“It takes an athlete to dance, but an artist to be a dancer.”
--Shanna La Fleur, dancer

Introduction
Dancing is physically and mentally demanding.
You need strength, flexibility, endurance, and overall fitness for dance class and performance.
You develop these attributes through conditioning in dance and other movement-related disciplines.

Dance as Movement and Movement as Dance
Dance is movement, but not all movement is dance. To distinguish dance from movement, you must answer the fundamental questions
What is dance? and Who is a dancer?
When you watch a dancer execute movement, what are some of the attributes that set the dance movements apart from other types of movement?
What abilities does the person need in order to create the movement so that it is dance?

Safety, Health, and Wellness
Collectively, safety, health, and wellness create a holistic view of how your body and mind work when participating in dance.
Understanding anatomy, fitness, kinesiology, alignment, safety, and mental and physical preparation will help you move and dance well throughout your life span.
![Page 10: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Basic Anatomy
The skeleton is
the framework for
the body.
It includes 206
bones of various
sizes and types.
![Page 11: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Muscular System

![Page 12: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Muscular System (continued)
These groups of skeletal muscles help to move and sculpt your body in various ways for dancing:
•Core muscles
•Leg and foot muscles
•Arm and hand muscles
•Neck muscles
All of these muscles work in synergy to create poses and movements that are technically and stylistically correct to achieve artistry in movement.
![Page 13: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
JointsJoint types identify how joints move, their strengths, and their limitations.
•Ball-and-socket joints: hip and shoulder joints.
•Hinge joints: elbow, finger, knee, and toe joints.
•Gliding joints: spine; in the cervical (neck), thoracic (middle back), lumbar (lower back) vertebrae.
•Pivot joints: at the top of the spine, in the forearm, and the lower leg; allow the wrist and ankle to move.
![Page 14: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Connective Tissue
Two types of tissue connect bones and muscles: ligament and tendon.
A ligament is a strong band of tissue that connects bone to bone.
A tendon is a strong band of tissue that connects muscle to the bone.

Dance Fitness
• Strength is the amount of force a muscle can produce. You need strength to dance.
• Flexibility is the ability to move a joint throughout an entire range of motion. Flexibility is an essential part of dance training, and you increase it through stretching.
• Endurance is the ability to perform a movement for a long time.
• Body composition is made up of bone, muscle, fat, and other tissues in addition to water. In exercise science, body composition refers to the proportion of fat mass to lean
muscle tissue in the body.

Basics of Kinesiology
Kinesiology is the science of body movement. These kinesiology principles apply to dance:
Jumping and leaping Pointing
Turning and spotting Falling and rising
Contracting and releasing Breathing
Ankle and foot movements Leading and following
Isolations
![Page 18: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Kinesthetic Awareness and Sense
Kinesthetic awareness is developing a consciousness of muscles, bones, and joints in relation to space and becoming aware of the entire body or a body part as it moves through space.
Kinesthetic sense is feeling how your body and body parts are positioned or move in space and noticing the feedback you receive from these positions or movements.
![Page 19: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Alignment
Achieving good vertical
alignment requires correctly
positioning the parts of the body.
Your text provides a checklist of the steps for doing a self-check on your alignment. See activity 2.4.

Dance Safety
Practicing dance safety crosses all dance forms and includes a variety of components.
•Dance wear, shoes, hair styles, and jewelry
•Dance class etiquette
•Personal space and general space
•Watch, listen, do
![Page 21: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Physical Preparation
• Warming up
• Cooling down
• Stretching
• Treating dance injuries
• PRICED (prevention of injuries, rest, ice, compression, elevation, and decision if you need to see a health professional)
![Page 22: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Mental Preparation
Understanding Stress
Negative stressors are causes for distress; positive stressors can lead to eustress.
![Page 23: Chapter ?? 2 Safety, Health, and Wellness C H A P T E R.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081501/56649ebd5503460f94bc6cca/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Dance Wellness
Dance wellness includes
•nutrition and hydration,
•rest, and
•self-care (the physical, physiological, emotional, and spiritual sides of you as a person).

Summary
Chapter 2 presents a holistic view of safety, health, and wellness in relation to the dancer.
Body knowledge and basic kinesiology principles and their applications support the practice of safety in all dance genres.
Dancers use fitness and conditioning principles to gain strong, supple bodies.
Developing your kinesthetic awareness is an important component of personal spatial awareness in the dance space.
Mental demands require attention to dance at a high level of efficiency and wellness.
The healthy dancer is fueled by good nutrition, adequate hydration, rest, and self-care to attain optimum dance performance levels.
