Safer Stronger Dancers: The Veronica K Method™

​​​​​​

I’m Veronica K, a Restorative Ballet Specialist, Certified Personal Trainer, former Physical Therapy Assistant, and professional dancer. With over two decades of experience, I’m passionate about redefining dance instruction by focusing on injury prevention, recovery, and sustainability for dancers of all ages and abilities.

​

I created the Veronica K Method™, a unique approach that integrates therapeutic exercise, myofascial mobility, vestibular training, progressive resistance exercises, muscle energy techniques, corrective ballet exercises, and classical ballet technique. This method is designed to help dancers build strength, prevent injuries, and enhance their artistry while ensuring longevity in their dance careers.

​

My own dance journey began at the age of seven, filled with both triumphs and challenges. Despite facing mental and physical setbacks and being turned away because of my body type, I persevered, finding opportunities to perform professionally with Carnival Cruise Lines and as a freelance artist in the Northeast Ohio region. These experiences fueled my commitment to empowering dancers to overcome obstacles and embrace their unique potential.

​

Beyond my work in dance injury prevention and instruction, I’ve also developed a passion for stage makeup transformation. What began as a fun hobby has grown into another facet of the Veronica K Platform, where I share the art of performance aesthetics with dancers and educators, helping them enhance their stage presence and confidence.

​

I’m excited to offer a variety of resources for the dance community, including my upcoming Summer Intensive from June 27-29th in Cleveland, Ohio. This program, tailored for dancers ages 14-99, features age-appropriate interventions for ballet recovery, corrective ballet technique, instructional strategies, anatomy for dancers, and ballet progression exercises.

 

Joining me will be a lineup of incredible professionals, including The Dance Scientist, professional dancers from the Cleveland Ballet, a past dancer and Ballet Mistress of Ohio Ballet, an Emmy Award-winning makeup artist, and a personal dance physical therapist for Northeast Ohio ballet companies.

​

Whether you’re looking to elevate your ballet technique, instructional strategies, deepen your understanding of injury prevention, or explore the transformative world of stage makeup, I’m here to guide and inspire you.
