Send us a message!Welcome back to LNXdance with your Co-Hosts, Marcus & Mari! We are excited to be back and close out our celebration of Hispanic/Latine Heritage Month with the inspiring and beautiful Dr. Rebecca Pizarro! BioSite: https://bio.site/On2PhysicalTherapy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/on2physicaltherapy/ Website: https://on2physicaltherapy.com/ A NYC native, Dr. Pizarro always danced as part of her culture but her passion for Latin dance exploded when she learned on2 Salsa in high school. From then, Rebecca trained with various NYC instructors which eventually led to her teaching and performing at local and international venues. While working as an engineer by day and teaching, training, and performing by night, Rebecca lived the life of an extreme dancer. This lifestyle, unfortunately, led to multiple injuries.Trying to find a physical therapist with Latin dance experience proved impossible. Rebecca quickly realized that there was no one who understood the movement vocabulary of Latin dancers. Frustrated, Dr. Pizarro decided to study Western dances such as ballet and modern. While useful, this training did not lead to any insights into injury prevention or body maintenance - instead it created new ones.In an effort to better understand the movement mechanics required of Latin dancers that was lacking in the physical therapy world, Rebecca decided to become a doctor of physical therapy. Her background in structural engineering plus extensive years of dancing gave Dr. Pizarro a unique and deeper insight into the biomechanics of Latin dancers. This led her to opening up On2 Physical Therapy - a clinic that understands and serves the unique needs of Latin dancers.Dr. Pizarro holds certifications in:Bachelors of Engineering - The City College of New YorkDoctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) - Hunter CollegeOne80 System Certified PractitionerPilates Certified - Mat Level 1We are so happy to share her story with you.

Ismael Otero – also known as the “Million Moves Man”. With the help of both instructors Shani Talmor and Ismael Otero, Alex was able to grow both musically and technically.Today, Alex is also known for his unique and creative touch of Traditional-style Bachata. Once he began creating his own set of moves and footwork, others began to notice how much fun and exciting it could be to dance Bachata. Alex would bring the music to life by playing with virtually every beat of the music and showcasing stylish moves matched with flavor and technique.Alex has now taken his Bachata to another level and shares his repertoire of “Killer Moves” with dancers from around the globe. His very first DVD Bachata Fundamentals and Killer Moves was released in the summer of 2010 and has gained positive reviews from both dancers and instructors. He's taught and performed throughout the United States and internationally, including Canada, China, Germany, Israel, Portugal, Spain, France, and the Dominican Republic, to name a few. Alex hopes to help and inspire other Bachata dancers through his classes, workshops, and social dancing.
