Nurture The Healthy Dancer®

Workshops are an effective way to translate and deliver scientific jargon into digestible information for dancers. Because of the vulnerable nature of dancers to perfectionism, disordered eating, and eating disorders, it’s critical that dancers, dance educators, and dance parents rely on sound sources for nutrition-, weight- and lifestyle-related education. Seeking education from a credentialed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RD or RDN) or Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist (LD or LDN) is recommended.

Nurture The Healthy Dancer®

Interactive workshops are completely customizable and designed to engage, educate, and motivate students and faculty. A 75-minute session (Q+A Included) teaches dancers how to:

• Maximize their plates to gain the nutrients their bodies need most.
• Optimize energy levels for performance.
• Build balanced meals that support training needs and muscle recovery.
• Choose healthy and convenient snacks.
• Reduce risk for injury.
• Prevent early-onset fatigue.
• Cultivate a positive relationship with food and body.
