What does the screening include?
Performing artists are invited to participate in a unique screening process, during which a dancer, gymnast, or any other type of performing artist is asked to go through specific movements required for the artform. For example, the ballet dancer me be asked to demonstrate plié, tendu, grande battement, etc. as well as any movements that the dancer has difficulty with. A gymnast may be asked to demonstrate her landing after difficult jumps.
Following the movement screen, recommendations are made for specific exercises to target weakness and prevent injury, as well as hands on revision of joint alignment during the movements which were reviewed. This is a critical tool for keeping performing artists healthy, strong and able, as well as preventing injury.
