International Association for Dance Medicine & Science - IADMS enhances the health, well-being, training, and performance of dancers by cultivating educational, medical, and scientific excellence.

A Professional Development Day for Teachers of Dance

This one-day course will share the latest research and opinions from IADMS and leaders in the dance science field on how we can make a difference for our young dancers. Teachers need to be equipped with the latest knowledge of injury prevention, conditioning, nutrition, and mental training for high performance. Using some of the tools first developed for Olympic sports training and now researched in specific for the dance environment, teachers can create healthier, more resilient, and exceptional dancers. The day will provide practical applications and information on the latest science for dancers with workshops and interactive lectures together with thoughts on how to integrate this in your teaching and classes.
