At The Art of Motion, we believe very strongly in cross training, especially for dancers.  Yoga is a great way to tone your muscles, increase your flexibility, and even detoxify your body!  Check out Cindi Cartwright's Winter Yoga schedule:

"The practice of Yoga fills up

the reservoirs of hope and

optimism within you"
