The Daily Five with Katia Pryce
1. Movement is medicine
At DanceBody our mantra is to keep moving. When days are long and things don’t go as planned, getting a little movement into your day can really help set your mind and body at ease.
2. Food is fuel
I believe in using food to energize my body. Having spent the majority of my adult life dancing I learned what my body needs to function at its highest level.
3. Everything in moderation
I love to indulge in some of my favorite foods just like anyone and in my book, that’s okay! At DanceBody, we don’t focus on working out to earn meals but rather turn our focus towards moving for the sake of moving. Enjoying a drink or your favorite candy bar shouldn’t change that.
4. Light weight high repetition
The workout I designed at DanceBody infuses functional training with dance. We use low weights and high repetition to build muscular endurance and create the long lean lines of a dancer. Try for yourself in a DanceBody Sculpt class!
5. Listen to your body
As a movement professional, if you don’t learn to listen to your body when it whispers you will surely hear it when it screams. My body is the foundation for my work and so I work hard to keep it running healthily and efficiently.

We consulted some of our favorite functional medicine doctors to see the top food they recommend to patients who are trying to lose weight.
Jerke Chicken
Jerke Spice is a delicious way to transform any chicken dinner. Native to Jamaica, this spice is made up of cinnamon, cumin, all spice, smoked paprika and red pepper flakes. This aromatic combination can give you a metabolic boost from the heat and hemp stabilize your blood sugar. The tart sweet bite of pomegranates in the cauliflower rice help counter the heat of the chicken.
