Welcome to Holistic Dance Wellness: a podcast created from a deep love of dance and a passion for holistic health.

I’m Carlee Bigelow, a holistic health practitioner, dance educator, and dance mom, and I’ve seen firsthand how much dancers give to their art: the long rehearsals, the physical demands, the pressure to perform, and the constant push to improve.

But dancers shouldn’t just be trained harder, they should be supported better.

This podcast explores how holistic health can support dancers every day, not just after injury or burnout. You’ll learn practical, real-world tools to help improve recovery, prevent injury, and support long-term dancer health and performance.

We’ll talk about holistic and integrative approaches including:

• recovery strategies for dancers
• herbal medicine and homeopathy
• aromatherapy and flower essences
• nutrition and hydration for performance
• KT taping and body support tools
• and other natural wellness practices for dancers

➡️ Whether you’re a dancer, dance parent, or teacher, this space is here to help you support stronger, healthier, more resilient dancers… from the inside out.

Because dance is demanding… but with the right support, dancers thrive.
