I'm Injured and Need Help!
“Will I Ever Dance Again…?”
Most dancers will utter these words at least once during their careers. It’s often the first thought when you go over on your ankle, when you crumple to the floor with excruciating pain in your knee, or when the doctor tells you that you need to have an operation. The shock of the injury and the pain of it is usually compounded by a massive wave of fear that floods over you…
Will I ever be able to really dance properly again?
If I am off with an injury, will I lose my place in my troop/group?
How will I keep my strength up?
If I am not training I will fall behind everyone else?
You don’t have to give up what you love!
Unfortunately, after a serious injury, many dancers don’t get back to dancing fully again. Not because they can’t, but because they lose so much condition while being out due to injury, that their return to dance is plagued with even more injury, and it all becomes just too hard.
Giving up what you love, what you live for, or what you feel you were born to do is something that I think no one should ever have to face.
The “Will I Ever Dance Again?” Program will help you make the most of your time in rehab to not only recover fully but to get back stronger, more flexible, and better than ever.
- Stay in class while rehabilitating your injury
- Correct the issues that led to the injury developing in the first place
- Reduce the likelihood that you will get that injury again
