Episode 9
In this episode, I'll discuss rest and recovery for dancers and why lack of recovery is one of the single biggest challenges that dancers face. I'll dive into the current culture of more more more, and why this is problematic - especially for adolescent dancers. You'll learn the difference between active and passive recovery and why both are important, as well as how sleep relates to recovery and injury prevention.
