In this episode, Danielle and Jake sit down with Derek Miles of Barbell Medicine. Derek is a gentleman, a scholar, a barbell enthusiast, and a physical therapist who specializes in working with pediatric athletes.

We go into a bit of a deep dive with Derek on "physical literacy" and how we can help foster longer, more robust careers of performing artists. We also talk about early specialization - which is a hot topic in the sports world, but one that we tend to avoid when it comes to the performing arts.
