Equity-Informed Dancer Wellness
Journal of Dance Education, v23 n3 p243-253 2023
This article examines the current construction of dancer wellness and argues that the focus on intrapersonal aspects of safety, health, and wellness should be balanced with a stronger consideration of interpersonal, institutional, and systemic aspects. The author explores how infusing dancer wellness with equity literacy can support individual and institutional aims to dismantle structural barriers and encourage equity and wellness in dance contexts. Equity-informed dancer wellness is advanced as a route to healthy dance practice and social justice.
