Warming Up and Cooling Down is important

Many of us know the importance of warming up before dancing and stretching and cooling down afterwards, but we don’t always do it, do we?

Andrew Knight D.O. has kindly made a video version of his ‘Warming Up and Cooling Down for Morris Dancers’ info sheet, with introductory explanations on why it’s important, followed by demonstrations.

Member contacts can download the accompanying information booklet for free from the Members area on the web site.

Andrew Knight is a member of The Knights of King Ina morris team.

See The Morris Federation’s Youtube channel for this video, and more as they become available.
