Abstract | Dance is an art form with high physical and psychological demands that warrant scientific investigation. This is evident by reports of an overall 80% injury occurrence in the dance population (Laws, 2005, in Wyon et al., 2007). Since 1963 there have been over 2000 articles published in over 440 periodicals in relation to dance medicine and science. The most popular research topics have included technique, psychology, overuse injury and conditioning (Solomon & Solomon, 2003). Unfortunately, there have been no screening tools published that predict a risk of injury to dancers. The need exists for dance professionals to participate in research to further the knowledge base in relation to dancer health and performance and to identify predictors of injury risk (Potter et al., 2007). |
