Elevating Performance Through Wellness
At Dance Debut Inc., we are excited to introduce our “Touch for Health for Dancers” program, a pioneering approach that blends the enriching world of dance with the holistic wellness principles of Touch for Health. This unique program, under the expert guidance of Dr. Michelle Greenwell, is designed to empower dancers of all levels with the knowledge and skills to enhance their performance, prevent injuries, and achieve optimal health and flexibility.
Why Touch for Health for Dancers?
Dancers demand a lot from their bodies, requiring a blend of strength, flexibility, and endurance to perform at their best. Touch for Health, with its roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine and chiropractic principles of Applied Kinesiology, offers a comprehensive framework to support the dancer’s body and mind. By understanding and applying the concepts of muscle balancing, brain integration, emotional stress release, and food sensitivity training, dancers can achieve a new level of harmony and efficiency in their movements.
Program Highlights
- Muscle Balancing: Learn to identify and correct imbalances in the muscles associated with specific meridians and organs, enhancing strength, flexibility, and injury prevention.
- Brain Integration: Techniques to improve coordination, ease of movement, and learning, ensuring that both hemispheres of the brain are working harmoniously together.
- Emotional Stress Release: Discover methods to quickly de-stress before performances or practice, enabling a clear focus and a positive mindset.
- Food Sensitivity Training: Tailor your diet to support your energy levels and performance, using muscle monitoring to identify foods that optimize your well-being.
