As the dance season is winding down and we move into the summer months I always get lots of questions surrounding off season conditioning. Questions like What conditioning should I be doing? How many days should I be working out? Is running the best way for me to get cardio in? And the list continues. On this week’s Episode of The Dance Docs I sit down with Dr. Kathleen Davenport to discuss your questions surrounding cross conditioning, and discuss these questions as well as ideas that we give to many of the dancers that we treat.

On this week’s episode of The Dance Docs I am joined by Jay DIcharry PT out of Oregon. While Jay may be known in the running community for his book Running Rewired, he has spent plenty of time working with dancers, and has an in-depth knowledge of lower extremity kinematics. He helps to paint an understanding of how the foot and hip function together and can independently work as drivers of the lower limb, we dive into the spiraling needed for the lower extremity and why the correction of lifting your arches could be locking up a dancer's ability to move freely. I loved my conversation with Jay and I hope that you do too!

On this week’s episode of The Dance Docs Dr. Davenport and I sat down to discuss some popular but unpopular topics such as when to use pain theories when treating patients, why are we still taking weight on screening tools, and is it worth the risk for a dancer with a history of injuries to attend a performing arts high school? We thought it was important to start answering some of these harder topics for you that historically avoided or pushed off to the side. I hope you enjoy our conversation.

On this week’s episode Dr. Kat PT, and Dr. Davenport MD take a look back over our past COVID-19 episodes and update information based on what we now know about the virus, what we have seen work as dancers return to the studio, and what we may need to still consider. We also revisit return to studio conditioning as we are hearing more and more about stress injuries during return to dance.

In some recent interviews with dancers Dr. Davenport MD and Dr. Kat PT realized that dancers have been limiting and modifying their movement much more than we expected. Whether it was due to space, floor surface or just some extra time off dancers have decreased their jumping, and big movement across the floor. This is something that many dance medicine professionals were concerned about when we realized the length of time dancers would be out of the studios due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As dancers begin to transition back into the studios whether it’s a professional dancer returning for rehearsals, a collegiate level dancer returning for the fall semester, or a studio dancer ramping up their training for the year; there is a high risk for stress injuries. Dr Davenport and I discuss two stress related injuries that we are concerned about seeing, how they develop, and how to progress back in a safe manner to avoid them.
