This course will provide the dancer and non-dancer with various types of stretch, strength, and body alignment exercises. It combines techniques and skills from dance, exercise, and various body therapy programs (e.g. yoga, pilates) to enhance flexibility, strength, postural alignment, balance, coordination, endurance, and movement memory. Enhancement in these areas in turn provides for greater technical ability in any movement-based program such as dance, sports, or exercise programs. Introductory information on anatomy, nutrition, and the care and prevention of injuries will also be included.
