Back in our happy place ποΈββοΈ
A lovely way to mark the end of our 15 week Reel Strength online programme π
Huge shout out to all of the dancers who I had the absolute pleasure of coaching & mentoring these past few months - it was a very different type of Summer, but we made the most of it, reminding ourselves to 'Control the Controllables' - we adapted a positive attitude right from day 1 & set to work π
Ready to put the shoulder to the wheel once again and continue integrating professional led Strength & Conditioning programming and coaching into dancers weekly routine πͺ
Any dancers who want to begin training with us, please email [email protected] ποΈββοΈποΈββοΈ

Single Leg Exercises π
Sharing four of my favourite single leg exercises that I often incorporate in early phases of my strength programming for Irish Dancers πͺ
Not only are these movements excellent at identifying & correcting strength imbalances you might have, they also play a key role in developing stability, balance & overall athleticism π€ΈββοΈ
So my top picks are π₯
πΉοΈ Split Squats
πΉοΈ Single Leg RDL
πΉοΈ Bulgarian Squats
πΉοΈ Box Step-Ups
As I mentioned I would generally incorporate these movements in early phases of my Reel Strength programme & would generally work between 8 - 12 rep range πͺ

Press Up's πββοΈ
Gyms are closed & it's almost impossible to get our hands on home equipment... So for a lot of us, it's body weight workouts for a while π€·ββοΈ
Body weight training can be super beneficial, when performed correctly!!! One movement we often see performed poorly are - Press-Ups π
Watch these videos to see my 3 top tips to improving technique on your press-ups & getting the most out of the movement πͺ

Now that we are back to school, it's time to get up & running with our new term ποΈββοΈ
The term will run for 9 weeks & we have a few options available:
* 2 classes per week (Wednesday 4pm & Sat) & weekly home workout
* 1 class per week (Saturday 11am or 12pm) & weekly home workout
Spaces are limited to 10 dancers per class. Priority will be given to those signing up for the full term - if there are spaces remaining in any of the classes, I will open them out to PAYG but only to dancers who are available for a minimum of 7 out of the 9 weeks - consistency is key π
If you have any questions or would like to book a place please just send a message or email [email protected]
Looking forward to another great term :)
