2. Teach Anatomy from a Young Age: Incorporating anatomical concepts from a young age can help set a dancer up to be more efficient and injury-free. It's like building a building with no foundation, but when Dance Science is implemented at a young age, the foundation of the building is stronger.
3. Join a Dance Science Organization & Begin Reading Scientific Research: IADMS is an excellent choice of an organization to join if you're interested in reading up on Dane Science research. They offer flexible membership options through a tiered system.
4. “Experiencing the Anatomy” Lessons: After teaching an anatomical concept (such as on an anatomy app), it's a good idea to translate the concept into a movement practice so your students can learn to experience their own anatomy.
5. Cognitive Psychology & Motor Learning: After taking my NDEO class on the brain & how learning works (plus my Ph.D. courses on learning), I am utterly convinced that every educator should have basic knowledge in Cognitive Psychology & Motor Learning. You can be super knowledgeable on Dance & all of its complex facets, but if you don't know how to deliver your information to your students, they won't digest it.
