In The Spotlight
- Biomechanical Analysis, Correction and Retraining: Reaching the Next
Level of Performance in Classical Ballet and Olympic Development Programs. Overview compiled for the 2005 NYC Dance Teachers
Convention.
- Biomechanics
Pioneer Redefining Orthopedics: Biomechanical analysis, correction and
retraining focuses on the mechanical ideal in classical ballet development,
understanding the mechanism of joint stress and injury, articular range of
motion and alignment optimization.
Note: Regarding the integration of
yoga into your dance or sports development program, SMSI clients are advised
to contact me regarding integration of classical alignment mechanics into
all postures and modifications based on your ability level.
Classical ballet based alignment postures
have been integrated into the biomechanics program utilized with the Dancescience Development
Program at the Nutmeg Conservatory for the Arts.

Injury Prevention
- Common Dance Injuries: Interactive injury information
page. The Harkness Center
for Dance Injuries: Hospital for Joint Diseases Othopaedic Institute.
Hot Yoga: Beware of any training
environment where 100 - 105 degree air temperature is combined with high
humidity, especially if their is
insufficient air circulation. Generally, at 60 percent humidity sweat
will not evaporate. According to the U. S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine
an air temperature
of 95 degrees with 60 percent humidity has the same effect on your body (apparent
air temperature) as 114 degrees.
If your thermoregulatory system
is not conditioned to handle these environmental challenges, the systemic
stress can be significant and contribute to reduced immune system function.
