Had an amazing time at again!

This community thrives on the passion and expertise of professionals worldwide, working together to advance the health & well-being of dance community.

Between learning, networking, and dancing, this conference is the highlight of my year!

Thanks to everyone who made it special, from old friends to new connections and everyone in between.

Now it’s time to head back home - excited to bring back all I learned to my clients and my students.

Here’s looking forward to the next one in Melbourne!! 🇦🇺

It's a whirlwind of a month, and we're about halfway through it!

Two weekends ago, I attended the Therapeutic Pain Neuroscience course from EIM, taught by the amazing Dr. Adriaan Louw.

This past weekend, I was in Seattle, competing at Retaliation Swing (West Coast Swing) and taking the Judges Training course. I mock judged every non-routine division (aside from my own), meaning over 70 dances in 3 days! I learned so much in the process. I also ended up taking 3rd place, earning a super cool trophy AND now qualifying for the next division at my next competition weekend.

This week/weekend, I'm off to Las Vegas, where I'll be attending and presenting at the International Association for Dance Medicine and Science annual conference. I'll also be participating in some additional meetings as Chair of the Small Business Owners Special Interest Group.

My IADMS session is called "Navigating partnered dance: strategies for injury reduction & flow in the context of modern Swing".

Finally, I'll be attending and presenting at the annual conference for the American Physical Therapy Association Colorado Chapter, with a topic titled Beyond the Norm: Exploring the Full Spectrum of PT Careers".

Needless to say, it's a FULL month but it's full of things that I love doing!

This past weekend, I attended Retaliation Swing for the first time (& for their first year as a WSDC-sanctioned event).

First, I had the opportunity to take a Judges Training with the amazing Wren Newman. With several hours of educational sessions and over 70 competition dances-worth of mock judging, I learned a LOT!

I also participated in the Intermediate J&J, taking 3rd place with my partner, Elizabeth Wyke, who I'd never met or danced with before. We had some amazing dances & a great time!

This also means that I've now earned enough points to progress to the Advanced level for my next contest!!

So excited to be invited by to participate in this faculty webinar!

I've been teaching the wound care/management content in our curriculum for a few years now and, this past year, was able to use this new PhysioU Fundamentals Course within my course.

In this webinar, we'll be discussing how I integrated this new resource into my existing course, what worked well and what I plan on approaching differently next year, and more.

Hope to "see" you there!

“I’m off the clock and on the floor.” 🕺💃

For the first time in years, I’m heading to SwingTime *just* as an attendee—and I’m genuinely excited about it.

Usually, you’ll find me providing hours of PT care behind the scenes, scrambling to participate in a comp or a bit of late-night dancing when I can. But this year, between weekend logistics, a full clinic move, and wrapping up a hectic semester while transitioning to a full-time faculty role… I just couldn’t make it work to be there in a professional capacity.

So instead, I’m giving myself the *rare* chance to simply enjoy: workshops, competitions, social dancing, and actual time in the ballroom to connect and catch up with folks outside of sessions at a large local event.

I plan to be back in action next year—but for now, if you see me, come say hi. I’ll be on the floor... *and* off the clock. 😄

Yes, it was just a half day, but still!7 (full) days to go - we’ve got this!

This past weekend, we had the Colorado Swing Classic, one of the West Coast Swing competitions that happens in Colorado each year.

Our dance PT, Dr. Alyssa, participated in 2 events and placed in th Top 10 in both!
🥉 3rd Place - Intermediate J&J
🌟 6th Place - Hi/Lo J&J

It's so much fun to be a dance specialist who also trains & competes!

Big changes are coming… and I’m so excited to share them with you! 🎉

After years of growing alongside my amazing clients, I’m stepping into a new chapter—one that brings new opportunities, a beautiful new space, and a refined focus in my clinical work.

Here’s what’s ahead:
✨ A move to a state-of-the-art facility just 2 minutes from our current location
🩰 A shift toward working primarily with dancers and performance-focused sessions
🧠 A new academic role that’s reducing my clinical hours—but opening doors for more specialized care
🤝 Access to a full team of providers, recovery tools, and wellness resources through

➡️ Starting August 1st, I’ll still be seeing clients at our temporary location inside Fit to Live Wellness in Greenwood Village, until the new space is ready for us a few weeks later!

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. I can’t wait for what’s next. 💛
