Publisher's Synopsis
The Resilient Dancer Guide
11 + 1 Tools for Living Your Ballet Dream While Staying Happy and Healthy
When we were doing the research for this guide, we were surprised at how few studies and useful tools were out there that were aimed specifically for dancers. In the best case, dancers are treated only as athletes by the scientific community and as a result, the unique challenges a ballet dancer faces are totally underestimated. This is what motivated us to create The Resilient Ballet Dancer Guide! Our aim is to offer dancers around the world all the tools necessary to achieve great dancing performance but also stay healthy and happy along the way. Ballet has an expiry date, and the worst thing that can happen to a dancer is to not be able to enjoy every moment of this magical art because of a bad injury or negative mental state. This guide will help you grow exponentially as a dancer BUT ALSO stay healthy and happy. We have created this guide with the unique characteristics of a ballet dancer in mind, and we address the unique challenges that dancers face every day.
