What is Dance Science?
Dance science includes a multitude of disciplines related to dance training and performance. Dance science researchers focus on optimizing dance performance via physiology, biomechanics, fitness, psychology, and nutrition. In addition, dance science can include the health and wellbeing of dancers from a holistic perspective.
Without dance science, dancers would not have the understanding of their bodies, training principles, safety, or impact of dance on their bodies and minds. Dance science is a fast-growing field of research committed to helping dancers around the world.
What makes BodyKinect different?
Our attention to safety and education.
To put it simply, there are other training programs and trainers out there for dancers, but do they have the qualifications and attention to safety that we have?
BodyKinect's core value is education. With our team being certified in personal training, certified in Pilates, and coming from a dance science background, we value the WHY behind the training. We want you to get stronger - safely and effectively - while simultaneously introducing you the tools you need for a long dance career.
Mikayla McBride, NY
"Kendall was able to make a workout routine specific to my goals and current abilities, and strengths which is something I would have not been able to do on my own. I have felt that I have gained more strength in my body as a whole, and I have more power in my jumps and control in my turns."
Olivia Clayton, SC
"I like that I feel good on stage when doing my turns and tricks. I am not scared I will lose balance anymore. I love that Ms. Kendall pushes me to get better each week and is as happy as me when I do."
Laura Mays, IN
"I was blown away at Kendall's knowledge and ability to work across the online platform to quickly assess and identify my daughter's needs and to develop an appropriate workout plan. I have noticed a change in [my daughter's] body and overall strength."
