“The strength-training program, the sense of awareness/clarity, and modes of discovery/inquiry, are all tools that I have transferred into my technique classwork each and every day. There are still things that I have learned need to be worked on, and there are things that I have noticed have improved a great deal. All this is because I am now able to understand how to work from a well-defined place in the mind and the body. This new way of working where the body and mind are one and not separate entities, I believe are the real reason why I’ve been able to get back to dancing fulltime. This is all because of the cross-training for dancers program.” S.Pazos (2013)
