from an injury that will cost you both time and money.
We are covering a variety of topics but are focusing on dancers in this episode, but if you are not a dancer, no worries, there is still plenty for you to glean from today's conversation. Enjoy!
