The Idyllic Location for Self Growth

Hi!

Nice to  meet you:) 

I'd love to tell you a little more about me and what i do. 

I'm Adriana, the creator of programs for dancers and athletes who  aspire to train at their best, throughout their careers, even in today's  hectic and demanding lifestyles

My philosophy~

Training to be more resilient is not as difficult as it may sound. We  require four key components for a long, fulfilling career of joyful  expression. The recipe for longevity as a dancer lies in nurturing the  mind, body, spirit, and establishing heart-satisfying community  connections. If any one of these components is missing, it can leave us  feeling as though we need to seek out a new hobby or career.

Having danced since childhood and then transitioning to full-time  performing after college, I learned firsthand that repetitive motion can  take a toll on the body. Nobody talked about injury prevention; it was  just an accepted part of the profession until I began working with  Zinnia, my floor barre instructor. It was then that I realized that  without proper training, imbalances in the body are created

 I began cataloging various techniques to build resilience with each  injury, delving deeper into body physiology and mechanics, and  ultimately finding ways to prevent unnecessary pain and breakdown in the  body. Age does not have to be an inevitable sentence to becoming  fragile & inept.            

As a perpetual student of all things Kinesiology, I am constantly  educating myself on the newest and most cutting-edge research in  physiology. I thoroughly enjoy sharing what I'm currently studying  through my newsletter and social media channels.

I am excited to announce that I will be teaching my signature program,  'The Resilient Dancer,' designed to strengthen the body and create a  roadmap for recovery after injury, postpartum, and to address technique  and postural challenges.

My program incorporates a variety of training tools, including Pilates,  barre, yoga, pranayama, weight training, calisthenics, and functional  mobility training to help dancers build strength and resilience in their  bodies.

I run online and in-person dance classes and frequently perform at  cultural events throughout the San Francisco and San Jose Bay Area in  California, USA. Currently, I am in the process of creating a business  program specifically designed for working dance artists.
