Great article explaining how static stretching is not always helping dancers, and it’s sometimes causing harm. Muscles shouldn't be passively stretched. When a dancer is on stage, they never stay in passive positions; they’re dancing dynamically and moving in and out of these extreme ranges of movement. This is the idea behind Essentrics, where our body is made to move and by dynamically stretching and strengthening the muscles eccentrically we can safely work on improving our flexibility and range of motion.

Dance Informa speaks with Sue Mayes and Andrew Pilcher, two leading dance specialist physiotherapists, about stretching for dancers.

Our Online Live Streaming classes are back! Unfortunately due to the latest wave of Covid-19 cases in Hong Kong, we are following government guidelines and are temporarily suspending our studio classes. But that doesn’t mean that you have to stop exercising. You can join us for an online live streaming class* every Monday and Saturday.

As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, I realise some of my clients have been stuck in other parts of the world unable to come back to Hong Kong yet.

With our global network of Essentrics instructors, there's bound to be an instructor near you. Once lockdown has eased in your part of the world, and proper social distancing is being practised, you can use this map to find your nearest instructor to continue your Essentrics classes. Of course I can't wait to see you back in Hong Kong!

In Essentrics we simultaneously stretch and strengthen. In class, I always cue to ask you to imagine that you're pushing or pulling something heavy. Through this imagery we're encouraging you to contract your muscles in a lengthened state while moving with resistance. This is one of the most powerful techniques we use in Essentrics to strengthen and tone your muscles.
