My daughter, Ireland, is a Varsity Hawkette at Maine South High School and Chrissy is their team trainer. Chrissy has been instrumental in keeping Ireland (and the team) in top condition for their 9 month long dance and competition season. With her own dance and training background (professional NBA dancer, Ironman, marathons, you name it!), Chrissy plays many roles to Ireland and the girls on the team. She conditions the team during the season to keep them strong and agile. She treats and teaches the girls how to prevent injuries and recover quickly when they occur. She also helps build endurance, stamina, flexibility and mindfulness in these athletes and all of that, leads to a great sense of confidence and strength on and off the competition floor!

The skills she is teaching these girls will be lifelong lessons in maintaining strong healthy active bodies! Chrissy also puts together off season work outs to keep the momentum going and to continue to challenge the girls on their own. She also helps them prepare for auditions and teaches them how to refuel properly. Additionally, Ireland has worked one on one with Chrissy to tackle some overuse issues related to dance. She has helped her successfully recover from sore knees, lower back strain and shin splints. Chrissy’s approach is always one that gets to the bottom of the issue at hand. She not only treats the symptoms, but actively treats the problem which then prevents future issues! Ireland has loved working with Chrissy and learned a ton. Her dancing has improved tremendously and she is seeing the results of all she has learned with Chrissy.
