I just noticed your response! I appreciate it.  Yes, with the intense rigors of dance and especially ballet, I strive to educate performers that the mind does influence performance, the body and even healing. There are specific strategies (some I have created ) to assist with memory, pain, enhancement. I am continually amazed at the power of mental influence. Love your blog here. Tamara, Thank you.

Cross training is a must. My daughter who is a professional ballet dancer does Bikram Hot yoga every chance she gets and it has noticeably improved her dance and when she is off balance she is rebalanced. When she hurts, it helps. You are absolutely right. Cross training is a must.
