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.

Sleep and Cravings
Our sleep greatly impacts the production and regulation of our hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers responsible for controlling and coordinating different functions in the body. Examples of these functions include things like reproduction, growth and development, response to illness or injury, and many more.
Nutrient-Density and Cravings
Most of us have heard the term “nutrient-dense” before, but do we all actually understand what it means? Nutrient density technically means the number of nutrients per calorie of food – so it is the ratio of nutrient content to the total energy content in that food.
Self-Care for Optimal Wellness
We all know the truth about diets: they don’t work. And yet, every year millions of people are drawn to flashy, clickbait titles with empty promises to “melt away the pounds.”
