As the assistant coach of the San Diego State Dance Team ensuring that our dancers feel strong and healthy throughout the year is our #1 priority. Nicole taught our dancers proper stretching techniques, exercises, and recovery methods to reduce the risk of injury and optimize their performance. This type of training and injury prevention is not something you typically receive at a traditional dance studio. So much of what we learned from Nicole was new to us, and now we apply it to our weekly practices! We are so thankful for Impact Dance and Physical Therapy for helping our dancers take care of their bodies, and promote the long-term success and durability of their dance career.

I am grateful to have found Dr. Nicole Taylor at Impact Dance and Physical Therapy. A year ago, my daughter came in with a hip impingement, and Dr. Nicole worked with her, creating fun and effective exercises. In no time, my daughter was as good as new. Dr. Nicole truly understood the needs of a competitive dancer and made sure my daughter was able to continue competing.

This year, we returned due to some tightness in her hamstrings. Dr. Nicole carefully observed every movement, developing a personalized plan. In less than a month, my daughter’s weaker hamstring was stronger than the other side.

I cannot recommend Dr. Nicole enough! She goes above and beyond, even watching my daughter’s competition to identify areas we could work on to make her the best dancer possible. What’s even more remarkable is that, as a ten-year-old, my daughter never complains about doing her exercises and looks forward to each session with Nicole.

I cannot say enough about the incredible care my daughter has received from Dr. Kimby. After struggling with a back injury that was impacting her ability to dance, we were lucky to find such a dedicated and knowledgeable physical therapist. Dr. Kimby not only helped my daughter recover from her injury but also worked closely with her to build strength, improve her posture, and ensure she can perform at her best in dance.

What sets Dr. Kimby apart is their understanding of the specific demands of dance and how to tailor the therapy to support her goals. My daughter feels stronger, more confident, and injury-free. Dr. Kimby is always patient, encouraging, and takes the time to explain each exercise and records them to make sure she continues to do her exercises at home.

We are so grateful for the positive impact Dr. Kimby has had on my daughter’s physical health and her dance journey. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of physical therapy, especially for dancers!"
