“Stop worrying about what your neighbor is doing, and just think about yourself. Think about the positive goals you are achieving.  Dance training is training, and you are never going to be perfect”

In this episode we speak with Michelina Cassella Kulak, PT. Mickey is currently the senior dance specialist at The Micheli Center in Waltham, Massachusetts and has been the director of physical therapy at both the Boston Ballet Company and School and Boston Children’s Hospital. In this episode we speak about muscles that are weak or tight in dancers, a proper warmup/cool down, recommended forms of cross training, the importance of rest days, and how to approach dance technique during the adolescent growth spurt.
