Us&OurBest - Preventive Dance Medical Dance Pedagogy OnTour

Us&OurBest - Preventive Dance Medical Dance Pedagogy^© onTour is part of this Academy's onTour Series. It is a basic course for teachers-to-be, dancers who want to train as future pedagogues or ballet masters, or pedagogues who are already working in their profession and want to know how to extend their knowledge to increase their own performance as well as the performance of their dances.

The synergy between dance pedagogy and dance medicine enables teachers, ballet masters, choreographers to guide their dancers towards healthy, safe dance technique and approaches to training and performance. The teacher(-to-be) learns how to create a healthy body and a healthy mind in their dancers by practically applying dance medicine and dance science. Evidence-based approaches to education, training and performance through empowering motivational climates as well as training sciences results in killing two birds with one stone: The dancer's performance can reach their individual best while their injuries are being prevented, all in one go.

Moreover, this course also shines a light on the health and wellbeing of the teacher, pedagogue, or master themselves. What can teachers do to support their own health, how can they deal with injuries and/or age and the burden of the teaching profession? How can an empowering motivational climate they create for their dancers boost their own inspiration, motivation, and health?
