Kind Words from Workshop Participants
These reflections highlight the themes that consistently shape my teaching with educators in mind. Through the lens of the dance health ecosystem, my aim is to make complex ideas feel more usable, more contextualized, and more connected to the everyday decisions that influence dancer wellbeing, for now, and for life!

“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Dance Prehab and the helpful information that Rob shared with my coworkers and I. The way the information was presented and discussed helped me understand how I can incorporate what I learned into my teaching practices.”
“RAMP was very important and informative for me to learn about. It was all completely new information and a side I had never thought about but everything was clicking and made a lot of sense.”
“I really enjoyed the class and was able to pay more attention to muscle group I normally wouldn’t notice. I will be applying these exercises into my warm up.”
-
“Rob’s background in dance is evident in his techniques and communication. He understands the needs of dancers and what areas need focus for preventative therapy. The in studio movement session was both educational and thorough in answering all questions we had and then some. I highly recommend bringing Dance|Prehab and Rob into your studio.”
“It was a great experience. It is always interesting to learn about other perspectives and the exercises were very accessible. Further there were some interesting dance specific concepts featured.”
“I really appreciated the holistic approach to warm up that focused on raising your heart rate through functional cardio and incorporating mobility work.”
“I will definitely be applying the mobilization exercises for my dancers along with the exercises from the "activate" section that we went over.”
“Each exercise can be applied, in my physiotherapeutic practice or with my dance students.”

“Today’s session was lovely! I really appreciate having a space to connect with other educators and learn how they implement these concepts into class. I don’t often get the chance to talk about this stuff with other people in the dance world. I’ve appreciated the ideas gleaned from your IG and getting to hear your speak live was wonderful. Thank you!”
“Enjoyed the integrated approach and conversation”
“I always enjoy the thought provoking conversation... and of course the workout.”
“Rob was very kind, engaging, and interactive in a way that made me feel welcome and excited for the work he was presenting! Overall, really great energy during the session!!! (:”
“I had so much fun and this workshop was incredibly insightful and inspiring. I loved getting to move again and reconnect with that dancer/child part of myself. It's so interesting looking at these concepts (e.g., warm up and general dance training) from a currently non-active-dancer perspective. It has been making me really reflect on what I wish I did more of in my own training, but also what I hope to incorporate more of and share with others when I get on the teaching / PT side! I'm so glad I got to learn from you again and gain a new perspective. Thank you so much for hosting and I hope to work with you again soon!”
