#TopTipTuesday

In the mood for dancing?…

Our mood, state of mind and particularly stress levels can all contribute to susceptibility to injury by affecting our ability to concentrate on dancing with correct technique and execution.

Try to focus your attention while working, avoid unimportant distractions and take regular breaks to relax.

Today’s Top Tip is from SiDI co-founder Sonia Rafferty.

Sonia is a dance scientist, teacher, performer and choreographer, and co-author of Safe Dance Practice an Applied Dance Science Perspective, our core text.

She has been a member of the Dance Faculty at TrinityLaban  since 1990 and is now a Senior Lecturer, teaching dance technique, performance, choreography and dance health and wellbeing, so she has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to useful tips.
