Review: Every dancer should own this book - I bought this book upon peeking into Yoga Anatomy at the Nature and Science Museum. Looking to save money and buying it used, to save a tree ;) this book popped up on my reccommendations and as a dancer I thought: "hmmm... that looks useful". So I ordered it and when I received it I couldn't put it down. The reason why this book is such a plus is due to the incredibly helpful illustrations that go with the great specified workout suggestions and inform you exactly about what muscle is being targeted. Also the "Dance Focus" next to every workout, showing and explaining in what area of dance or during what kind of move you would use that muscle. The book is split into the sections of the body and each chapter begins with a wonderful Info on that area of the body, including Illustrations of sceletal structure and then the muscle layers atop that. After I had the book for a few days I decided it wouldn't be a bad idea to actually know those bones and muscles by heart, so I stuck little pieces of blank paper over the words and started studying indead of just reading it all and it helped me immensely in the actual workouts. My Arm, Adducter, Hamstring, Knee and Releve Strength has improved considerably since I've been working with this book. A must have, if you want to improve specific aspects of your dancing!!!
Review: Improvement & recovery -superb! - This book has been enormously helpful to me as an older, amateur dancer especially now during recovery from rotator cuff surgery. I have a medical education & over 30 years of clinical practice experience. I found the diagrams & text with focus on integrated function for dance to be very unique & helpful in improving turnout, arabesque & port de bras. I recently underwent rotator cuff surgery & struggling with some advanced integrated movements to restore my ballet arm positions. My therapy team is unfamiliar with my problem and we are using this book to guide restorative exercises. My therapy team loves the text & diagrams so much, I purchased a book for them. I found the diagrams & text to be superior to my medical textbooks! I highly recommend this book to dancers & therapists for improvement & injury recovery! It is sooo well done! I keep it in my dance bag!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great purchase
*by K***Z on November 18, 2013*

Dancer on the side, can't always make it to class and travel a lot. This book is filled with tons of additional exercises one could do on top of/in between classes for the active dancer or while slowly working back into things for the former dancer. A lot of the dance moves suggest having some sort of bar, but one can easily substitute some other form of support (desk, table, etc). Broken up by body area, so if you have a trouble area you can focus on that or if you're looking for a whole body work out you can choose different exercises for all the different parts of the body. Very detailed, easy to read and follow along with, love the diagrams on the side of each exercise that show what moves/positions each exercise can help with.
