The Street Style Squad Podcast is your go-to source for all things street dance.

The episode discusses cross-training for street dancers and provides insights from books that can help dancers improve their skills.

Cross-training allows dancers to develop a strong foundation in one or more styles of dance and expose themselves to other styles and techniques, such as martial arts and acrobatics.

"The Talent Code" by Daniel Coyle explores the importance of deep practice and repetition in skill acquisition, while "The Cross-Training Advantage" by Pete McCall provides comprehensive guidance on cross-training for athletes. "The Complete Dancer" by Lisa Howell focuses on anatomy, alignment, and injury prevention for dancers of all styles. The episode provides specific tips for effective cross-training, such as listening to one's body and avoiding overtraining, setting specific goals, and experimenting with new things. "The Dancer's Way" by Linda H. Hamilton and "Dance Anatomy" by Jacqui Greene Haas offer further guidance on developing a balanced training program that addresses all aspects of dance training, including technique, strength, flexibility, and artistry.
