The Value Of Online Community In Dance Education

There is a huge need for comprehensive quality dance information to educate young dancers about their bodies, to extend their boundaries and their perception of what they are capable of, and learn about the prevention and treatment of injuries. Far too often in the dance community, the old adage of, “if it hurts, it is good for you” is far too prevalent, and despite the many wonderful teachers who embrace safe dance techniques, many young dancers are getting serious injuries at very young ages. Many young dancers cannot differentiate between the ‘pain’ of a stretch, and ‘injury pain’. They are often ‘working into’ areas best left to heal, and not addressing the real causes of their aches and pains.
