Why Is Good Posture Important?

Posture is not only important for dancing but also sets you up for the rest of your life. Having good posture has many health benefits especially as you get older!

By training at our studio our team of high level instructors are here to guide you through dancing and giving you ways to help keep your body youthful. Posture is a key factor in this process.

Poor posture can mean a number of things most commonly being inflexible muscles that decrease your range of motion and muscle strength of the back and core.

Good posture means having abdominal muscles held, neutral spine that isn’t stretching or bending, shoulders even, arms at your sides, knees pointing straight ahead, and body weight equally distributed.

Proper alignment of your body will set you up for success helping improve blood flow, feeling more confident, supporting your muscles, and keeping your nerves and blood vessels healthy! Good posture will also reduce back and neck pain.
