Level-up your dance with the power of #science 💙 Made in 🇩🇪, reppin 🌍-wide

⚕️Health Education 4 Dancers
🗣 Lectures, panel discussions and networking ➡️ The 6th dance pedagogical research day was an enriching exchange between colleagues from dance research and dance pedagogy. 🙏 Thank you to the Institute for Dance and Movement Culture for the invitation. 🙌 We are very grateful for the platform and are happy to have met so many experts in this field.
A day full of DANCER HEALTH and TRAINING SCIENCE! A day full of DANCER HEALTH and TRAINING SCIENCE! So happy to see y'all there and share with you 💙💪at the @keraamikaworld . What was your favorite moment from the @hodcamp_socialdanceweek ? 🤓
HE4DS @hodcamp_socialdanceweek! Last weekend we w HE4DS @hodcamp_socialdanceweek! Last weekend we were lucky enough to share some dope dance and health knowledge with the @keraamikaworld students & friends! During our workshops on self-therapy and the perfect dance training structure, we gave tools, insights, tipps and tricks for people to use to dance as good and long as possible! 💙 Loved the atmosphere! If you've been there: Hit us up and share you're feedback with us! 🙌🙌🙌 Where should HE4DS drop by next? Let us know in the comments 👇
Do we talk about #SafeSpaces enough? Cause to us, Do we talk about #SafeSpaces enough? Cause to us, they are so, so important. Our passion is the health of dancers, but... ... Sometimes it's hard for people to open up about their problems. To admit that they can't go on by themselves. That they need help. To admit they have made mistakes (trained wrong, didn't take good care of their bodies). Here's the thing: We never judge. Our goal is to help, not to scold you for things you didn't know before. And we're thankful for everybody who opens up and wants to do the work. We strive to create that safe space you deserve for you in our coachings and sessions. Last month we got to attend another beautiful safe space: We got to teach those talented sisters* @sister_hood_festival ➡️ @sophiela__ gave a talk on the importance of health for dancers. ⚡ In an open question panel we discussed the participants topics. We got to cover a super wide range of subjects, ranging from mental training to breathwork to bodywork and mobility. Thanks to all who participated: For your willingness to open up and your positive energy. One love 💙 #womenempowerment #femaledancer #dancerhealth
@sister_hood_festival was a blast ! We loved the e @sister_hood_festival was a blast ! We loved the energy of all the wonderful female* dancers, who were super interested in all topics about physical and mental dancer health. To all of you who are now here with us: Welcome to the community 💙💙💙 Any questions left? Drop them below or DM us 🙌 #femaledancer #bgirl #breaking #waacking #popping #locking #rocking #afrohouse #boogaloo #krumping
💃 As a dancer, you should regularly TRAIN YOUR 💃 As a dancer, you should regularly TRAIN YOUR BALANCE additionally to your dance training. ✅ A daily balance training of 10 to 15 minutes is optimal. 📈 The aim is to achieve a long-term effect on coordination skills with a rather low volume and high intensity. But WHY should you train your balance as a dancer❓ ⚖ Dance-specific balance training improves coordination in the long term, which prevents acute injuries and chronic overuse injuries. 💡 Balance deficits in capsule-ligament injuries of the ankle and knee are often found to be the cause of dance injuries. Studies show that reduced balance of the upper ankle significantly increases the frequency of accidents involving a sprained ankle, which is especially important in dance styles such as breaking, house, hip hop, contemporary dance and ballett. ‼️ So a balance training should be an integral part of every dancer's training‼️ But HOW can you train your balance exactly❓ Balance can be trained wherever you are - not only @ the gym. Level 1️⃣: basic exercise ➡️ One leg stand: Try to maintain your balance for 30 secs. Level 2️⃣: try to close your eyes. 🗝 The key here is to keep your body centred, no big movements with your arms and legs! Level 3️⃣: Reduce the contact points of the body with the floor or create an unstable support surface yourself by rolling up a towel to form a cylinder & stand on it. ➕ Equipment like balance pad or the Bosu ball works too. Level 4️⃣: Add coordinative exercises such as controlled movements with the arms, the free leg or even the head. 🦵Try to draw a horizontal figure eight in the air in front of you with the free leg, while one arm draws a large circle to the side and the other circles above your head. Give it a try and take your balance to the next level 💙 !
⚖ Maintaining BALANCE is something we are consta ⚖ Maintaining BALANCE is something we are constantly asked to do, especially when dancing. But WHAT is balance actually❓ 🚶‍♀️With every movement, our body has to maintain balance. With every movement, the centre of gravity of our body changes and our muscles actively work to keep us from falling. ℹ The small and low-lying muscles that form the supporting apparatus and keep our body balanced are especially active. Even when standing, the body has to constantly resist the forces acting on it, and the skeletal muscles have to constantly compensate by slightly changing their contractions. 💡 The fewer fixed points of contact the body has with the ground, the greater the requirement to maintain balance. 🧠 Balance is controlled by a complex interaction of several sensory systems. The sense of balance consists of the vestibular organ (vestibular sensory system), the sense of sight (visual system), the self-awareness of joint position (proprioceptive system) and the sense of touch (somatosensory sensory system). 🚫 The loss of a single sensory system can be largely compensated for by the other sensory systems. Thus, people with bilateral loss of the vestibular organ are able to perform movements with high balance requirements even when dancing, at least if there is no restriction of the other sensory systems.
Life is all about #balance ⚖ @shape magazine in Life is all about #balance ⚖ @shape magazine interviewed HE4DS @sophiela__ on balance training. The time where women's magazines are mostly full of diet tips and trying to fit into a beauty standard are (thankfully) over! 💪 We're glad that we got the chance to talk about a topic this important to a super broad readership. A topic that is not promoting the cliché of good looks, but that empowers long-term healthiness of movers of all kinds! 💙 Balance training is important for everybody, but ESPECIALLY #dancers benefit from it since you dramatically decrease the chance of injury. This is not only true for acute injuries (for instance twisted ankles) , but also chronic injuries that stem from constantly overloading your joints. (looking at you, knee problem-people 🧐) Thanks for the opportunity 🙏 Love to you all, keep your balance people! 💙
🇩🇪below, 🇬🇧 here: 😬You all know it 🇩🇪below, 🇬🇧 here: 😬You all know it, you have trained a new move or choreography intensively, and the next day you feel an intense pain between the shoulder blade and the spine. 🤓 In this case, probably a muscle has been overloaded and gone into a protective tension. You often get this muscular tension in supporting activities like in most Freezes and Air-Powermoves, as well as in handstyles like in Rocking, Waacking and Locking or head throwing choreos in commercial dance. ➡️ To help the healing process you can use the following pain star attachment technique with kinesiotape. ☝️Attention: Give the muscle the necessary time to get out of the tensioned position. So training yes, but only in a pain-free way! 🌴 We love the sustainable, eco-friendly tape by @stuetzpunkt_premiumtapes 💚 ____ 😬Jede:r Tänzer:in kennts: Du trainierst intensiv und am nächsten Tag tut dir die Schulter weh. Das passiert vor allem bei Handständen oder Freezes, Arm-lastigen Styles wie Rocking, Waacking oder Locking oder im Commercial bei dramatischen Kopf-Schmeiß-Moves. ☝️Der Grund: Der Muskel ist überlastet und begibt sich in eine Art schützende Spannung, damit du ihn nicht weiterhin überlasten kannst. ➡️In dem Fall hilft diese super einfache Taping-Technik. Alles was du dafür brauchst siehst du im Video. 🙌Achtung: Gib dir trotzdem Zeit zum Erholen und trainiere nicht, wenn du Schmerzen hast. Übungen für Schultermobility findet du übrigens auch auf unserem Kanal 💙
⭐BACKSTAGE HEALTHCARE is not about treating danc ⭐BACKSTAGE HEALTHCARE is not about treating dancers' problems🤕, as we know it from physiotherapy or ostheopathy. It is about preparing the dancers physically and mentally for their PERFORMANCE🚀💯, even if already injured, so they can show their full potential on the big stage💃🕺. 🎥 Here we show you a glimpse behind the scenes of our work at the @redbullbcone Cypher Germany 🇩🇪. 🙏 We would like to thank all the DANCERS for trusting our work 💙! 🙏🗣️ Also we want to give a shout out to the organisation team @redbullgermany @kevs.place @thomashergenroether @yipsilon @iamsebaa @eileencoco ! ➡️ Since 2019, we are continuously on site of the RB BC1 Cypher Germany and take care of the participating dancers. We believe that this event is a role model for other events and hope that in the future EVERY dance event will offer backstage healthcare for the participating dancers! 💫🔮
*repost cause we get asked about this a lot recent *repost cause we get asked about this a lot recently 👍 Do you have a "footwork thumb"? ⬇️In floor moves, the thumb gets lots of pressure. Especially in the middle-elevated position, the load can be extreme. 👌Treating the trigger points around the m. adductor pollicis and the m. opponent pollicis can help you ease the pain around the thumb and the inner wrist. What's your favorite footwork-hand? Flat or elevated? 🤔 ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 🎶 @trucruterence #wristpain #wristexercises #breaking #bgirl #bboy
