Appearing effortless on stage takes mahi behind the scenes.

150 jumps before class even ends. Up to 180 minutes on stage. Up to seven shows a week. Our male dancers train and perform like the elite athletes they are.

This Men's Health Week NZ, a reminder that bodies (and minds) pushed this hard need looking after too.

A shout out to the awesome women of Super Rugby NZ and especially the team at The Gillies Group Hurricanes Poua who kick off their season this weekend. 🏉

We loved meeting up last month - grateful for the laughs and learning together, we have heaps in common. Thank you to our friends at Pacific Radiology who help all of us to keep our teams onstage and on the field. 🩻🩰
