1. Muscular strength is essential for dancers. When you focus on your core it becomes the center of all movement. A strong core will support your jumps, lands, stability and lower the risk of possible injuries.
How to improve your core using TRX:
The TRX suspension trainer will help build that rock solid core. The best part of the trainer is that every movement you do whether you are focusing on your legs or arms, your core will ALWAYS be activated. You should be engaging your core throughout all functional movements.
2. Balance is essential for dancers. Learning your center aids in finding your balance. Finding that solid balance will support good posture and technique, learning how to ground through movement, seamless turns, stable leg lifts and so much more.
How to improve your balance using TRX:
One of the main features of the suspension trainer is the stabilizing loop. This is the circle at the top of your strap- if you are not balanced you will find yourself sliding back and forth instead of having a solid grip. It will also help you identify and correct imbalances, the benefits of this strap are endless.
3. Flexibility is essential for dancers. When you focus on improving your flexibility, you will experience more fluidity throughout your movement. Also, stretching loosens the muscles which in the end helps prevent possible injuries. Being mindful of a daily stretching routine will improve your splits, leaps, leg lifts, shoulder, back and hip flexibility, and will also help in lengthening the body and joints.
How to improve your flexibility using TRX:
There are endless exercises we can do on the suspension trainer to improve flexibility. Splits, lunges, supporting backbends, forward folds, and shoulder stretches are just a few of these exercises. We also have TRX Yoga which is an incredible program to increase flexibility.
