One of Tennessee Association of Dance’s past Executive Directors was deeply involved with the creation of Arts Ed Tennessee. It is a coalition of arts education advocates across artistic disciplines.
Since I am kind of a mystery to all of you out there in Tennessee dance-land, I thought you might want to know a little about me. Well, more than a little.
Tennessee Association of Dance (TAD) has created special portals for each membership type offering information relevant to members at that level. Emerging Dance Members will be able to gain access to college dance program data, instructions on ACT testing, scholarship and government tuition aid tips, health and injury prevention advice, and more. There is also information about Summer Intensives and other opportunities for young dancers.
Let’s admit it. If you are a dancer, your feet are not beautiful. It is something that all dancers have in common due to the stress they put upon them. It is something dancers are willing to suffer for their art. Because dancers are hard on their feet, they are more likely to suffer from bunions, Achilles tendonitis, Sesamoiditis, stress fractures, Metatarsalgia, Plantar Fasciitis, and sprained ankles.
