Finally a COMPREHENSIVE back flexibility program
Your spine is the centrepiece of everything you do as a dancer. Every backbend, every port de bras, every arabesque… it all flows through your back.
And yet most dancers fall into one of two camps. Either they've been told they just don't have a flexible back, that it's genetic, fixed, not something that changes. Or they want to improve but they're scared to train it, because everything they've seen involves cranking into positions that feel dangerous and look nothing like dance.
Both of those things keep dancers stuck.
The truth is, back flexibility is trainable. But the spine is one of the most complex structures in the body, it's not just one joint, one muscle group, one thing to fix. It's a system. And almost every program out there ignores that completely. They give you generic stretches, passive holds, maybe some cobra pose with no consideration for the thoracic versus the lumbar, the role of the hip flexors, the deep stabilisers that need to be strong enough to actually control the range you're working to build.
That's why so many dancers either plateau, or get hurt trying.
Beautiful Backbends changes that. Here's how:
We train for how your spine actually works
You don't need more generic stretches, you need more of the right work. This program targets the thoracic spine, lumbar spine, hip flexors, deep stabilisers, and the surrounding musculature that controls your backbend, protects your spine, and keeps your back mobile without sacrificing stability.
We train strenght, mobility & flexibility together
You'll train the full system, not just one piece of it. With exercises that develop spinal mobility, backbend flexibility, and the strength to control every degree of that range, you'll build a back that moves freely, bends deeply, and holds up under the demands of training.
We make it realistic and effective
You don't need hours of training to see results. With focused, specific sessions just 2 times a week, you'll build the flexibility, control, and strength that actually makes a difference in your backbend, your port de bras, and how your back feels after a long day in the studio.
About me...
Hi, I'm Monica - a former professional dancer who became obsessed with the parts of training the dance world consistently gets wrong.
Growing up dancing, I never had a naturally flexible back. Which sounds strange, because I'm hypermobile. But that's exactly the problem, when your body is hypermobile and lacks the stability to control that range, it protects itself. The standard advice was more stretching, more passive flexibility work. None of it worked. What I didn't know then was that my body wasn't refusing to bend, it was bracing, because it didn't feel safe to let go.
It wasn't until I started understanding the spine as a system, building genuine strength and control alongside mobility that everything changed. My backbend deepened. The discomfort disappeared. And I realised that what had been holding me back had nothing to do with genetics and everything to do with how I was training.
After my dance career, I dedicated the last 10+ years to understanding exactly why so many dancers struggle with their backs and what actually works to change that. The dance world is decades behind other sports when it comes to spinal conditioning, and dancers are paying the price in restricted backbends, chronic tension, and overuse injuries that never quite resolve.
I created Beautiful Backbends because I've seen the same story play out hundreds of times: dancers who stretch religiously, stay consistent, and still feel like their back is a ceiling they can't break through.
Everyone can develop a deeper, more beautiful backbend safely. I've seen it too many times to believe otherwise. With 20 years of dance and strength & conditioning experience behind this program, I'll show you exactly how.

You've got questions we've got answers (FAQ's)
This 6-week program is comprehensive and progressive, with modifications provided for every exercise and written cues to help you perform each movement safely and correctly. However, if you’re recovering from an injury, it’s always best to check with your physio or healthcare provider before starting. Many dancers use it to rebuild strength and control safely, but individual needs can vary.
It’s a one-time payment of $87 USD. You get lifetime access to the full course, including all video demos, self-assessments, and the downloadable PDF.
Absolutely! The program comes in three levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced, so you start exactly where you are. Each level progresses every 2 weeks, building in complexity as your mobility, strength, and control develop. Every exercise also comes with written regressions and progressions, so you can adapt the training if something feels too easy or too challenging on any given day.
Everything is hosted on LearnWorlds, my online course platform. Once you purchase, you’ll get immediate access to the full program, including video demos, written exercise cues, follow-along workouts, and downloadable resources.
It is definitely included! Once your logged in your course dashboard, open the module list on the left-hand side, scroll past the Week 5 and 6 sections (Advanced level), and you will it at the very bottom of the program.
Absolutely! Most sessions take just 20–30 minutes, and the program includes 2 workouts per week, each one carefully designed to target the structures that matter most for a deep and healthy backbend. You'll focus on spinal mobility, thoracic and lumbar flexibility, and the surrounding strength work that builds control, stability, and genuine range. You'll also get clear guidance on how to integrate the training without overloading your back in the "How to Use This Program" section.
Not much! You'll need 2 yoga blocks (4 for the advanced level), a long resistance band, a cushion, a chair, and a set of light weights (water bottles work just fine). That's it, everything can be done at home or in the studio, no fancy equipment required!
Most dancers start noticing real changes in 3–4 weeks with consistent practice: things like a deeper, more controlled backbend, less tension in the spine after class, and greater ease in extensions and port de bras. Long-term flexibility and strength continue to develop over time, but this program is designed to build those improvements week by week, with a clear, structured approach that targets the exact structures behind a safe, beautiful backbend.
