Performers Edge Athletic Training

Performers Edge Athletic Training offers private athletic training services centered around pediatric artistic athletes. This includes injury prevention assessment, injury evaluation, preventative and post-injury rehabilitation, as well as recovery tools and modalities. It is my goal to make care more accessible to artistic athletes and to help bridge the gap between them and other health care providers who may not have the same understanding of the unique demands that come with the sport.

For the athlete who is looking to prevent injury and accomplish strength and flexibility goals. Includes goal setting, head-to-toe functional movement analysis, and strength and mobility assessments. Every dancer will leave with a personalized education and 4-6 exercises to help them fill in functional gaps/hit personal goals. 

Rehab and recovery sessions will look different from person to person and day to day, depending on the specific needs at that time. A rehab session could include body weight, resistance band, ankle weight, or free weight exercises. Additionally, things like yoga blocks, pilates balls, and stretching straps could be added. For recovery, nothing will beat sleep, stress management, and nutrition. We will dive into these topics and help make a successful plan outside of the training room. In the training room, we will use things like compression therapy, hot and cold therapy, soft tissue massage, e-stem, cupping, and other manual therapies.
