Do you feel pain in the front of your shoulder every time you do a cross body lead? 👀

This usually isn’t just a shoulder problem. A lot of times it’s because you’re not getting enough support from your pecs and surrounding muscles, so your shoulder ends up doing more work than it should.

In this video, I’m showing you one exercise to help you engage your pecs properly so your shoulders don’t have to take all the stress. 💪💃

Better muscle support = less unnecessary pain.

Skipping warm-ups might feel like saving time, but it’s actually holding you back. 🚫

❌ Cold, stiff muscles
❌ Higher chance of injuries
❌ Slower reactions on the dance floor

A good warm-up does the opposite — it activates your muscles, sharpens your focus, and sets you up for your best performance.

At On2, we remind dancers: warming up isn’t optional, it’s essential. 🙌

If your shoulder creeps up every time you style… It’s a sign.

That “little lift” might feel like you’re reaching more, but in reality, it’s throwing off your lines, adding tension, and tiring your traps.

Here’s what it really means:
❌ Weak shoulder control
❌ Compensating for fatigue
❌ Missing core-to-arm connection

Retrain your movement, reduce fatigue, and unlock clean, confident lines.
