This third edition builds on that success by retaining its scientific perspective while making the material even more accessible to students and teachers and by bringing in a significant amount of new material.  What's New?  In an effort to further enhance learning, Dance Anatomy and Kinesiology offers a wealth of new material and tools to make this edition the best yet:     Nearly 300 anatomical illustrations-now in full color to clearly show muscle movements and technique considerations, setting the book apart from others in its field   A new introductory chapter to cover basic terminology all in one place   A new recurring Understanding Check element that helps students demonstrate their grasp of the material before moving on   An updated suite of online instructor and student ancillaries to support the text  New interactive lab activities delivered online through HKPropel More diverse dance styles addressed throughout the book and represented in photographs    The instructor guide features a sample syllabus and course outline, chapter outlines, lab assignments, and sample tests. A presentation package provides expanded chapter slides with more in-depth texts and additional graphics, now in color, that reinforce each chapter's key points.   Through HKPropel, students have access to interactive Understanding Check activities, flash cards, practice quizzes, and 19 video clips that demonstrate technique and offer correction guidance.   The final chapter is revised to provide a summary and applications, including more practical content in the form of summary figures or tables for bones, joints, muscle actions, and alignment evaluation, as well as sample mat exercises for dance conditioning. And throughout the book, Clippinger has updated content to simplify, add more practical material, and share best practices for injury prevention and rehabilitation.  Primary Focus  While much is new in this third edition, the book retains its emphasis on presenting the anatomical and kinesiological material that is essential for dancers to understand. The text includes descriptions of joint structure, key muscles, movement analysis, sample strength and flexibility exercises, common alignment problems, select joint mechanics, and special considerations for dance for each region of the body.   The new edition still features the Concept Demonstration and Dance Cues special elements. The former provides movement experiences for dancers to better understand potentially difficult concepts, while the latter helps the dancer reflect on the anatomical basis of commonly used cues used in teaching dance technique.  Empowers Instructors and Dancers  This new edition of Dance Anatomy and Kinesiology will give teachers a clearer picture of the anatomical and kinesiological factors that aid in generating technique cues and identifying technique problems, and it will help them become more effective and empower dancers to realize their potential and artistic vision.

In Dynamic Alignment Through Imagery, Third Edition, Franklin-an internationally renowned teacher, dancer, and choreographer who has been sharing his imagery techniques for more than 35 years-teaches the use of imagery to increase self-awareness, improve body image, and apply anatomical and biomechanical principles for more efficient movement.  This expanded new edition includes    more than 600 anatomical imagery exercises to improve posture and body alignment, release excess tension, and prevent injuries; over 500 full-color illustrations to help readers visualize the exercises and use them in various contexts; four audio files containing guided imagery exercises led by Franklin and set to music; and updated chapters throughout the book, including new material and exercises to address fasciae and connective tissue.  \"The pictures and the words in your mind influence the feelings in your body, which in turn feed your thoughts and mental pictures,\" Franklin says. \"To create powerful and dynamic alignment, you need to fertilize your mind and body with constructive information and weed out destructive thoughts.\"  This book will help readers do just that as they discover their natural flexibility and increase their power to move. Franklin expertly guides readers through foundational concepts of posture, dynamic alignment, and imagery; explores different types of imagery and guidelines for using them; and delves into biomechanical and anatomical principles, including the body's center and gravity, the laws of motion and force systems, and joint and muscle function. He then provides exercises for anatomical imagery, covering every area of the body from head to toe. The book closes with two critical chapters on defining dynamic alignment and on integrating dynamic alignment exercises into workouts and programs.  Dynamic Alignment Through Imagery, Third Edition, will help readers experience the biomechanical and anatomical principles that are crucial to athletes, dancers, other performing artists, and yoga and Pilates practitioners. The techniques and exercises presented in the book will guide readers in improving their posture-and will positively affect their thoughts and attitudes about themselves and others and help them feel better, both mentally and physically.  CE exam available! For certified professionals, a companion continuing education exam can be completed after reading this book.

Elementary Dance Education helps them do all four. And it does so in a unique way, shaping its movement activities around nature themes. In fact, all of the learning experiences are based on different aspects of nature, as the text intertwines children's innate curiosity and observation skills with the processes of scientific inquiry and artistic creation.  Elementary Dance Education helps teachers develop the instructional skills they need to incorporate dance into their curricula, providing over 70 movement activities and exercises for students in grades K-6. The activities, which stimulate children's minds and bodies through the process of collaborative dance creation, include variations for younger and older students. Ideas are offered for partner or small-group explorations, making the activities more inclusive and appropriate for each age group.  Another unique feature of this book is the original music accompanying it. Teachers have access to 90 minutes of dynamic sounds, rhythmic percussion, captivating electro-acoustic compositions, and gentle atmospheric selections, delivered through HKPropel, to accompany the learning experiences. The compositions support students' movement explorations, conveying a range of images and emotions and inspiring a variety of responses.  In addition, Elementary Dance Education offers the following:     Discussion questions for each exercise, prompting in-class discussion and student exploration; the questions come with sample answers or ideas to encourage student responses and spur a fruitful discussion 75 photos and several diagrams to illustrate positions and poses and stimulate ideas for the movement exercises Journal prompts, tailored for older and younger children, to give students the opportunity to respond and reflect on the learning experiences Video links (provided in HKPropel) to help illustrate concepts and exercises, offer examples, or encourage students to watch for something specific in an activity  The book's first chapter introduces the basic elements of dance; the remaining seven chapters offer movement exercises in various areas of nature: plants, animals, water, earth, sky, people, and other wonders.  This book is a rich and easy-to-implement resource not only for elementary dance educators and physical educators but for classroom teachers as well. The exercises in this book use a template for movement discovery in which students will observe, explore, create, and share. This template \"can be applied to all areas of the curriculum,\" says author Janice Pomer. \"It's an invaluable tool for student engagement, satisfying children's capacity to watch, wonder, move, interact, discover, and share.\"  Elementary Dance Education will promote children's creativity and curiosity, engage and challenge their minds and bodies, and help them learn to appreciate and support each other as they work together exploring, creating, and sharing their ideas and insights about the natural world through dance.

So, through Elementary School Wellness Education, the two authors provide a blueprint, complete with lesson plans, for teachers to fuse health education and physical education into one elementary school class.  \"Students should be educated in a more holistic manner,\" says Cummiskey. \"We applied the concept of school wellness education at the elementary level, which has components of both traditional health education and physical education.\"  Elementary School Wellness Education offers the following:     37 detailed lesson plans for grades K-5 (19 lessons for K-2 and 18 lessons for grades 3-5) that are tied to SHAPE America Outcomes and National Health Education Performance Indicators Clear instruction on how to apply the plans, making it perfect for both preservice and in-service teachers More than 70 lesson plan handouts (with four-color graphics), available in the HKPropel platform, that are easy for teachers to print A test package, presentation package, and instructor guide that make this ideal for existing and emerging teacher education courses  A typical School Wellness Education (SWE) lesson combines classroom-based learning activities-such as discussions, worksheets, and videos-with physical activity. All the lessons in the book take place in the gymnasium, so there's no need for a separate health education classroom. In addition, the SWE approach helps teachers maximize their instruction time by meeting multiple learning standards simultaneously.  \"The lessons are learning focused, with each activity carefully aligned to the objectives,\" says Cleland Donnelly. \"Moreover, they're fun. Students aren't sitting in a traditional classroom learning health; they're doing it in the gym.\" SWE also uses traditional PE equipment-and the gym-in new and creative ways, she adds. \"This is especially important in schools that lack a separate health education classroom.\"  Elementary School Wellness Education addresses emergent pedagogies such as skill-based education, universal design for learning, social and emotional learning, and social justice, helping both in-service and preservice teachers understand how to use and benefit from these pedagogical approaches. It also guides readers in how to teach wellness education online as effectively as face-to-face. Teachers will learn how to teach the content in person, online, or in a hybrid approach.  \"The good news for teachers is that SWE is not a dramatic departure from existing instruction,\" says Cummiskey. \"Students are still moving and being taught in the gymnasium, but now health content and skills are being infused into all the lessons.\"  The book, he says, is also suitable for use by classroom teachers looking to promote wellness or incorporate additional physical activity into their students' days. \"The intent is to imbue students with the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to lead a healthy life into and through adulthood,\" he says.

Producing Dance takes a unique path-one that includes the voice of the choreographer and dancer in the journey to performance.  In doing so, the authors support the process of the entire creative team and cover all aspects of a production. They put those aspects in the context of real-world application, in sequence with other components, creating a toolbox for success for all involved. By the end of the book, readers will have discovered the many options available to them in the production setting and be able to choose the tool most needed at the time.  Critical Guidance That Sets This Book Apart Through its collaborative approach, Producing Dance goes beyond the performance, covering evaluation, reflection, and opportunities for growth. And it offers guidance in two critical areas that are not addressed in other dance production books:    Creating dance performances in nontraditional spaces such as site-specific venues, dance and culture festivals, and audience-immersive experiences Supporting the development of an artistic career through acquiring business skills such as fundraising, grant writing, and performing business analyses   Ancillaries Producing Dance comes with an instructor guide, a test bank, a PowerPoint presentation package, and HKPropel Access. Through HKPropel, students will find supplemental content and study aids:  Application activities for each chapter, allowing students to practice the concepts discussed in the chapter Real-world examples with explanations Links to websites that further illustrate concepts Virtual flash cards to help students study and retain key terms   Parts of the Book The text is presented in four parts. Part I guides readers in balancing and integrating artistic ideas with logistical considerations to create a clear and unified vision. Part II explores the process of realizing that vision through a collaborative and creative process. In part III, the knowledge gained in the first two parts is put into action as performance takes center stage. In part IV, readers learn how to continue to grow beyond the performance through a variety of pathways that deepen understanding and open up future opportunities.  Realizing Vision The journey from an idea to a fully produced vision can be daunting. Producing Dance makes that journey not only doable but also enjoyable. It provides readers the understanding and tools they need to realize their vision, explore and develop their voice, and further their growth and career development.

This third edition builds on that success by retaining its scientific perspective while making the material even more accessible to students and teachers and by bringing in a significant amount of new material.  What's New?  In an effort to further enhance learning, Dance Anatomy and Kinesiology offers a wealth of new material and tools to make this edition the best yet:   Nearly 300 anatomical illustrations-now in full color to clearly show muscle movements and technique considerations, setting the book apart from others in its field   A new introductory chapter to cover basic terminology all in one place   A new recurring Understanding Check element that helps students demonstrate their grasp of the material before moving on   An updated suite of online instructor and student ancillaries to support the text  New interactive lab activities delivered online through HKPropel More diverse dance styles addressed throughout the book and represented in photographs    The instructor guide features a sample syllabus and course outline, chapter outlines, lab assignments, and sample tests. A presentation package provides expanded chapter slides with more in-depth texts and additional graphics, now in color, that reinforce each chapter's key points.   Through HKPropel, students have access to interactive Understanding Check activities, flash cards, practice quizzes, and 19 video clips that demonstrate technique and offer correction guidance.   The final chapter is revised to provide a summary and applications, including more practical content in the form of summary figures or tables for bones, joints, muscle actions, and alignment evaluation, as well as sample mat exercises for dance conditioning. And throughout the book, Clippinger has updated content to simplify, add more practical material, and share best practices for injury prevention and rehabilitation.  Primary Focus  While much is new in this third edition, the book retains its emphasis on presenting the anatomical and kinesiological material that is essential for dancers to understand. The text includes descriptions of joint structure, key muscles, movement analysis, sample strength and flexibility exercises, common alignment problems, select joint mechanics, and special considerations for dance for each region of the body.   The new edition still features the Concept Demonstration and Dance Cues special elements. The former provides movement experiences for dancers to better understand potentially difficult concepts, while the latter helps the dancer reflect on the anatomical basis of commonly used cues used in teaching dance technique.  Empowers Instructors and Dancers  This new edition of Dance Anatomy and Kinesiology will give teachers a clearer picture of the anatomical and kinesiological factors that aid in generating technique cues and identifying technique problems, and it will help them become more effective and empower dancers to realize their potential and artistic vision.

Whether they are new to dance or already have some experience, students will be able to grasp the foundational concepts of dance as they consider where dance movement comes from and why humans are compelled to move, and they will explore movement activities from the perspectives of a dancer, a choreographer, and an observer. The result is a well-rounded educational experience for students to build on, whether they want to further explore performance or choreography or otherwise factor dance into their college or career goals.   Specifically designed to meet national and state dance education standards, Discovering Dance offers a ready-to-implement dance curriculum that is foundational and flexible. It fosters students' discovery of dance through creating, performing, analyzing, understanding, responding to, connecting to, and evaluating dance and dance forms.   The book is divided into four parts and 17 chapters. Part I focuses on the foundational concepts of dance and art processes, wellness, safety, dance elements, and composition. Part II delves into dance in society, including historical, social, traditional, and cultural dances. In part III, students explore dance on stage-including ballet, modern dance, jazz dance, tap, and hip-hop-and examine aspects of performance and production. Part IV rounds out the content by preparing students for dance in college or as a career and throughout life.   The chapter content helps students      discover dance genres;   explore each genre through its history, artists, vocabulary, and significant works;   apply dance concepts through movement and through written, oral, visual, technology, and multimedia assignments, thus deepening their knowledge and abilities;   enhance learning by completing a portfolio assignment and review quiz for each chapter; and   gain insight into dance artists, companies, and events through the Did You Know? and Spotlight elements.    Learning objectives, vocabulary terms, and an essential question open each chapter. Throughout the chapters are four types of activities: Discover, Explore, Journal, and Research. The activities and assignments meet the needs of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners and help students explore dance through vocabulary, history, culture, creation, performance, and choreography. A comprehensive glossary further facilitates learning.   The personal discovery process is greatly aided by technology-including video clips that demonstrate dance genres, forms, styles, and techniques as well as learning experiences that require taking photos and creating time lines, graphs, drawings, diagrams, or soundscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUMAN KINETICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599344574711,"sku":"9781718220836","price":240.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/4630\/9367\/files\/9781718220836.jpg?v=1782627671"},{"product_id":"9781718215818","title":"Functional Strength Training for Physical Education","description":"\u003cp\u003eFunctional strength training is one of the most beneficial forms of fitness training, but it is often not included in a secondary physical education curriculum. Lack of equipment or weight rooms can be an issue, and uncertainty about how to teach students correct techniques can be intimidating.

These games develop quick thinking, group thinking, movement communication, and an awareness of the needs and movements of others.   The next two chapters explore solo and duo improvisations as well as group creative tasks. Each improvisation task has a brief description, an image, numbered tasks for clarity, a teaching tip, and ideas to take the task further or develop the dance idea as appropriate.   Chapter 5 explores how the physical and aural setting can lead to creating interesting and considered dance. Chapter 6 encourages dancers to use movements, phrases, and sequences created in previous tasks to develop and structure the movement material into something new.   \"These games, tasks, ideas, stimuli, and developments are here to give instructors and students a little push to find creative vision, explore movement, and discover how these ideas can be developed, adapted, and structured,\" says Reeve. \"Instructors will find new ways to help their dancers create original movements through both individual and group activities, and students will gain inspiration through using these improvisations.\"  More Dance Improvisations promotes creativity that leads to innovative breakthroughs for students from middle school through college.

Defining embodiment, though, can be quite tricky, because much of what is taught in western societies about the body devalues the felt experience.         The categories of formal learning, particularly anatomy and physiology, are taught with the fundamental source being cadavers (dead bodies), and conceptualizations that do not include our own vitality, or life force.  Without the felt experience, embodiment is just another concept that can be discussed ad nauseum. The felt experience (or \"phenomenology\" in academic-speak) is the path away from these endless discussions and conceptual befuddlement.        This book provides a basic training on how to become aware of our physiological functioning and our sense of vitality. A part of this training comes from becoming hyper-aware of how we breathe. This awareness makes it possible to feel our own organs and how they function and interrelate. To help us refine our awarenesses of our own organs we are entirely fortunate to learn and practice methods, developed over thousands of years by Indian and Chinese cultures.             With these fundamentals this book leads us through a series of connected experiences using mudras to feel our organs, the flows of our life force (Qi) and the flow of that life force through our meridians. From that we learn to feel our own chakras and sushumna (central channel), and our ability to perceive our connections with our environment and ecosystem. This then provides the basis for a body sense of our spiritual existence and development. Thus the definition of embodiment evolves into deeper awareness within our bodies and deeper connection to the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HANDSPRING PUBLISHING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599580078327,"sku":"9781909141865","price":78.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/4630\/9367\/files\/9781909141865.jpg?v=1782633733"},{"product_id":"9781909141926","title":"Freedom to Move","description":"\u003cp\u003eFreedom to Move is an evidence informed practical resource which provides movement therapists of all disciplines with an exercise blueprint for rehabilitating spinal pain and many related injuries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn essence, Freedom to Move describes what goes wrong in the spine and what to do about it.

In addition, students can learn a host of other skills, strategies, and concepts that can transfer not only to other games but also to other life situations.   Playing Fair shows teachers how to create the learning environments typical of the Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) approach. This text takes the TGfU approach to a new level, incorporating the development of group processes and democratic behaviors that promote personal growth as well as the ability to thrive in group situations.    Antisocial behavior and bullying are ongoing problems in schools today. The concepts and practical ideas for lessons offered in Playing Fair address those problems proactively as students learn about conflict resolution, inclusion, democratic decision making, leadership, and bullying. The topics in this book come together in developing the cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains, all primary goals of the physical education curriculum.   A Peek Inside Playing Fair  Playing Fair offers teachers these benefits:    * Practical classroom stories showing teachers how they can apply theory and learning situations to their own students and school context    * Activities that include modifications so teachers can apply the games with students of all developmental levels    * Learning checks consisting of questions for teachers to ask their students in order to assess their learning    * Key Concepts, a special element that calls out important concepts for readers    The first part of the book covers the process of inventing games and the democratic principles involved, how social justice can be taught and learned through games, understanding the TGfU classification system, curriculum design, and pedagogical principles. The remaining 10 chapters show how to implement the concepts presented in the earlier chapters. Readers learn how to invent and play a variety of games: target games, striking games, net\/wall games, and invasion games.   What Your Students Will Gain   Implementing the principles advocated in this book will help learners in these ways:    * Better understand and appreciate the constructs of game play through external and internalized schemas    * Transfer concepts, strategies, tactics, and skills within and among game categories    * Improve their performance and become more engaged in their own learning    * Become more self-effective and empowered as they understand and value the processes of decision making    * Understand how democracy works from the bottom up    * Grasp that democracy is tenuous, that it breaks down in the absence of active social justice, and that we all have a role and responsibility in constructing and reconstructing it, moment by moment   Playing Fairwill help students gain a better understanding of themselves and others, and it will make them sensitive to issues such as social justice, collaboration, negotiation, inclusiveness, and fairneess. Students will learn to make informed decisions in the context of their invented games and to make intentional, reasoned inquiries about game situations, which they can then transfer to other areas of their lives.   Bringing Systemic Change and Facilitating Personal Growth   This book will help teachers and coaches teach the principles of game play and those of democracy and citizenship in concrete ways. They will contribute to systemic change in the school culture-a culture in which students learn to create their own games and gamelike situations wherein concepts, skills, and strategies can be learned in context through a process called democracy in action.    The bottom line is simple. Playing Fair brings out inherent qualities that have been part of games since the beginning of humankind: play, fun, challenge, inventiveness, teamwork, friendship, and quick thinking. Along the way, games offer opportunities for moral and spiritual development-and the games in Playing Fair offer all that and more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUMAN KINETICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599768068343,"sku":"9781450435437","price":56.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/4630\/9367\/files\/9781450435437.jpg?v=1782642692"},{"product_id":"9781450437165","title":"Studying Dance","description":"\u003cp\u003eText for undergraduate (and performing arts high school) students that introduces them to the profession and to dance in postsecondary programs as well as other dance experiences on campus and in the community.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUMAN KINETICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599768101111,"sku":"9781450437165","price":88.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/4630\/9367\/files\/9781450437165.jpg?v=1782642693"},{"product_id":"9781450441421","title":"Enhancing Children's Cognition With Physical Activity Games","description":"\u003cp\u003eA text for undergraduate methods courses.

Between managing difficult behavior and adapting lessons for students with diverse needs, teachers have their hands full. Teaching Children and Adolescents Physical Education: Becoming a Master Teacher has been helping both new and experienced physical educators meet these challenges for many years, and this revised edition has been updated to address many of the new challenges that have emerged in the past decade. Expanded to address teaching across elementary, middle, and high school, this classic resource demonstrates the techniques and skills master teachers rely on. Many of these skills are illustrated with videotapes of actual K-12 teachers in action.    This already-successful text goes beyond pedagogy to include concrete curriculum strategies for making classes vibrant, fun, and developmentally appropriate. Written in conversational language, the book is readily applicable.   Teaching Children and Adolescents Physical Education has been refreshed to be more valuable than ever to veteran and future physical educators navigating the elementary, middle, and high school environment. New features include the following:    * New research and examples from the world of secondary physical education    * Technology tips and app ideas contributed by real physical educators    * Linked directly to national standards and grade-level outcomes (SHAPE America, 2014), a new approach to planning and teaching lessons to meet the needs of all students    * Many sample task sheets and assessment examples for middle and high school    In addition, this resource features three new chapters that add even more depth to the topics covered. The chapters address long-term planning, writing, and teaching the lesson plan.    The value of this book can be attributed to the authors' years of experience teaching physical education in elementary, middle, and high school. George Graham, Eloise Elliott, and Steve Palmer understand all aspects of quality physical education and the teaching challenges that come with the territory-because they have been there. Emphasizing real-world strategies, the authors weave instructional scenarios throughout the book. Readers will see in action the decision-making process master teachers go through when writing and teaching lesson plans. Because every class is different, this resource also highlights how to plan for diverse students and how to adjust lessons accordingly.    The text is packed with tried-and-true advice for motivating students to practice, building positive feelings, observing and analyzing, providing feedback, and assessing students through formative assessment. Examples show what effective physical education instruction really looks like in secondary gymnasiums and on playgrounds. Rich with firsthand advice and insight, this book will guide educators toward becoming master teachers of physical education.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUMAN KINETICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599768527095,"sku":"9781450452939","price":180.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/4630\/9367\/files\/9781450452939.jpg?v=1782642707"},{"product_id":"9781450457415","title":"Motor Learning and Control for Dance","description":"\u003cp\u003eA textbook for dance students in undergraduate dance programs.

Practical information on all aspects of safe practice that is not too simplistic or complex has not always been easy to find.    Enter Safe Dance Practice, by Edel Quin, Sonia Rafferty, and Charlotte Tomlinson. With nearly 60 years of collective experience in the dance profession as creative artists, teachers, and researchers, the authors translate extensive research and evidence-based practice in order to present the principles of safe practice that are essential to any dance experience.   Guidelines in Implementing Principles   The authors offer evidence-based guidelines on implementing diverse principles in practice, informing and supporting dance practitioners in an ever-growing pool of styles and genres. These guidelines and principles are of use not only to dancers and dance educators but also to choreographers, rehearsal and company directors, and studio managers. The information is underpinned by research in dance science and applied with contextual delivery in mind, ensuring an engaging experience for those accessing the book.   Benefits to Readers   The authors guide readers in these aspects:    * Facilitating a physically and psychologically safe and supportive dance environment    * Understanding principles of anatomy and biomechanically sound alignment    * Implementing effective physiological preparation and progression through warm-up and cool-down protocols as well as supplementary fitness and conditioning    * Minimizing risk of injury and understanding injury management aligned with appropriate rest and recovery strategies    * Incorporating advice on nutrition and hydration for enhanced performance and healthy dance practice    * Tailoring delivery to the specific needs and demographics of participants for diverse engagement with dance    * Evaluating personal practice in order to assess and monitor effective application of the principles   Holistic and Inclusive Approach  Safe Dance Practice takes a multidisciplinary approach to the components of dancing safely, integrating principles without compromising dancers' artistic creativity and expression. The authors examine not only the immediate variables associated with occurrence of injury but also delve into contributing factors, such as nutrition, alignment, rest and recovery, and supplementary fitness and conditioning.    This comprehensive approach is evident throughout, including a dedicated chapter that will help readers apply the principles to dancers of diverse ages, standards, and physical abilities.   Features of the Book  Safe Dance Practice includes    * diagrams that illustrate ideal and compensated alignment and posture, which readers can apply when assessing all dancers in all genres;    * case studies that help readers contextualize their learning as they see it portrayed in an applied environment;    * at-a-glance chapter summaries and highlighted key points to help readers retain criticaal information;    * cross-referencing to guide readers to related information in other areas of the book; and    * sources for additional information.   Safe Dance Practice contains 11 chapters, which can be accessed sequentially or studied in any order. The first eight chapters present environmental, anatomical, physical, and psychological principles of safe dance practice. Each chapter includes strategies and examples for putting the principles into practice in relation to dance styles and settings. Chapter 9 focuses on injury awareness and management, and chapter 10 offers guidelines on adapting the principles to a range of dance populations. Chapter 11 helps readers to understand the value of continued monitoring of their practice and includes a checklist of safe practices. Six appendixes supply a series of aids and templates to use as learning resources for ongoing professional development.    This text offers pragmatic recommendations from the authors, who combine scientific fact with experience. The principles are presented in a practical fashion with many specific examples. The take-home messages, checklists, and templates make this text accessible and valuable.   Bridging the Gap Between Science and Practice  Safe Dance Practice bridges the gap between academic research and its application for dancers and educators in all levels and genres. It illuminates the principles of working safely in dance so as to support best practice and encourages all dance practitioners and leaders to better understand, communicate, and apply principles of safe dance practice.    With its applied perspective on dance science, Safe Dance Practice will resonate with readers who want their dance experience to be factually endorsed while allowing sufficient scope for artistic expression. Such evidence-based practice will enable readers to access wider sources of information to aid their ongoing development whilst empowering them to take responsibility for their own safe dance practice and that of others with whom they interact.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HUMAN KINETICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599771574519,"sku":"9781450496452","price":96.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/4630\/9367\/files\/9781450496452.jpg?v=1782642777"},{"product_id":"9781462532674","title":"Physical Activity and Learning After School","description":"\u003cp\u003eEvery school day, more than 10 million children attend after-school programs in the United States.
