Wellness Insight: Fuel Your Body
Performing artists place significant physical demands on their bodies through training, rehearsals, and performances. Supporting overall wellness includes understanding how factors like nutrition and energy availability can influence health and performance.
Research examining the energy status of pre-professional and professional dancers notes that adequate and balanced nutrition plays an important role in helping fuel classes and rehearsals and supporting performance demands.
Learning about these factors through credible research and consulting qualified professionals can help artists better understand how physical wellness connects to their creative work.
If you have questions about nutrition, energy levels, or overall health related to dance or performance training, we encourage you to consider speaking with a qualified healthcare professional or registered dietitian.
