The IADMS Bulletin for Dancers & Teachers
PUBLIC RESOURCE
The IADMS Bulletin for Dancers and Teachers is a peer-reviewed resource that seeks to solve problems and formulate informed practices in dance education, training, and performance through the practical application and use of dance medicine and science theory and research. The Bulletin addresses issues of concern to educators of amateur, pre-professional or professional dancers across all age groups.
IADMS encourages and facilitates an ongoing dialogue with dancers and educators by addressing their specific concerns via the Letters to the Editor column, where questions are reviewed and answered by the Bulletin's editorial team. We kindly ask that questions submitted for the column focus exclusively on teaching methodology, physical training, or locating resources in the form of literature references or personnel.
IADMS owns the copyright for the Bulletin and it can only be distributed, or reproduced, for educational purposes in its entirety as hard (paper) copies. The content may not be reproduced in any other form without the written permission of IADMS.
