Physical Conditioning For Social Dancers
Weight lifting for dancers
wondering if there are any muscles or exercises I could pay some extra attention to in order to improve dancing.
1.) Alignment is the most important. Any excerize with improper alignment will risk injury.
2.) You need to start with the core and work outward. Core training is important. Planks and side planks.
3.) You need strength and flexibility. You need to be strong across the whole range of motion
4.) Strengthen your feet, ankles, and calfs as they very important in all dance, especially salsa.
5.) Less weight more reps
6.) Calf endurance is a good call. Calf and Tibialis will improve your balance and help you keep spinning through the evening
7.) deadlifts to work your back and core if you are gonna do lifts or dips;
8.) Some argue that instead of weightlifting – go for calisthenics, stretching or yoga might be more useful. Other muscles groups will make you look healthier, fitter ... but will not really help improving your dancing (unless acrobatics in a choreography but I assume you talk about socials).
9.) General cardio will increase your dance stamina IMMENSELY
10.) Last bit I'll say is, I can't stress out how important even a beginner ballet class can be for an adult dancer.
