Welcome to Aligned: Neuro Tools for Dancers—the app designed to help dancers and teachers go beyond traditional training. Learn brain-based tools that enhance technique, prevent injury, and keep you dancing at your best.

Working with Deborah Vogel on brain-based techniques and neuro tools has enhanced my dancing in unexpected ways. From levels of brain-body awareness I’d never been prompted to explore, to various physiological changes that have increased both my range of motion and confidence, the results of the work she has developed have been tangible and exciting. For the dancer, who can only push their body so far, having a set of tools to work with in the brain to complement rigorous physical demand is a meaningful way to make progress without the risk of overexerting the body. Best of all, Deborah is a bright and kind person who cares deeply about her work and the well-being and success of all who are lucky enough to come across her teachings.”
