I'm not a professional dancer but I purchased the resistance bands that you recommended and I practice almost every day. I see instant results after each training and I see that I can keep correct posture longer and longer during the day. Thank you so much for that set of exercises! :) ♥
These exercises helped me so much! You explained each one very clearly, and I especially appreciate that you turned around for each one so we can see you from all directions and make sure we are doing them correctly. Even after following along and doing the exercises for just the first time watching the video, I felt less tightness/pain. Bookmarked it so I can try to do these exercises frequently. Thank you so much!!!!
I went to physical therapy at the beginning of this year for pain that was caused by the shoulders rolling too far forward, and the exercises my PT had me do are pretty similar to these! I like that your versions of them use so little equipment. Thank you for putting this whole workout together!
Thank you so much for these exercises.My instructor is ALWAYS saying “shoulders down” I am looking forward getting stronger and improving my posture. Your Tutorials are so inspiring ...they make.me actually want to follow along Thank you for sharing energy and knowledge with all of us budding ballroom dancers
wow i have been looking all over youtube for someone who can give targetted solutions for high shoulders (something very unsightly for dancing indeed, my teacher is always asking me to keep them down, and kp my chest up) but thats tough when certain muscles are "asleep"... so i hope your exercises will wake them up!! thanks so much for these tips! i will try them out and post back on the effectiveness. keep up with your positive energy ! cheers
I am very happy you found this video, make sure to combine it with this one ua-cam.com/video/UyM8319CzKs/v-deo.html Definitely keep me updated. Good luck to you!
@@ballroomwithalexey3951 thanks!!! thats the second video from you that i saved to my exercise list too!! will definitely share to my family and friends. cheers
Thank you for the tips and exercises. I dance flamenco and always get told to put my shoulders down but it’s too painful. Now it makes sense why I have a hard time putting my shoulders down . I need to build muscle.
Mariaelena Gonzalez I’m glad to know that you find it helpful. Here’s one more video which will be really handy in combination with shoulder exercise ua-cam.com/video/UyM8319CzKs/v-deo.html Good lack!
I'm learning Wing Chun and apparently the speed comes from super relaxed shoulders that are kept down - mine and very high and uber tense lol! Great video sir!
Thank you, fantastic. I have always had problems with keeping shoulders down and back. Your simple, succinct yet comprehensive exercises will now replace the mishmash of exercises I have been doing. love your tutorials.
Hi Alexey! Omg thank you sooooo much for doing this video! 😊🙏🏼 I’ve been dealing with severe pain for many years and I was about to accept that I was going to live with it. I’ve only been doing your exercises for a shorter time and I’m already feeling so much better. Can’t wait for future results by keeping doing them! 🤗 Thank you again! 🌹💪🏼
Awesome, good job Natasja! Keep working on improving yourself, and combine it with myofascial release exercises. It’s basically a self massage using the balls or rollers. Those can be very complementary with this exercise! Good luck to you !
Excellent!!! I haven't seen your UA-cam lessons since we've moved. These exercises are great just to have overall better posture whether you dance or not. Developing my upper body is always a struggle for me so I can really appreciate these. I work with resistance bands now ever since I started getting minor aches and pains with weights. I will incorporate the ones I can while I heal. Thank you, Alexey. Cathie
Your tutorials are a great complement to my regular lessons. You are my first go-to when I need more information. You are obviously a very accomplished dancer and coach. If it isn’t intrusive, would you share some of your history with us like when and where you began your career.
Just tried with two bottles having finger recesses (water is about 1.75 liters) so they can keep it easy, instead of weights. The result is amazing ... otherwise I work for the joints in my shoulders, but for some time I have neglected these exercises. Thank you for reminding me!
Hey Alexey, i watch every video you make, but this one is the one that helped me most. Many parts of these exercises made it into my daily routine and yes, it helps. Not within a week, but gradually. Very important for standard dances - it nearly kills my partner when my shoulders go up ;-) After a year i can at least bring my shoulders back down at will while dancing ;-) And it has gotten generally better - from Quasimodo of the dance hall to somewhat OK.
Extraordinary work! I've been looking for a video that does everything yours just did now, but haven't found any. I love how you listed the specific muscles used.
Wow! Thank you so much. I'm brazilian and the ballroom international style It's new here. It's hard to build a process efficient when we no have a specific routine of training. It'll help me really. Thank u.
Hi Alexey! Love your content, just found you and immediately subscribed after watching 2 videos. Very helpful! Was wondering could you make maybe a full video on different exercises for Latin (and maybe Standard?) Dances using Thera Bands?
Thank you for these exercises, I am struggling with holding my arms till the end of final when I am dancing standard. Can you make a video about this? Edit: In the same way I dont want to work on deltoid because I also dance standard.
I feel like my collar bones and shoulder blades are set high on my body, causing it to look like i have a short neck. Are these exercises good for that? I fear building my upper traps and making the problem worse.
EL ZORO thank you for you question. You’re right you have to be carefulto not build your upper traps. None of this exercise are actually focusing on the upper traps, so you should be fine. under each exercise I listed the group of muscles involved. Focus on the ones which involved lower trumpeters. ✌🏻😊

This video helped me in my kendo journey. Every sensei tells you to keep your shoulders down and relax but noone tells you how
after teaching from home for over three months, i must come back to your video to counteract the computer posture. thank you Alex.

Yes, been struggling with this ever since I was at stage school. I will try this out and see whether it FINALLY sorts the problem.
another AMAZING video!! seriously beyond amazing. will be doing every day to help my posture and, in turn, help my dancing!! :))
I’m glad you like the video, be careful and mindful when doing these exercises and adapt them appropriately. Good luck!
I love these exercise videos. They're really helping a lot. My frame has gotten a lot better because of them. Keep doing what you're doing!

Alexey thank you for your contribution it is ever so helpful
In all my perusals of UA-cam, never has anyone before explained why our shoulders appear to defy gravity when everything else wants to slump.
Love your routines. They are the best❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for these exercises, I am struggling with holding my arms till the end of final when I am dancing standard. Can you make a video about this? Edit: In the same way I dont want to work on deltoid because I also dance standard.
Can we do these with pull rope resistance bands
I feel like my collar bones and shoulder blades are set high on my body, causing it to look like i have a short neck. Are these exercises good for that? I fear building my upper traps and making the problem worse.
