Plank Power Flow

This isn’t your basic plank hold — we’re taking it up a notch, which is usually the case knowing me! Adding movement and weight shifts in your planks forces your body to stay strong while shifting weight and finding balance. Translation: your whole body has to show up for this one. A total-body workout that will make you feel centered, engaged, and ready to take on whatever rehearsal, performance, or class may ask of you.

👉 You’ll light up your deep core muscles (HELLO transversus abdominis + obliques 🔥), challenge your shoulders to stabilize and stay strong, and wake up your glutes so your lower body stays locked in. Think of it as training your core to move with you, not just chill in one spot.

💪 Muscles Targeted:

  • Deep core (transversus abdominis + obliques) → stability + rotational control
    Shoulders → upper body endurance + power

  • Glutes → hip stability + strength + power

  • Full core chain → connects upper + lower body for total-body balance

💃 For Dancers: Dynamic core training = sharper turns, cleaner lines, and next-level control.  A strong, dynamic core supports balance, alignment, and stability through movement. Plus, dynamic core stability trains your body to stay supported through transitions—something crucial for dancers in exhibiting effortless movement quality and staying grounded while also decreasing risk of injury!
