Erika Young: Pelvic Health Trainer

In this episode, I have a conversation with my colleague Erika Young. Erika is a movement specialist and postpartum personal trainer with expertise in the pelvic floor, breath mechanics and posture.  Erika’s work has helped many performers resolve muscle tension dysphonia, avoid vocal surgery, improve breath support and optimize the body to improve vocal power and stamina. Erika lives and works in Tennessee, where she cares for many of Nashville’s biggest voices.  Her client list includes Grammy winners, Country Music Hall of Fame artists, Broadway performers, actors, newscasters and other professional voice users.  Erika helps them to prepare for the demands of the road and find more freedom and ease in their voices. She has three teenage children and has personal experience in restoring the core and pelvic floor. Her athletic background includes gymnastics, track, triathlon and long track speedskating.  Her work is also informed by her history of traumatic brain injury, sensory integration and continuing education through the Postural Restoration Institute.  Erika works with the Vanderbilt University Voice Center, the Dayani Center, and in her private practice, Erika Young Coaching.
