“Workouts for Musicians”

One Hour Workshop Why should musicians be concerned with exercise or strength training? Beyond the obvious, there are some scary statistics and the most recent research shows up to 93% of musicians can become injured as a direct result of playing their instruments. This basic lecture will cover the statistics and the basics of what you can do prevent injury in yourself and your students. Students of this workshop will have the option to participate in stretches, activation exercises and movement drills.

If you are a school looking to fulfill your NASM accredidation requirements, this workshop fulfills that requirement.

Student limit: 25
