Preparation for Performance – breathing

Posted on by

After our Wellbeing session today in energising movement and mindful relaxation, I am posting a link for you to download the booklet which contains a section on some of the breathing we did today. Although this booklet was written for Highland dancers the work is useful for dancers of all genres.

Many of you will have already downloaded my booklet on Preparation for Performance but if you haven’t then it is below if you want to download it.

I wrote it for Highland Dancers but the exercises. breathing and all are suitable for all dancers (and teachers). In sport they pay attention to preparing for performance instead of leaving it to chance. We can prepare for performance in dance too whether that be for examination, competitions and to make sure we can do our best in class.
