EVENT INFORMATION
The morning sessions (Mexico City time 10am – 2pm) will be in a hybrid format, accessible to Spanish-speaking dance teachers from all around the world. Come learn from experts in Paris, Zurich, the UK, and New York on hypermobility in dancers and possible links to scoliosis, neural diversity, and eating disorders; more effective ways to cue and coach your dancers; social media and mental health of young dancers; and accelerating dance learning through Pilates. All sessions are followed by Q and A including reflective and topical conversation with the presenters.
Those attending the in-person sessions in Mexico City will be part of a “watch party” that can network together with further in-depth thoughts and questions guided by Dr Soledad Echegoyen during the lunch break.
The afternoon sessions (Mexico City time 2.45pm – 6.15pm) are in-person only and include nutritional advice teachers can share with dancers regarding what and how to eat/drink before shows and examinations for optimal performance, teacher mental health advice dealing with burnout, the nature of dance Injuries and why/when they happen and finally some cross training ideas for minimizing these injuries. Again these are all followed with Q and A opportunities.
All sessions apply to all dance genres and are current for the needs of dancers today all around the world.
This collaborative dance science event aims to reach all Spanish-speaking dance teachers and educators with valid, scientific information that can easily be disseminated and integrated into training tomorrow’s healthier dancers.
