Episode 75: Specificity in Dance Training
from DanceWell Podcast Hosted by Ellie Kusner and Marissa Schaeffer
In Episode 75: Specificity in Dance Training, Nico Kolokythas, ASSC, PhD explains the training principle of “specificity” and how it applies to dance, from many angles. We discuss general fitness parameters, why they matter and whether dancers typically meet standard benchmarks. Then, Nico explains a bit about early specialization and also diversification of movement. Finally we debate performance enhancement and how conditioning for dancers can realistically serve this aim.
