UP Studio is the home of The Inner Life of Ballet, an evolved approach to dance conditioning. Developed by Master Trainer & Ballet Rehabilition Specialist, Alicia Head and based on her 20 years of teaching experience, The Inner Life of Ballet aims to evolve the study of classical ballet from one of ‘make it happen’ to ‘let it happen’. Ms. Head believes that injures are so prevalent in ballet because of a lack of knowledge in anatomy and biomechanics that she hopes to empower ballet teachers and dancers through her application of concepts introduced in Pilates and GYROTONIC® method as well as recent findings from the world of dance medicine and science.

Ms. Savoy met Julio Horvath, the creator of the Gyrotonic method, in the early 80’s and has been doing the Gyrotonic method ever since.  “I feel so fortunate to have learned directly from Julio and credit his system with allowing me to dance for many decades. It is my desire to pass on this knowledge to today's young dancers and help them achieve their dance goals.”  Ms. Savoy also studied classical Pilates with Romana Kryzanowska and Robert Fitzgerald in NYC. “Pilates has also been a valuable tool and a harmonious conjunction with Gyrotonic."  Sharon’s studio has Gyrotonic machines, ladders and Pilates reformers.  Call for private or group classes.
