DANCER STRONG™ Programs is your home for real training made specifically for adult dancers.
Whether you’re returning to dance after years away, dancing for joy, or pushing toward performance goals, these workouts are designed to support your body where it counts—in the studio, on stage, and in everyday life. Created by a professional dancer and certified trainer, DANCER STRONG™ Programs blends dance expertise with current sports science to give you cross-training that delivers real, lasting results.
This isn’t about fitness trends or generic workouts—this is about building a foundation that actually improves your dancing.
Every workout is intentionally programmed from years of experience working with thousands of dancers, addressing common weaknesses, preventing injury, and building the kind of strength, control, and mobility that shows up in your technique. Whether you’re focused on better balance, deeper pliés, more power in your jumps, or just feeling stronger and more confident in your body, these workouts meet you where you are—and help you level up.
We believe in training for the long game.
These workouts are made for real people with real dance goals—no matter your style or experience. With guided plans, expert instruction, and flexible modifications for all levels, you’ll be able to cross-train consistently without burnout. This is about more than just working out—it’s about supporting your passion and building a body that can carry you through your dance journey, now and into the future.
My love affair with movement started as a young dancer and grew as I danced with Ballet West Academy, LINES Ballet Ensemble and The Kibbuttz Contemporary Dance Company Masa. After a career ending Labral Tear to my hip and multiple doctors telling me I would need multiple surgeries, I dove into movement and relearning patterns which lead me to becoming an Instructor of The GYROTONIC® Method, strength and conditioning, and corrective exercises. This path and knowledge has left me not needing surgery, and assisting dancers around the world to increase technique, reduce risk of injury, and get back into the studio after an injury.
I started Align Fitness By Allie in 2013 and have been training dancers for 12+ years of all ages, abilities and styles. Now, thousands of dancers are using my programs world wide, and I see dancers one-on-one in Southern California and have become a destination spot for dancers to travel to receive training. I LOVE assisting dancers to understand their body/technique better, see change with strength, mobility, and corrective exercises. I am passionate about the adult ballet community and continue to build programs and workouts with the adult dancer in mind.

Founder, DANCER STRONG™
Allie provides the most effective, thorough, detailed, and body specific cross training I have ever experienced. Her depth of knowledge is complemented by her realistic, kind, caring, and uplifting demeanor. Even from only working online I saw huge changes in my body, and in my understanding of the mechanics of my body.
"Working with Allie has completely changed not only my strength level but my quality of movement. Her exercises in the DANCER STRONG™ Programs create a clear pathway to build strength and consistent movement patterns"
The online courses that Allie has created are exactly what I was looking for. I’m 34 and only started dancing at 26. I knew from the start that building my strength outside of ballet class would allow me to feel more secure during class.

The Dancer Strong Programs helped me make MAJOR changes in my dancing. Not only do I have more technical ability, but I also have gotten rid of several nagging aches and pains as I've gained strength.
I love the light-bulb-moment cues Allie provides. Allie has extensive knowledge of anatomy and how the body works, yet she can explain it simply and clearly. I've been happy to see increased mobility in my feet through the pointe program! I love Allie's exercises that pack a punch.
I’m not exaggerating when I say that this flexibility course was the magic solution to my hip and hamstring problems. For more than two years, I could not improve hamstring flexibility at all. After taking this course and following a training plan for just 10 days, the pain was completely gone!!! MAGIC!!! After another 10 days, my hamstring flexibility drastically improved. I’m so impressed with this course, I have no words.
"As with all of Allie’s courses, the attention to detail in the instructions and videos is unlike any other resource I’ve found! That really is what makes it possible to see such drastic improvement while working on my own at home."
"DANCER STRONG™ is quite simply a must-have for the artist who aspires to be smart and healthy as well as beautiful."
Allie's DANCER STRONG™ Program changed my life! The DANCER STRONG™ Program gave me a REALISTIC, healthy, buildable routine. I love the manageable repetitions, they helped me stay clear of injuries and actually helped me identify better, healthier ways for my body to move (not just stand pretty)
