Dancers are athletes.
Just like any other athlete, it’s important that we be conscious about how we are fueling our bodies. The stereotype of the stick-thin waif who dines on lettuce leaves are long gone, and as our field becomes increasingly physical, so too must our fitness and nutrition.
Fruity Smoothie
- 1 banana
- 1 cup frozen strawberries*
- 1/2 cup frozen other berries (I use blueberries and raspberries)*
- 1/4-1/2 cup plain yogurt (regular or greek)
- juice of 2-3 oranges
- spoonful of honey (optional)
Place all ingredients in the blender and puree until smooth. Pour into a glass or travel cup and sip through a straw!
Additional Tips:*You can use fresh fruit, but you can add a few ice cubes to make it cold and smooth. Better yet, buy fresh fruit in season, wash it, and freeze it yourself!
