Nico Kolokythas explains the development of the 11+ Dance at Elmhurst Ballet School. In a previous episode, we discussed the development of this injury prevention intervention at Elmhurst, and this follow up episode explores how the research has evolved and how it can be beneficial. We look at what is happening now at the school, the importance of keeping play and fun, and using the 11+ as a framework as opposed to a protocol. Nico addresses the attention, criticisms, and debate following the release of the publication, as well as shedding further light with anecdotal data from the school. This episode also considers the role of coaching, communication channels, environment, and future studies in the works.

Kathleen Gaines discusses her viral article on dancers’ mental health, and the subsequent dance science research into mental health for dancers. Over the last 10 years, Kathleen has written more than 150 articles on dance for Dance Magazine, Pointe, Dance Spirit, and Dance Teacher magazines. As a result she has had the opportunity to conduct nearly 1,000 interviews with dancers, teachers and dance medical professionals. Minding the Gap was founded as a reaction to the outpouring of support Kathleen received after she posted the article Why are we still so bad at addressing dancers' mental health on the Dance Magazine website in the summer of 2017. Her ambition is to enact a movement which results in mental health being regarded with the same seriousness as physical health in dance culture.

Archie James discusses his journey through ballet training to physiotherapy, reflecting on new knowledge and learned experience. Archie chats about what he wishes he knew as a ballet dancer, what he would have done differently, and changes that may encourage this in a pre professional environment such as in sports psychology. We look at potential routes into physiotherapy for dancers, and the application process, as well as the merits of a background in dance. Importantly, we focus on the personal development involved in stepping away from ballet, in critical thinking, research, evaluating information, autonomy, and mindset, ultimately advocating for more science integration into ballet training for empowerment.
