Testimonials from dancers

 “Tyr is a genius. He is the best, and gets incredible results – everyone that works with him improves tremendously. It only took him a few sessions to make me look and feel 15 years younger. If you have any injuries, or limitations with your body, or you would like to dance better, go to him.”

– David Howard, ballet master 

“Tyr is a master – he helped me look and feel 15 years younger – fixed some injuries that no one else was able too – and helped extend my career by many years. He was able to help the injured dancers in the company get back on stage and dance better than ever. He is a very valuable asset to the dance world.”

– Marcia Haydee, Principal dancer and Artistic Director of Stuttgart Ballet 

“Tyr is a magician. His work has greatly helped my self knowing on the physical plane and rescued my body innumerable times from the rigors of a ballet career.”

“During my professional dance career Tyr was my secret weapon. He got me through my injuries, and helped me dance better than I ever would have otherwise. He is the best, bar none.”

–       Wes Chapman, Principal dancer, American Ballet Theater

“Tyr has helped me recover quickly from numerous debilitating injuries throughout my 10-year professional career. With the unique perspective and knowledge of a dancer, director, and choreographer, his genuine caring and kind manner, combined with his incredible understanding of the movement of the body as a unique mammal throughout our history, he is a true genius like no other.

Having so much knowledge from so many realms he has an amazing understanding and compassion for the body and how it works. With his work I have been able to return to dancing much quicker than using traditional physical therapists and doctors.  I have discovered so much about my body and have gained so much sensitivity, intelligence, and understanding as to how it works.  I know now that all systems have to work in harmony with each other to evolve.

This work has been invaluable to me and I don’t think I could have gotten this far in my career without this amazing work. These things I have learned I will carry with me even after I finish my performing career for a younger and healthier body.” – Lynda Sing, Moving Out on Broadway principal, Dance Theater of Harlem soloist 

“Tyr is amazing. He helped my professional dance career so much. I don’t know what I would have done without him. Try for yourself. You will be so happy you did.”

– Stacy Calvert, former soloist with New York City Ballet and Frankfurt Ballet, head of ballet department, University of South Carolina, Columbia 

“Tyr is brilliant. His unique way of working has helped me through my injuries and taught me how to prevent them. Tyr has aligned my body so I am in control of the movement and able to enjoy it and experience freedom. Tyr informs his clients of the body’s anatomy and of its amazing possibilities. Working with Tyr is a must for anyone who would like to heal any dance injuries, improve their line and technique and dance better and easier.”

– Tobin Eason, American Ballet Theater dancer 

“Working with Tyr and integrating his ideas into my dancing has been very valuable for me. Physically I have become more uplifted through out my entire body as well as thinner, longer, and more flexible. I am much more confident, positive, and happier. The sessions have released the anxiety from my knee injury, and my self-doubt about what I can, and cannot do does not play into my mind anymore. I have felt much healthier and that has helped me let go of negative energy, and really given me the courage to go out there and use my full potential in Ballet and my life. Through this work I feel like I have become much freer in all aspects of my life – and have felt a new level of brilliance in everything that I do.”

– Buck Collins, American Ballet Theater 

“Tyr’s incredible knowledge of how the body works and moves has helped me dance more beautifully and effortlessly. He has developed an amazing system of deep bodywork that helped me dance with more poise and confidence – add greater depth and clarity to my dancing – and feel more natural and relaxed in class and on stage and in life.”

– Chris Lechner, Soloist, Stuttgart Ballet 

“Tyr Throne’s work is the opportunity to give persons of all walks of life the freedom of movement of a dancer and the freedom that stems from that…for me this is the only thing that I can imagine doing in life besides dancing. It’s better than dancing because it doesn’t require music and you become the work it’s not just something you do.”

“Tyr helped me overcome the physical limitations getting in the way of me dancing better and enjoying my dancing and helped me to be more comfortable, strong and flexible and enjoy my dancing more. And to use my body better and dance better by giving me better information and knowledge about how the body works. It was really a pleasure working with him – he is so kind and generous and really understands and cares about dancers.”

– Allen Schissler, Massage Therapist, Soloist, American Repertory Ballet
