Dancers are more likely to have scoliosis than the general population, and while dance can be supportive to an asymmetrical spine, is can also be a frustrating endeavor for a dancer whose spine is different from the norm. In Episode 98, Ellie speaks to Suzanne Koucheravy, a pilates teacher who has devoted her work to supporting dancers with scoliosis through comprehensive, conscientious, educational, and empowering sessions. Together they touch on the basics of scoliosis, how Suzanne understands asymmetrical spines, and many other social elements and emerging perspectives on this complex topic.
